Frequently Asked Questions

1. Are MRI Positioning Sandbags approved for use in MRI environments?

Yes. These Positioning Sandbags are made entirely from non-magnetic, non-conductive materials and are MR Conditional for use inside the MRI suite, including Zones III and IV. They can remain in place during scans at 1.5T and 3T without affecting image quality or interacting with the magnetic field.

2. What are MRI Positioning Sandbags used for?

MRI Sandbags provide weight and stability to help keep patients, coils, or accessories in position during imaging. They’re often used to reduce motion, maintain limb alignment, or support devices that need to stay still throughout the scan. Their even weight distribution improves both patient comfort and image consistency.

3. What sizes and weight options are available?

Sandbags are available in weights ranging from 3 to 15 pounds, or as a 6-piece set that includes all standard sizes. Having multiple weights on hand gives technologists the flexibility to match the right level of support for each procedure or patient type.

4. Can these sandbags be used for other imaging procedures besides MRI?

Yes. These sandbags are also widely used in CT, Ultrasound, and Nuclear Medicine. Because they’re non-metallic and easy to position, they transition smoothly between imaging modalities while maintaining the same reliability and safety standards.

5. How do you clean and maintain MRI Positioning Sandbags?

Wipe the exterior surface with hospital-grade disinfectants, such as alcohol-based or quaternary ammonium cleaners. Avoid bleach or harsh abrasives that could damage the vinyl covering. Clean after each use and store in a dry, temperature-controlled area to extend the product’s life.
