Patient Screening and Preparation
# Condition for Scanning
5. No component of the Spectra WaveWriter SCS System
(such as the implanted Leads, IPG, etc) comes within
10 cm of the head coil. Verify:
1. The distal tip of each implanted lead is
at or below the T5 thoracic spinal level.
Distal lead tips must be between the T5
and T12 levels.
2. The IPG is implanted in either the upper
buttock or lower flank.
6. No evidence can be found of fractured Leads or
compromised IPG-Lead system integrity.
7. IPG is fully charged prior to the MRI head scan.
8.
Therapy is "Off"

prior to the MRI head scan.
Suggested Methods to Determine
Eligibility
• Check patient records
• Examine the patient by palpation to determine
the location of the IPG
• Verify by X-Ray
• Check patient records
• Measure impedances using the patient Remote
Control or clinician programmer. From the
Clinician Menu, select Impedances to
display the Impedances screen, then select
Measure to check the impedences. If a red
"X" displays, do not proceed. For instructions
on accessing the Clinician Menu, refer to the
Clinician Remote Control DFU as listed in your
Reference Guide.
• Verify by X-Ray
Make sure three bars are displayed
the top right of the Home screen on the Remote
Control.
• Prior to entering the scanning room, verify
stimulation is off by using the Remote Control.
The therapy "Off" symbol displays as an
orange circle surrounded by grey sunbursts.
The Remote Control must not be brought into
the scanning room.
• Confirm with the patient that therapy is off.
