Frequently Asked Questions

1. What is the MRI safety status of the 12° Wedge?

This 12-degree positioning wedge is made from non-metallic, non-conductive materials, designed for use in the MRI suite without affecting image quality. It can safely remain in MRI Zones III and IV, including during active scans. Always check your product labeling or facility documentation to confirm whether your specific wedge is MR Conditional and approved for your scanner’s field strength (commonly 1.5 T or 3 T).

2. How is the 12° Wedge used in MRI and other imaging procedures?

This wedge provides gentle elevation and support to improve patient alignment and reduce pressure during imaging. It’s used across MRI, CT, Ultrasound, and Nuclear Medicine to keep patients still and comfortable, improving both workflow efficiency and image accuracy.

3. What are the dimensions and key benefits of this wedge?

Each wedge measures 2.25″ H × 9.5″ W × 7.25″ L with a 12° incline. The angled design promotes natural body alignment, reducing motion and strain during longer scans. Its lightweight build makes positioning easy for technologists and staff.

4. How does the 12° Wedge compare to flat or curved positioning pads?

The 12° Wedge provides a gentle incline that supports natural body alignment, ideal for reducing strain and motion during scans. Flat pads offer even surface support for general positioning, while curved pads cradle limbs or joints for added comfort. Many imaging teams use a combination of wedges and pads to adapt positioning to each patient and scan type.
