| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Due to sophisticated high field MR and diversity of MR imaging sequence, it is important to consider mutual effect between implantable medical device and magnetic field. The effects were displacement force, torque, heating, artifacts, vibration of device, the influence of exogenous potential and rectification according to ASTM and IEC/TS 10974. Heating effect by gradient magnetic field was considered smaller than the effect by RF field. However, there were not clear safety standards of effects on the nervous system but by heating. In this study, we performed basic analysis of the heating induced by gradient magnetic field in a 34-years-old male adult model (Duke) with a MR compatible cardiac pacemaker. The results showed that no substantial risk for heating with low frequency gradient magnetic field. However, It requires a careful analysis of heating, unintended cardiac stimulation and Lolentz force caused by the loop circuit formed with the pacemaker, the lead and the organ.
