MR Safe What does this mean?

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.

Frequently Asked Questions

1. What makes the MRI Curve Edge Wedge Positioner different from a standard wedge pad?

The curved edge design allows smoother contouring against the patient’s body, improving both comfort and positioning precision during MRI exams. Compared to flat wedges, this shape provides better lateral or joint support — especially when stabilizing arms, knees, or ankles — which helps reduce movement and improves image consistency across scans.

2. Can this curved wedge positioner stay in the MRI scanner during imaging?

Yes. The MRI Curve Edge Wedge Positioner is made from non-magnetic, non-conductive materials, allowing it to remain safely inside the bore during imaging. It maintains stability without causing image distortion, making it suitable for use in all MRI zones where ferromagnetic materials are restricted.

3. How should this MRI wedge positioner be cleaned and maintained?

The antimicrobial nylon cover is easy to disinfect using standard hospital-approved cleaning agents, excluding bleach. The sealed seams prevent fluid penetration, and the smooth surface allows for fast wipe-downs between patients. Regular cleaning keeps the foam structure and cover intact, ensuring long-term reliability in high-volume imaging suites.

4. What are the ideal use cases for this 2-piece curved wedge set?

This compact two-piece set is often used to support smaller body areas, such as the wrists, elbows, or ankles, or to help elevate extremities for better scan positioning. The wedges can also be combined with other MRI Med pads to fine-tune angles or relieve pressure points — ideal for both diagnostic and interventional MRI procedures that require precision and patient comfort.

5. How durable is the MRI Curve Edge Wedge Positioner for daily clinical use?

Built for demanding imaging environments, the viscoelastic foam core maintains its shape after repeated compression, and the reinforced nylon seams withstand frequent cleaning and repositioning. Many facilities use these wedges for years without deformation or seam wear, making them a dependable long-term investment for MRI positioning and patient support.
