MR Safe What does this mean?
MR Safe

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

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

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.

Frequently Asked Questions

1. Why do MRI facilities use a Spanish ANSI “PELIGRO – ESTE IMÁN ESTÁ SIEMPRE ENCENDIDO” sign?

MRI magnets never turn off, so every person approaching the room needs a clear warning before they get near the field. This Spanish-language ANSI sign makes the hazard unmistakable for Spanish-speaking staff and visitors. Facilities use it to prevent unsafe entry, reinforce screening procedures, and meet MRI safety expectations for Zones III and IV while supporting bilingual communication.

2. Is the Spanish “magnet always on” sign durable enough for MRI hallways and high-humidity areas?

Yes. It’s made from long-lasting vinyl with a moisture-resistant, non-glare surface, so it stays readable in bright lighting, dim corridors, and high-traffic MRI spaces. It holds up well to routine cleaning and disinfectants, which makes it a dependable option for MRI control rooms, magnet room doors, and any transitional zone that needs consistent safety messaging.

3. How securely does the adhesive backing mount, and where is this sign typically placed?

The acrylic adhesive forms a strong bond on smooth surfaces such as painted walls, metal doors, and glass panels. Installation is simple—peel, press, and it stays put. Most facilities mount this sign at the final checkpoint before entering Zone III or directly on the magnet room door so Spanish-speaking personnel and visitors clearly understand that the magnetic field is active at all times.
