Membership is organised on the basis of each MRI unit registering with the Association, every site nominating a person to receive correspondence. Membership is however welcomed from representatives of companies and organisations with an interest in magnetic resonance as well as from individuals not currently employed in an MR unit, or those who would prefer to have their own private subscription.
Regional groups are in the process of being formed to allow more frequent meetings at a local level.
The Association has a newsletter edited by Andrew Heath and also regular pages in Synergy and Clinical MRI both for general information and for technical papers. The Policy Board has now assisted in the organisation of seven validated courses targeted at radiographers working in MR, leading to the award of certificates, diplomas and masters degrees. Between them, these courses are structured to allow at distance learning similar to the Open University format or day release schemes. All courses give students the opportunity to work towards the award of an MSc in magnetic resonance. Other courses are in the planning stage with the aim of offering a variety of study formats at different locations throughout the country.
