WARNING
Movement and/or alignment of implants and prostheses in the
body, as well as attraction, alignment, and projectile-like
acceleration of magnetizable objects may result in very serious
hazards!
Injury to patient and operating personnel
◆ Do not use resuscitation devices - for example, defibrillators
or oxygen bottles - in the examination room.
◆ Do not use transport trolleys, movable beds, stretchers, etc.
that consist of magnetizable parts.
◆ Do not wear or carry any magnetizable objects on your person
- for example, watches, pens, scissors, etc..
◆ Use only proven MR Safe or MR Conditional accessories, parts
subject to wear and tear, and disposable articles with the MR
system.
◆ Use only MR Safe or MR Conditional tools and devices.
◆ Service work on the MR system may only be performed by
Siemens Service.
◆ Ensure that only authorized personnel enter the controlled
access area (0.5 mT
exclusion zone), for example, electricians
or cleaning personnel trained in MR safety.
◆ Keep the door to the examination room closed.
WARNING
Magnetizable objects introduced into the magnetic field become
projectiles!
Injury to patient and operating personnel
◆ Inform the operating personnel about the effect of forces on
ferromagnetic parts or implants, especially on systems with a
higher field strength (for example, 3T). Explain that the forces
increase with the field strength of the magnet!
