Meet your instructor

Reynaldo Torres Jr., R.T.(MR)(ARRT)

ARRT-registered MRI technologist · Open MRI applications trainer · Independent accreditation-readiness consultant

Reynaldo began his MRI career as a mobile MRI technologist. That field experience became the foundation for his work in leadership and applications training. He went on to specialize in Hitachi AIRIS II and AIRIS Elite 0.3T open MRI systems, providing instruction in protocol workflow, coil use, console operation, and day-to-day scanning practices.

His career has also included leadership roles as a manager, director of radiology, and chief technologist/supervisor. Through Open MRI Training, a service of I & A Technical Services, his approach is direct: meet the team at its current level, work at the console, and build repeatable practices staff can carry into daily operation.
