Pipeline Embolization Device (Medtronic, Inc., www.medtronic.com)

Non-clinical testing has demonstrated that the PED is MR Conditional. It can be scanned safely under the following
conditions:
* Static magnetic field of 3 Tesla or less.
* Spatial gradient field of 720 Gauss/cm or less
* Maximum whole-body-averaged specific absorption rate (SAR) of 4.0 W/kg for 15 minutes of scanning.
In non-clinical testing, the PED produced a temperature rise of less than 0.6C at a maximum whole body averaged specific absorption rate (SAR) of 4.0 W/kg for 15 minutes of MR scanning in a 3 Tesla MR system.
