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. Are these loop-lock MRI stretcher straps actually safe to use in Zone IV during patient transfers?

Yes — these straps are built entirely from non-metallic components, so they can be brought straight into Zone IV without affecting the magnet or the scan. Imaging teams usually choose them because they don’t introduce hidden metal the way some “standard” hospital straps do. The plastic buckle and fluid-resistant webbing also make them predictable during transfers, so you’re not worrying about hardware shifting or causing artifacts. If your backboard or stretcher regularly moves patients all the way to the bore, these straps are the type that keep workflow simple and compliant.

2. How durable are these MRI stretcher straps for high-volume MRI suites, and how easy are they to clean?

The webbing is non-porous and holds up well to the constant wipe-downs that come with MRI turnover, especially when you’re running sedation, emergent neuro, or high-acuity cases. Facilities like them because they tolerate common hospital disinfectants without stretching, fraying, or absorbing fluids. The loop-lock design also means they’re quick to release and reset between patients, which helps keep staff moving during busy schedules. They’re reliable for long-term use in MRI environments where you don’t want gear that breaks down or traps moisture.

3. Will these 5' MRI backboard straps work with the boards and stretchers we already have?

The 5-foot length works well with most MRI backboards and transport stretchers because it gives enough adjustability for both smaller and larger patients without leaving excess webbing hanging off the side. The loop-lock attachment gives you flexibility across different board designs, so biomed teams don’t need to match a proprietary system. These straps are often used to standardize equipment across multiple rooms — a benefit if your MRI suite has a mix of older and newer stretchers. Color options (orange, black, yellow, blue) also help departments set up clear organization zones or quick visual coding.
