@the_sarahe: MAGEC RODS! Did you know they existed?? Please please spread awareness about these to your coworkers!! I am realizing that not everyone knew these existed. I have known techs to serk off orthopedic spine hardware because most of it is MRI conditional on normal operating mode but there are some outliers that require less then 2.0 W/kg WB SAR & MAGEC rods are one of them! These rods also require that we wheel the patient in flat on a stretcher into zone 4. Meaning we load the patient onto the stretcher in zone 3 and then wheel them into zone 4 (the MRI room) supine. They are not allowed to roll or twist. #mri #important #psa #radiology #spine

Can you talk about Vibrance for constipation? It’s a vibrating capsule you take to stimulate bowel movements. We had a patient in MRI last year that had 11 of those retained in their abdomen. The Dr never told her they were contraindication for MRI. It was crazy!!!!! Couldn’t figure out what it was! We thought maybe she had PICA and was swallowing batteries!

Persona IQ Smart knee replacement by Zimmer is another one. Embedded electronics. Need to research conditions to see if your facility can meet them

They also have these in other implants such as a tibial nail! As a prior xray OR tech before mri I have seen it and watched them use the magnet to extend the rod

Do they remove this when the patient is finished growing or should we be asking adults if they have these rods from when they were a child?

I've never heard of these, but I will definitely watch out for them in pediatric patients. It looks like the facility I work at does place these. Wild!
