Brain Imaging with Babies: An Explainer Video for Mothers and Caregivers is a neuroimaging explainer video aimed at assisting researchers and clinicians in preparing mothers for infant scanning on the Hyperfine 64mT MRI system.
The purpose of this resource is to explain what MRI is and manage mothers and caregivers expectations around their involvement in the process, reassure mothers and caregivers of their child’s safety and well-being , and to encourage a sense of pride for participation by thanking mothers and caregivers for their meaningful contribution to research. This animated video was produced as public engagement project for the UNITY (Ultra Low Field Neuroimaging In The Young) network and is currently available in three South African languages (English, Afrikaans, isiXhosa).
