MR is a powerful imaging machine depend on the radio wave, unlike the other modalities which depend on the ionizing radiation. However, there are different sources of risk with magnetic resonance imaging, which the health providers should aware of (Dempsey, Condon, & Hadley, 2002). One of the main risks is ferromagnetic metal objects which can be projectiles with a strong static field. As the MRI develops and the magnetic field increases from 1.5 Tesla to 3 Tesla and more, as the power to pull the ferromagnetic objects toward a magnetic field has become stronger (Westbrook, Roth, & Talbot, 2011). The patient safety is the most important concern in MRI besides the diagnosis. The purpose of this project is to make an audio reminder can be applied
