Mandatory Disinfection Policy

Users are responsible for safe scanning, including disinfecting all equipment. Baylor requires a mask at all times. Participants must wear masks while in the scanner and the researcher must wear a mask in the control room while scanning. THE METAL NOSE PIECE OF MASK MUST BE REMOVED PRIOR TO ENTRY TO SCANNER. Disinfecting wipes have been placed in the scanner rooms. Before and after scanning, disinfect any items and surfaces you or the participant will touch during the session including but not limited to:

  1. The handle to the scanner room
  2. The squeeze bulb and cord
  3. The inside and outside of the head coil you are using, including places you as a researcher touch to plug in and remove the coil
  4. Phantoms you may have used
  5. The buttons on the scanner for moving the bed
  6. Sponge used under the participant’s legs
  7. Wipe down all sponges and immobilization equipment used. If sponges are porous please use linen or paper for parts that touch the patient.
  8. Any button boxes or other accessories that are used in your experiment
