A system and method for operating a magnetic resonance imaging system including a magnetics system and a controller located in a same room as the magnetics system and communicatively coupled to at least one communication network. The method includes operating the magnetic resonance system to acquire at least one magnetic resonance image of a patient, and, in response to a triggering event, transmitting, via the at least one communication network, a message including metadata associated with acquisition of the at least one magnetic resonance image and/or results thereof to one or more recipients.本發明揭示一種用於操作一核磁共振成像系統之系統及方法，該核磁共振成像系統包含：一磁性系統；及一控制器，其定位於與該磁性系統相同之一室中且通信地耦合至至少一通信網路。該方法包含：操作該核磁共振系統以獲取一患者之至少一核磁共振影像；及回應於一觸發事件，經由該至少一通信網路將包含與該至少一核磁共振影像之獲取相關聯之後設資料及/或該獲取之結果之一訊息傳輸至一或多個接收端。
