Incorrect diagnosis
◆ Diagnosis should be confirmed by a second contrast and/or a
different orientation.
CAUTION
Poor image quality! Wrong image position!
Incorrect diagnosis
◆ Prior to the examination, inform patients about movements
and their negative effects on the measurement.
◆ Ensure that the patient does not move during the
measurement.
◆ Monitor the patient during the MR examination.
CAUTION
Imprecise localization due to patient movement during
functional MR imaging (fMRI)!

Incorrect assignment of active brain areas
◆ Prior to the examination, inform patients about movements
and their negative effects on the measurement.
◆ Use Siemens scan protocols with motion correction.
◆ Monitor the patient to ensure that the task is performed
