MR Unsafe 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.

Slicker Spray is a high-performance solution meticulously engineered to support the care and maintenance of MRI equipment. Designed for precision cleaning, this water-based silicone formula enhances the slickness required for efficient patient transfers while reducing surface friction on critical components. By lowering effort during positioning and creating a protective layer, Slicker Spray minimizes wear and tear, ultimately promoting the longevity of MRI products and ensuring consistent operational efficiency across healthcare facilities and imaging centers.

Ideal for use on table pads, patient positioners, and all plastic and vinyl surfaces, Slicker Spray offers a safe, non-damaging solution that meets the rigorous cleaning demands of imaging environments. Its non-flammable formulation is gentle enough for skin contact and compatible with a variety of imaging modalities, making it a dependable choice for preserving sensitive equipment while enhancing overall functionality.

Frequently Asked Questions

1. How does Slicker Spray help with safer MRI patient transfers on table pads and positioning devices?

MRI departments use Slicker Spray because it cuts down the friction that makes lateral transfers difficult. A light coating on table pads or slide sheets helps staff move a patient with less force, which reduces shoulder strain for techs and keeps patients from feeling the “drag” that can cause discomfort. It’s especially useful when a patient has limited mobility or when you want a smoother, more controlled slide onto the MRI table without compromising equipment surfaces.

2. Is Slicker Spray safe to use around MRI equipment and other imaging modalities?

Yes. It’s a water-based, non-flammable silicone formula, so it won’t damage plastic, vinyl, or coated foam found in MRI table pads, coils, and positioning aids. Facilities use it in MRI, CT, and ultrasound rooms because it doesn’t contain solvents or oils that could degrade surfaces or leave a residue. In day-to-day workflow, techs appreciate that it improves glide without interfering with sensors, adhesives, or the equipment’s finish.

3. How often should an MRI facility apply Slicker Spray to keep table pads and transfer aids in good condition?

Usage depends on patient volume, but most imaging centers reapply it every few days on their high-traffic transfer surfaces. If you’re doing frequent bariatric or limited-mobility scans, applying it more regularly can help keep your pads, slide boards, and positioners moving smoothly and reduce long-term wear. The 8-oz bottle size works well for routine upkeep, and facilities often keep one bottle in the magnet room prep area and another in Zone II for quick access.
