This paper discusses the following priorities: redefining and widening the scope of assessment, redefining assessment methods, redesigning and evaluating quality assurance systems, promoting consumer participation, professionalizing quality assurance, and creating a supportive culture. The article proposes empirical assessment of quality assurance methods as the highest priority. It concludes with the idea that seeking quality is the ethical dimension of professional life. Therefore, all reasonable efforts towards monitoring quality will be successful. Without this, the cleverest monitoring systems will fact.

The Need for IRB Leadership to Address the New Ethical Challenges of Research with Highly Portable Neuroimaging Technologies.
J Law Med Ethics
January 2025
UNIVERSITY OF MINNESOTA, MINNEAPOLIS, MN, USA.
The emergence of innovative neuroimaging technologies, particularly highly portable magnetic resonance imaging (pMRI), has the potential to spawn a transformative era in neuroscience research. Resourced academic institutional review boards (IRBs) with experience overseeing traditional MRI have a special role to play in ethical governance of pMRI research and should facilitate the collaborative development of nuanced and culturally sensitive guidelines and educational resources for pMRI protocols. This paper explores the ethical challenges of pMRI in neuroscience research and the dynamic leadership role that IRBs should play to promote ethical oversight of emerging pMRI research.

UNIVERSITY OF FLORIDA, GAINESVILLE, FL, USA.
This article explores two questions: (1) whether portable MRI research might escape regulatory oversight altogether under existing U.S. privacy and research ethical frameworks, leaving research participants without adequate protections, and (2) whether existing regulatory frameworks, when they do apply, can guard society's broader interest in ensuring that portable MRI research pursues socially beneficial, ethically sound aims that minimize the potential for externalities affecting nonparticipating individuals and groups, who might be stigmatized or otherwise harmed even if they decline participation in the research.
