1、Designation: F2182 09Standard Test Method forMeasurement of Radio Frequency Induced Heating On orNear Passive Implants During Magnetic ResonanceImaging1This standard is issued under the fixed designation F2182; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption o

2、r, in the case of revision, the year of last revision. A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval. Asuperscript epsilon () indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1. Scope1.1 This test method covers measurement of radio fre-quency (RF) induced heating o

3、n or near a passive medicalimplant and its surroundings during magnetic resonance imag-ing (MRI).1.2 This test method is one of those required to determine ifthe presence of a passive implant may cause injury to thepatient with the implant during an MR procedure. Other safetyissues that should be ad

4、dressed include magnetically induceddisplacement force and torque.1.3 The amount of RF-induced temperature rise for a givenspecific absorption rate (SAR) will depend on the RF fre-quency, which is dependent on the static magnetic fieldstrength of the MR system. Because of possible additionalheating,

5、 particularly when implant dimensions approaches orexceeds onequarter of the wavelength of the RF field inside thephantom, conclusions from measurements made at one staticmagnetic field strength do not apply to other field strengths andfrequencies. While the focus in this test method is on 1.5 T or3

6、 Tesla cylindrical bore MR systems, the RF-induced tempera-ture rise for an implant in open MR systems can be evaluatedby suitable modification of the method described herein.1.4 This test method assumes that testing is done on devicesthat will be entirely inside the body. For other implantationcond

7、itions (for example, external fixation devices, percutane-ous needles, catheters or tethered devices such as ablationprobes), modifications of this test method are necessary.1.5 This test method applies to whole body magneticresonance equipment, as defined in section 2.2.103 of the IECStandard 60601

8、-2-33, Ed. 2.0, with a whole body RF transmitcoil as defined in section 2.2.100. The RF coil is assumed tohave quadrature excitation.1.6 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded asstandard. No other units of measurement are included in thisstandard.1.7 This standard does not purport to addre

9、ss all of thesafety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is theresponsibility of the user of this standard to establish appro-priate safety and health practices and determine the applica-bility of regulatory limitations prior to use.2.

SARis typically indicated in W/kg.4. Summary of Test Method4.1 The implant to be tested is

25、 placed in a phantom materialthat simulates the electrical and thermal properties of thehuman body. The implant is placed at a location with wellcharacterized exposure conditions. The local SAR is assessedto characterize the exposure conditions at that location. Thephantom material is a gelled salin

26、e consisting of a salinesolution and a gelling agent. Fiberoptic temperature probes areplaced at locations where the induced implant heating isexpected to be the greatest (this may require pilot experimentsto determine the proper placement of the temperature probes).The phantom is placed in an MR sy

27、stem or an apparatus thatreproduces the RF field of such an MR system. An RF fieldproducing a whole body averaged SAR of about 2 W/kgaveraged over the volume of the phantom is applied forapproximately 15 min, or other time sufficient to characterizethe temperature rise and the local SAR.4.2 The meas

28、urement is divided into two parts: In Step 1,the implant heating is measured and the RF energy is assessedby measuring the local SAR at a temperature reference probe.The temperature rise on or near the implant at several locationsis measured using fiber-optic thermometry probes duringapproximately 1

29、5 min of RF application. In Step 2, the implantis removed and the local SAR is assessed at the same positionswhere the implant heating was measured in Step 1 and at thelocation of the temperature reference probe. All measurementsshall be done with the implant holders in place. The local SARvalue at

30、the temperature reference probe is calculated and isused to verify that the same RF exposure conditions are appliedduring Steps 1 and 2.5. Significance and Use5.1 This test method describes a test procedure for evaluat-ing the RF-induced temperature rise associated with an MRprocedure involving a sp

31、ecific frequency of RF irradiation ofan implant. The heating measurements are made twice, oncewith the implant and then repeated at the same location withoutthe implant. These two measurements estimate the local SARand the local additional temperature rise with the implant.5.2 If there is a signific

32、ant temperature rise associated withthe implant, the results may be used as an input to acomputational model for estimating temperature rise in apatient. The combination of the test results and the computa-tional model results may then be provided to regulatory bodiesand physicians to assess the saf

33、ety of a patient with the implantduring an MR scan.6. Apparatus6.1 Test ApparatusThe test apparatus consists of a suit-able phantom and an MR test system for production of the RFfield. The phantom, implant, and MR test system are utilized toapproximate the electrical and physical environment that th

34、epatient and device experience during an MR procedure. Thephantom, implant, and MR test system are utilized to establishthe heating behavior of a device in a known RF field in astandardized phantom.6.2 Temperature SensorA suitable temperature measuringdevice, usually a fiberoptic thermometry probe,

35、is used tomeasure temperature versus time of RF exposure on or in thevicinity of the implant. The temperature sensor will have aresolution of no worse than 0.1C and a spatial resolution notto exceed 1 mm in any direction.NOTE 3Fluoroptic temperature probes have been found to be satis-factory for thi

36、s purpose.7. Test Specimens7.1 For purposes of device qualification, the implant evalu-ated according to this test method shall be representative of aF2182 092finished device in the as-implanted condition; for example,balloon expandable stents should be balloon expanded.7.2 For purposes of device qu

37、alification, implants shall notbe altered in any manner prior to testing other than positioning/coiling of the implant in order to orient it in the anticipatedworst case scenario for that device/scanner frequency.7.3 This test method may be used on prototype devicesduring product development.8. Proc

38、edure8.1 Phantom MorphologyThe phantom container and allits parts should be made of material that is an electricalinsulator and is non-magnetic and non-metallic. The phantomcontainer should be constructed so that the phantom gelled-saline material is of the dimensions shown in Fig. 1.8.2 Phantom Mat

39、erialPhantom materials simulating tis-sue for the RF heating test meet the following criteria.8.2.1 ConductivityConductivity of the gelled saline at testtemperature shall be 0.47 6 10 % S/m at 64 MHz and 128MHz.NOTE 4The conductivity at the test temperature was selected to matchthe average conductiv

40、ity of the human body at body temperature.Electrical conductivity in the MHz range is greater than conductivitymeasured in the kHz range. The conductivity at 64 MHz and 128 MHz isvalid using measurements at the lower frequencies specified in 8.3.1. (SeeStuchly et al. (1)5for data on tissue electrica

41、l properties and Athey et al.(2) for procedures for measurement of electrical properties.)8.2.2 Dielectric ConstantDielectric constant shall be 60to 100 at 64 MHz and 128 MHz.8.2.3 Thermal ParametersThe phantom material shallhave thermal properties similar to those of the body which hasdiffusivity o

42、f about 1.3 3 10-7m2/s and heat capacity close tothat of water, 4160 J/kgC.8.2.4 ViscosityThe viscosity shall be great enough so thatthe phantom material does not allow bulk transport or convec-tion currents. Generally, this is achieved by inclusion of agelling agent.NOTE 5The amount of aqueous solu

43、tion absorbed decreases withincreasing salt concentrations.8.3 Phantom FormulationAsuitable gelled saline that hasthe properties described in 8.2 can be made with 1.32 g/L NaCland 10 g/L polyacrylic acid (PAA) in water. For this formula-tion, room temperature conductivity is approximately 0.47 S/man

44、d viscosity is sufficient to prevent convective heat transport.NOTE 6Another formulation can be made with NaCl and hydroxy-ethyl cellulose (HEC) in water. See X1.4. Comparative testing betweenPAAand HEC gels has not been performed prior to publication of this testmethod.8.3.1 It is essential to stri

45、ctly follow the mixing protocol anduse the given ingredients in order to achieve reliable andrepeatable results. The following protocol needs to be followedprecisely. The resulting gel (PAA) should have conductivity of0.40 to 0.60 S/m at temperatures between 20 and 25Cmeasured at frequencies lower t

46、han 15 kHz. The specific heatof the gel is 4160 J/(kg k) at 21C and there is a linear rise of2.35 J/(kg K) per degree kelvin in the specific heat from 20 to40C. The gelled saline should have a shelf life of two months.However, a new batch of gelled saline is needed when there isa change in any prope

47、rty, such as volume, conductivity, color,or viscosity. The phantom should be sealed in an airtightcontainer whenever possible to prevent evaporation and/orcontamination. Evaporation will alter the gelled saline proper-ties.NOTE 7The objective is to have a resulting gel with a conductivity of0.47 S/m

48、 at frequencies of 64 and 128 MHz, however, the ability to makea precise formulation of the material exceeds the ability to preciselymeasure its complex permittivity at these frequencies using readilyavailable methods. As such, care must be taken in following theinstructions, and it is suggested to

49、measure the conductivity with a simpledevice at low frequencies (between approximately 1 and 15 kHz) in orderto check that the recipe was made without large errors or deviations.8.3.1.1 Ingredients of PAA gelled saline:Waterdeionized or distilled water, conductivity less than1 mS/m.NaClreagent grade, 99 % pure.Polyacrylic acidAldrich product number 436364, Poly-acrylic acid partial sodium salt, CAS no. 76774-25-9.6SeeNote 8.5The boldface numbers in parentheses refer to a list of references at the end ofthis standard.6The sole source of sup
