INTRODUCTION: Magnetic resonance examination is a non-invasive procedure not using harmful ionizing radiation defining it as one of the most often used and recommended examination in diagnosing different organic systems. Patients suffering from narrow and closed spaces (claustrophobia), undergoing magnetic resonance examination, could face obstacles or even make it impossible. It is the same for those patients who are not aware of being claustrophobic, whose condition could make the examination less comfortable due to insufficient preparation or information for the examination itself. OBJECTIVE AND HYPOTHESIS: The objective of this research is to establish patients and anestheziologists experiences regarding preparations for magnetic resonance examination. Based on the obtained results, pedagogic guidelines in preparing claustrophobic patients for magnetic resonance examination, should be outlined. Hypothesis states that claustrophobic patients are not informed and prepared enough for magnetic resonance examination. DISCUSSION: Considering the given results, it is confirmed that patients are not informed sufficiently about the examination. They should be definitely more comfortable if better informed, if better premises conditions provided, what is more, having better communication with healthcare staff before and after the treatment. Given all the circumstances and all the relevant information taken into consideration, it is strongly believed that all the proposals would make the diagnostics easier and more efficient. Lastly, patients would be much more at ease facing the fears while waiting the examination outcome which would also make their stay in hospital less traumatic. CONCLUSION: The hypothesis confirms that the patients suffering from claustrophobia are not sufficiently informed and prepared for magnetic resonance examination. Regarding this, a great number of propositions and suggestions are given in order to make improvements in the diagnostic treatment including better interior space conditions, fliers and any other procedure whicih could result positively for the patients, anestheziologists and radiologists, faster diagnosis and less number of postponed examinations. All in all, these would lead to reduced waiting time for the other patients and also less unexpected treatment interruptions.
