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.

Frequently Asked Questions

1. Is the MRI Waste Can with Foot Pedal approved for use in MRI environments?

Yes. This waste can is made entirely from non-ferromagnetic materials and labeled MR Conditional up to 3 Tesla, meaning it can be safely used in MRI Zones III and IV without causing magnetic interference or image distortion. It’s specifically designed for MRI suites, ensuring waste disposal remains hygienic and compliant without introducing metallic hazards near the magnet.

2. What makes this MRI Waste Can different from a standard medical trash bin?

Unlike typical metal or hybrid bins, this model is engineered for MRI environments using durable, non-conductive plastic that won’t react to magnetic fields. The hands-free foot pedal design supports OSHA-compliant hygiene practices, helping reduce contamination risk in clinical and imaging areas. Its tight-fitting lid and puncture-resistant body make it ideal for controlled, high-traffic healthcare settings.

3. How should the MRI Waste Can with Foot Pedal be cleaned and maintained?

The can’s smooth, chemical-resistant plastic surface is easy to wipe down with standard hospital disinfectants approved for MRI use. Routine cleaning with mild detergents or quaternary-based cleaners keeps it sanitary and odor-free. The durable hinge and pedal mechanism are built for long-term use, requiring no special maintenance beyond normal cleaning protocols.
