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.

The MRI Plastic Stanchion Kit is an essential tool for managing foot traffic and enhancing safety in environments that utilize MRI equipment. Precisely engineered from durable, non-metallic materials, this kit ensures effective organization while safeguarding the functionality of sensitive MRI products. Its design minimizes operational interference, making it ideally suited for the demanding conditions of medical imaging facilities. The robust and long-lasting construction caters specifically to the requirements of high-traffic areas, ensuring seamless performance over extended periods.

This stanchion kit includes two 41-inch high ball-top posts with a 2-inch diameter, each equipped with integrated chain attachment hooks for streamlined setup. Paired with a 10-foot section of plastic chain, it provides a complete solution for delineating and securing restricted zones. The lightweight but sturdy structure allows for effortless assembly, repositioning, and storage, while the bases can be filled with sand or water for enhanced stability. Ideal for creating safer, more organized spaces around MRI equipment, this kit is a practical addition to any medical imaging facility.

Frequently Asked Questions

1. How is this plastic stanchion kit used to control foot traffic around MRI equipment?

Facilities use this kit to mark restricted paths and create safer walkways around MRI zones without bringing metal near the magnet. The lightweight posts and plastic chain make it easy to guide patients, block off equipment areas, or reinforce access control leading toward Zone 3 or Zone 4. Because everything is non-metallic, it won’t interfere with the MRI environment.

2. Is the MRI Plastic Stanchion Kit durable enough for busy imaging centers?

Yes. The posts are made from rigid, non-metallic materials that handle constant movement and frequent cleaning. The bases can be filled with sand or water, which keeps them stable in high-traffic hallways. This makes the kit reliable for daily clinical use, especially in rooms where staff often rearrange flow paths around carts, stretchers, or incoming patients.

3. What’s included in the kit, and how easy is it to set up or reposition?

The kit includes two 41-inch posts, integrated hooks, and a 10-foot plastic chain, giving you everything you need to set up a barrier right out of the box. Assembly takes only a few minutes, and the lightweight design makes it simple to move as workflows change. Many MRI teams keep multiple sets on hand because they’re quick to deploy for temporary boundaries, patient prep areas, or equipment staging zones.
