**7.2. Limitations of the study**

This study was conducted exclusively in the Korle Bu Teaching Hospital with a study popu‐ lation of thirty one radiographers. Although KBTH is the leading referral hospital in Ghana, making generalizations about radiographers nationwide has to be done with caution since the sample may not be truly representative of the entire population. There are a very limited number of MRI scanners in the country with the one at Korle – Bu Teaching Hospital being the first. Hence this might not reflect the safety practice that take place at the other units since the other few may have the different designs which may meet international standards
