Abstract
A system may include an active implantable medical device implantable in a body of a patient and a patient programmer for the AIMD. The patient programmer may be configured to obtain magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) compatibility information relating to compatibility of the AIMD with an MRI modality.
Claims38
A system comprising:
- an active implantable medical device (AIMD) implantable in a body of a patient;
- and
- a patient programmer for the AIMD, wherein the patient programmer is configured to obtain magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) compatibility information relating to compatibility of the AIMD with an MRI modality.
A method comprising obtaining from at least one of a memory of a patient programmer or a memory of an active implantable medical device (AIMD), via a patient programmer for the AIMD, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) compatibility information relating to compatibility of an active implantable medical device (AIMD) with an MRI modality.
A computer readable medium comprising instructions that cause a processor to obtain from at least one of a memory of a patient programmer or a memory of an active implantable medical device (AIMD), via a patient programmer for the AIMD, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) compatibility information relating to compatibility of an active implantable medical device (AIMD) with an MRI modality
A system comprising:
- an active implantable medical device (AIMD) implantable in a body of a patient;
- and
- means for obtaining, via a patient programmer for the AIMD, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) compatibility information relating to compatibility of the AIMD with an MRI modality.
