Not determinedIndexed from FDA records

MR Conditional — conditions not yet documented here. We have a Conditional label for this device but the specific scan conditions (field strength, SAR / B1+rms, monitoring requirements) aren't in our records yet. Treat as Not determined and let your MRI team confirm before any scan.

Here's what to do next — you're going to be okay:

  1. Bring your device card (the wallet card from your surgery) to your appointment. Your MRI team can identify any device from it.
  2. Call the manufacturer's patient line — the number is on your card. They answer device questions every day.
  3. Tell your imaging center about your device when you book. They screen every patient before every scan — no one will scan you unless it's safe.

Don't schedule an MRI based on this page alone — your MRI team verifies every device.

What this means for you

MR Conditional — but the conditions are not yet on file. The label exists. The scan rules (field, SAR, monitoring) do not. Treat as Not determined and let your MRI team confirm before any scan.
