The purpose of this study was to use ex vivo testing to determine the magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) safety aspects for seven different metallic neurosurgical implants in association with the 1.5-T MR environment. Ex vivo testing was performed using previously-described techniques for the evaluati

## Abstract ## Purpose To assess the magnetic field interactions on 11 heart valve prostheses and 12 annuloplasty rings subjected to a 4.7 T MR system. ## Materials and Methods Ex vivo testing was performed to evaluate translational and rotational forces using previously described techniques. #
## Abstract Ex vivo testing techniques were used to determine the ferromagnetic qualities of, presence of heating in, and artifacts produced by 13 different heart valve prostheses exposed to a 1.5βT (64βMHz) magnetic resonance (MR) system. None of the heart valve prostheses showed a measurable defl
