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. Why are titanium suture scissors a good choice for MRI suites and imaging-based operating rooms?

Titanium doesn’t react to the magnetic field, which makes these scissors a dependable option for teams working around active MRI systems or MRI-adjacent equipment. Staff like them because they stay stable near coils, cameras, and navigation tools, and they reduce the risk of interference that can happen with ferrous scissors. If your workflow involves prepping patients or handling sutures in MRI Zones III–IV, a fully non-magnetic instrument helps keep the environment predictable and safe.

2. How does the 140mm straight design help with accurate suture cutting in clinical settings?

The 5½-inch length gives you enough reach for comfortable hand positioning while still feeling controlled during fine cutting. The straight blade design lets you get clean, precise cuts on sutures without tugging or fraying — something surgeons and nurses appreciate when they’re working quickly or in tight spaces. It’s also a versatile size that fits well into kits used across ENT, general surgery, and microsurgical tasks.

3. How well do titanium suture scissors hold up to repeated sterilization in high-volume facilities?

Titanium handles constant sterilization extremely well. It resists corrosion, doesn’t pit or stain, and keeps its structural stability after hundreds of cycles. Biomedical teams often favor titanium tools because they stay consistent over time — the tension, blade alignment, and feel don’t degrade the way some stainless steel scissors can. That durability makes them a smart long-term option for ORs and imaging centers with tight instrument turnaround.
