Mass General Brigham relies on a wide range of professionals, including doctors, nurses, business people, tech experts, researchers, and systems analysts to advance our mission.

MGB backlog on MRI appointments is less than desirable for best outcomes. We are looking to expand into hours currently not serviced in Belmont and schedule non contrast exams with a MR Technologist and MR Tech Aide.
