Summary of Test Method4.1 The implant to be tested is placed in a phantom materialthat simulates the electrical and thermal properties of thehuman body. The implant is placed at

25、a location with wellcharacterized exposure conditions. The local SAR is assessedto characterize the exposure conditions at that location. Thephantom material is a gelled saline consisting of a salinesolution and a gelling agent. Temperature probes are placed atlocations where the induced implant hea

26、ting is expected to bethe greatest (this may require pilot experiments to determinethe proper placement of the temperature probes). The phantomis placed in an MR system or an apparatus that reproduces theRF field of such an MR system. An RF field producing asufficient whole body averaged SAR of abou

27、t 2 W/kg averagedover the volume of the phantom is applied for approximately15 min, or other time sufficient to characterize the temperaturerise and the local SAR.4.2 The test procedure is divided into two steps. In Step 1,the temperature rise on or near the implant at several locationsis measured u

28、sing fiber-optic thermometry probes (or equiva-lent technology) during approximately 15 min of RF applica-tion. Temperature rise is also measured at a reference locationduring Step 1. In Step 2, the implant is removed and the sameRF application is repeated while the temperature measurementsare obtai

29、ned at the same probe locations as in Step 1. Allmeasurements shall be done with the implant holders in place.The local SAR is calculated from the temperature measure-ments for each probe location, including the reference location.The local SAR value at the temperature reference probe is usedto veri

30、fy 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 specific frequency of RF irradiation ofan implant. The heating mea

31、surements 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 The results may be used as an input to a computationalmodel for estimating temperature

32、 rise due to the presence ofthat implant in a patient. The combination of the test results andthe computational model results may then be used to helpassess the safety of a patient with the implant during an MRscan.6. Apparatus6.1 Test ApparatusThe test apparatus consists of a suit-able phantom and

33、an MR system or MR test system forproduction of the RF field. The phantom, implant, and MR testsystem are utilized to approximate the electrical and physicalenvironment that the patient and device experience during anMR procedure. The phantom, implant, and MR test system areutilized to establish the

34、 heating behavior of a device in a knownRF field in a standardized phantom.6.2 Temperature SensorA suitable temperature measuringdevice, usually a fiberoptic or fluoroptic thermometry probe, isused to measure temperature versus time during the RFexposure on or in the vicinity of the implant. The tem

35、peraturesensor will have a resolution of no worse than 0.1C, atemperature probe spatial resolution not to exceed 1 mm alongthe specific axis of measurement in any direction, and atemporal resolution of at least 4 s.F2182 11a2NOTE 3It may be necessary to perform multiple measurements nearthe position

36、 of interest to ensure that the temperature probe is in thelocation of greatest temperature rise.NOTE 4The temperature probe should be transparent to the appliedRF field and must not disturb the local E-field (electric fields) signifi-cantly. It is assumed that probes that are not electrically condu

37、ctive areacceptable.7. Test Specimens7.1 While this test method may be used on prototype orpredicate devices, for purposes of device qualification, theimplant evaluated according to this test method shall berepresentative of a finished device in the as-implanted or in situcondition; for example, bal

38、loon expandable stents should beballoon expanded to the proper diameter.7.2 Other than described as in 7.1, for purposes of devicequalification, implants shall not be altered in any manner priorto testing other than positioning/coiling or otherwise configur-ing the implant in order to orient it in t

39、he anticipated worst casescenario for that device/scanner frequency.8. Procedure8.1 Phantom MorphologyThe phantom container and allits parts should be made of materials that are electricalinsulators and non-magnetic and non-metallic. The phantomcontainer should be constructed so that the phantom gel

40、led-saline material is of the dimensions shown in Fig. 1. Thephantom material shown in Fig. 1 has a volume of approxi-mately 24.6 L. The phantom material including the optionalportion has a volume of approximately 28.2 L. To test largerdevices, it may be necessary to increase the depth of the gelmat

41、erial.8.2 Phantom MaterialPhantom 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.NOTE 5The conductivity at the test temperature was selected to matchthe average conductiv

42、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 made at lower frequencies. (See Stuchly et al.(1)5for data on tissue electrical properties and A

43、they et al. (2) forprocedures for measurement of electrical properties.)8.2.2 Dielectric ConstantDielectric constant, or relativeelectric permittivity (r) shall be 80 6 20 at the appropriate testfrequency (64 MHz or 128 MHz).8.2.3 Thermal ParametersThe phantom material shallhave thermal properties s

44、imilar to those of the body which hasdiffusivity of about 1.3 3 10-7m2/s and heat capacity 4150J/kgC. This is close to the heat capacity of water.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 a

45、chieved by inclusion of agelling agent.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/mand viscosity is suffi

46、cient to prevent convective heat transport.NOTE 6The amount of aqueous solution absorbed decreases withincreasing salt concentrations.NOTE 7Another formulation can be made with NaCl and hydroxy-ethyl cellulose (HEC) in water. See X1.4. Comparative testing betweenPAAand HEC gels has not been performe

47、d prior to publication of this testmethod.8.3.1 It is essential to strictly 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 of0.47 6 10 %

48、 S/m at temperatures between 20 and 25C. Theconductivity does not need to be measured at 64 MHz or 128MHz. The specific heat of the gel is 4150 J/(kg K) at 21C andthere is a linear rise of 2.35 J/(kg K) per degree kelvin in thespecific heat from 20 to 40C. The gelled saline should have ashelf life o

49、f two months. However, a new batch of gelled salineis needed when there is a change in any property, such asvolume, conductivity, color, or viscosity. The phantom shouldbe sealed in an airtight container whenever possible to preventevaporation and/or contamination. Evaporation will alter thegelled saline properties.NOTE 8The objective is to have a resulting gel with a conductivity of0.47 S/m at frequencies of 64 and 128 MHz, however, the ability to makea precise formulation of the material exceeds the ability to preciselymeasure its complex p
