MRI Compatibility Testing for Accessories

Biodex Medical Systems’ MRI catalog items were tested at Stony Brook University Hospital for compatibility with their Phillips Achieva 3T MRI System. Terry Button, Ph.D., and Clyde Schlein, Director of Regulatory Affairs & Compliance at Biodex Medical Systems, were present.

Items were checked to see if they could be used near the bore of the MR Magnet. If there was no magnetic pull, they would then be determined to be acceptable for use with a 3T System.
