Background: Technologists are exposed to a strong magnetic field (1.5-3.0 Tesla), higher than the earth magnetic field (≈0.5mT). In addition to that, the exposure to the radiofrequency (RF) may create currents producing skin burns. This study's objective was to assess the magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) safety practices in specific departments in Saudi Arabia in the Riyadh region, evaluate the incidence of biological effects and health implications of the electromagnetic fields present during MR scans, and to detect the occupational hazards. Methods: A survey questionnaire was designed and used to stimulate the target population's views on aspects of MRI safety and detected risks. The survey's target population includes consultants, radiologists, technologists, patients, and others who underwent MRI procedures. Results: A total of 28 technologists were responded from the five hospitals. The study results showed that 50% of the technologist reported various levels of effects, including vertigo and lack of concentration. It is well documented that exposure to MRI requires special consideration due to high magnetic field exposure. Conclusions: This study's main findings are that radiology nurses and patients in MRI units are highly exposed to the magnetic field, especially before and after MRI examination. Any department did not report projectile hazards. Staff is exposed to various degrees of radiation risks. No incident or accident was reported in all investigated hospitals. The staff is well protected in light of the current practice.
