Patient-Reported Experience Measure (PREM) tool takes feedback from patients and checks whether staff have enquired about safety parameters while undergoing the diagnostic test, thereby safeguarding the patients against any potential hazards. Objective of study to develop a context-specific PREM tool for MRI safety through constructive feedback from patients METHODOLOGY: Phase 1 expert group was formed and focused group discussions (FGDs) conducted to develop a Standard Operating Procedure (SOP) and the PREM Questionnaire tool. Phase 2 and phase 3, multiphasic study conducted in 15 hospitals, India with good geographical distr
