11. Use of MRI
MR Conditional
Non-clinical testing demonstrated that this clip is MR
Conditional. A patient with this clip can be scanned
safely in an MR system under the following
conditions:
・ Static magnetic field of 1.5 tesla or 3 tesla, only
・ M aximum spatial gradient magnetic field of
4,000 gauss/cm (40 T/m)
・ M aximum MR system reported, whole body
averaged specific absorption rate (SAR) of 2 W/
kg for 15 minutes of scanning (i.e., per pulse
sequence) in the Normal Operating Mode
Under the scan conditions defined, this clip is expected
to produce a maximum temperature rise of 2.2 °C
(3.96 ℉) after 15 minutes of continuous scanning (i.e.,
