The device or implant is completely non-magnetic, non-electri-
cally conductive, non-RF reactive and indicates no known haz-
ards in all MRI environments.
The device or implant may contain magnetic, electrically con-
ductive or RF-reactive components. These devices are safe while
being used in proximity to the MRI, provided the conditions for
safe operation are defined and observed. Similarly, MR-condi-
tional devices (for example, RF communications equipment)
may present hazards as well. Please observe the manufacturer's
operator manual to avoid potential hazards and injuries.
