MR Conditions of Use
7. The patient has been informed of what to do or expect in preparation for their MRI scan:
a.
Prior to arrival at the MRI Center, the patient should ensure that the IPG is fully charged
(IPG charge shown as three (3) bars on the Remote Control.) for the MRI head scan.
The patient should bring the Charger (in case charging is necessary) to the MRI center.
The Charger must not be brought into the MRI scanner room.
b.
At the MRI Center, prior to entering the scanner room, the patient should turn the
stimulation "off" using the Remote Control. The Remote Control must not be brought into
the MRI scanner room.
c.
The patient should be aware of the potential perceptible effects of undergoing MRI with
an SCS System, which are as follows: tugging (moving) sensation in the IPG pocket,
warming or vibration of the device in the pocket, and sensation of stimulation. The patient
should be directed to immediately notify the MRI personnel if any of these effects become
uncomfortable or intolerable. Refer to the "Risks and Potential Interactions" section of this
manual for additional information.
