MR Safe – an item that poses no known hazards in all MRI environments. Using the terminology, “MR Safe” items are non-conducting, non-metallic, and non-magnetic items such as a plastic Petri dish. An item may be determined to be MR Safe by providing a scientifically based rationale rather than test data.
MR Conditional – an item that has been demonstrated to pose no known hazards in a specified MR environment with specified conditions of use. “Field” conditions that define the MR environment include static magnetic field strength, spatial gradient magnetic field, dB/dt (time rate of change of the magnetic field), radio frequency (RF) fields, and specific absorption rate (SAR). Additional conditions, including specific configurations of the item (e.g., the routing of leads used for a neurostimulation system), may be required.
MR Unsafe – An item that is known to pose hazards in all MRI environments. MR Unsafe items include magnetic items such as a pair of ferromagnetic scissors.
The 20-inch Wide Non-Ferrous Wheelchair is a pivotal mobility solution engineered to meet the unique demands of environments equipped with sensitive MRI products and MRI equipment. Unlike traditional wheelchairs, it is meticulously constructed without ferrous components, ensuring seamless compatibility and safe operation in diagnostic and imaging facilities. Built with high-quality materials such as titanium, aluminum, and plastic, this lightweight yet sturdy wheelchair provides exceptional durability while maintaining user comfort. It features an ergonomic design for superior maneuverability and supports a maximum weight capacity of 300 pounds, making it ideal for hospitals and imaging centers requiring non-ferrous furniture.
This wheelchair offers numerous practical features, including flip-up padded arms for easy patient accessibility and swing-away, detachable footrests to facilitate smooth transfers. For added safety and convenience, it is equipped with push-to-lock wheel locks. Optional accessories, such as an IV pole, E cylinder tank holder, and IV/O2 combo holder, further enhance its functionality. Clearly labeled "MR" on the rear for quick identification, the wheelchair meets MR Conditional standards up to 7 Tesla, guaranteeing safety in MRI-specific settings. The product comes with a 3-year warranty on the frame and a 6-month warranty on soft and moving parts, delivering dependable support for medical facilities prioritizing top-tier non-ferrous performance.
