True, usually there is no such thing as an emergency MRI. A CT, etc. is used to rule out before use of MRI, as well they are usually transferred to another device before going to an MRI.

The point I was attempting to make is remember another spinal immobilization device. It has been proven to be more beneficial to the patient, quicker and easier.

of coarse i still use them when i can...but i usually get outnumbered on the decision and end up using the LSB.

Rid,

Are you suggesting that when I transfer an immobilized patient to a flight crew that I should remove my scoop and take it back?
