Post-MRI Examination Review for Lead-Only System
Verify that the patient has not experienced any adverse effects as a result of the MRI. The potential adverse effects are
listed in the "Safety Information" section of this manual under "Potential Interactions with MRI Environment." Contact the
patient's physician and Boston Scientific if the patient has experienced any adverse effects.
Post-MRI Examination Review for Full System
1. Verify that the patient has not experienced any adverse effects as a result of the MRI. The potential adverse effects
are listed in the "Safety Information" section of this manual under "Potential Interactions with MRI Environment."
Contact the patient's physician and Boston Scientific if the patient has experienced any adverse effects.
2. After the MRI scan has been completed and the patient has exited the scanner room, the Remote Control must be
used to disable MRI Mode on the Stimulator. See the "MRI Mode for Full Systems" section of this manual for more
information.
Note: The Stimulator will retain the stimulation and program setting that was set prior to enabling MRI Mode.
If the stimulation was ON before MRI Mode was enabled, then disabling MRI Mode turns the stimulation
back ON. If stimulation was OFF before MRI Mode was enabled, then disabling MRI Mode keeps the
stimulation OFF.
3. Instruct the patient to contact the physician managing their DBS System or Boston Scientific if the Stimulation does
not turn ON or displays any error messages.
