What is the MRI policy for a brain aneurysm clip?
This policy only applies to 1.5T and 3T MRI of patients with brain aneurysm clips If a patient with an aneurysm clip is being considered for 1.5T or 3T MRI, the first thing to be done is to check with a Radiologist that the referral is valid. Beyond this, the make and model of the aneurysm clip must be known and documented proof must be sought.
Can aneurysm clips be scanned?
MR Safe clips may be scanned. If the clip is MR Conditional, the patient may only be scanned if the conditional criteria can be satisfied. The documented proof of the make and model of the clip must be recorded on CRIS. Word of mouth responses are not to be trusted as aneurysm clip model numbers can easily be mixed up.
Are there any Mr clips with ferromagnetic cerebral aneurysm clips?
You need to see the actual implant card or operative note with specific information (e.g., manufacturer, type/model, lot/serial number) before making a decision about MR safety. Fortunately, ferromagnetic cerebral aneurysm clips have not been manufactured since the mid-1980s, and thus will rarely be encountered in patients today.
Are intracranial aneurysm clips made by ASTM?
