The co-ordination of the Association's activities is undertaken by an elected Management Committee which consists of  MR Radiographers working in Malta.

The aims of the Association are currently achieved by the holding of seminars and lectures at Mater Dei Hospital and the MRI in Practice Course.

 
Last years MRI in Practice course wass accredited for 5 ECTS following an Objective Structured Clinical Examination. This course gives students the opportunity to work towards the award of an MSc in magnetic resonance. Other courses are in the planning stage with the aim of offering a variety of study formats. The Group will be active in forging links with other organisations, both national and international to organise a number of joint meetings and study days.
