MR Conditional 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. What is the MRI safety rating for this handheld UV black light, and can it be used inside a 3T MRI room?

This UV light is MR Conditional to 3 Tesla, so it can be used safely inside MRI Zones III and IV when the labeled conditions are followed. Its non-magnetic construction and stable UV output mean it won’t interfere with the scanner, making it useful for tasks like surface-level contamination checks, coil inspections, or equipment troubleshooting close to the bore. MRI teams often use this model when they need a UV source that won’t introduce ferromagnetic risk in a 3T environment.

2. What can a 395nm UV light be used for in MRI maintenance and quality checks?

The 395nm wavelength is ideal for spotting surface inconsistencies, residue, adhesive issues, or contamination that could affect equipment performance or patient comfort. Many facilities use it to examine pads, coils, table tops, and accessories without moving equipment out of the magnet room. Because the beam stays consistent in high-field environments, the light helps techs catch small issues early and keep their MRI suite compliant with internal cleaning and QC standards.

3. What type of batteries does this MRI UV light require, and do they need to be MRI-specific?

It runs on three non-magnetic C-size MR batteries (sold separately as Part #AE-123C). Standard commercial C batteries aren’t appropriate for MRI rooms because many contain ferromagnetic components. These MR-rated batteries are engineered for consistent power output in magnetic fields, so the UV light stays reliable whether you’re using it during routine QC checks or in the middle of a scanning day. The push-button tail cap makes battery changes quick and straightforward.
