| The MED-EL COMBI 40+ is the first and only cochlear implant
with a fixed internal magnet to receive US FDA approval for
use with Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI). |
| The MED-EL Cochlear Implant System is MRI safe (causing
no additional risk to the patient) and compatible (causing
no significant impact on the device or image quality) at
0.2-Tesla with: |
| |
| |
No need for surgery to remove internal magnet |
| |
No incision or swelling to heal after MRI scan |
| |
No recovery time to affect implant use |
| |
|
| With over 500 0.2-Tesla MRI systems nationwide,
there are more 0.2T scanners located within the US than cochlear
implant programs. |
MRI at 0.2T provides high quality images for a wide variety of
diagnostic applications:
| |
Neuro Imaging (e.g., spine, brain) |
| |
Orthopedic Imaging (e.g., shoulder, elbow) |
| |
Dynamic Joint Imaging (e.g., ankle, knee, wrist) |
| |
Vascular Imaging (e.g., aorta, femoral artery) |
| |
Body Imaging (e.g., pelvis, breast) |
