Abstract
The purpose of the optimal environment of the MRI room to measured luminance and illuminance of the MRI room and the monitor. University Hospital (n = 6) of the MRI (n = 10) in the luminance and illuminance Light Probe Xi Unfors (Unfors Instruments AB, Billdal, Sweden) was measured by using the. Black luminance level and white level of illuminance is repeated three times in the middle of the side of the monitor to obtain the mean and standard deviation using a t-test statistical processing was of significance test. Monitor luminance and black level in the average $1.78cd/m^2$, the standard deviation was $0.85cd/m^2$, white level average of $43.58cd/m^2$, the standard deviation of $13.19cd/m^2$. Illuminance of MRI room was the lowest value measured in accordance with the 30.5 lux, the maximum value is 601.3 lux, mean was measured by a variety of 177.86 lux. Luminance and illuminance of the MRI room and monitor is found to have statistically significant difference (p < .05). In conclusion, refer to the recommended standard of MRI and room monitor luminance and illuminance and to create an optimal environment.
