Rigorous Testing of the MRI-Safe ConRad® Thermal Blanket Assures Safety and Image Clarity

MRI Safe Each of the three components of the MRI Safe - ConRad Thermal Blankets, the fluid impermeable outer shell, the inner heat insulative layer and the heat trapping layer have undergone rigorous specifications testing. The MRI Safe - ConRad Thermal Blanket as a whole has undergone rigorous ASTM testing for thermal resistance (ASTM D 1518). It has been proven to have the thermal resistance equivalent to that of an extreme cold weather polar suit"	No MRI Signal Loss MRI signal testing performed in four (4) different blanket configurations without signal loss.	Clinically Tested to Maintain Body Temperature The MRI-Safe ConRad Thermal Blanket has been tested extensively under clinical conditions at a busy Veterinary MRI center and was shown to maintain normothermia.

ConRad Thermal Blanket MRI Signal Testing:

The MRI-Safe ConRad Blanket was subjected to MRI signal testing in a 1.5 Tesla MRI scanner by an MRI technologist with the following credentials: ARRT, RT, R, MR. There was no noted MRI signal loss with the ConRad Thermal Blanket in any position with relation to the phantom and the MRI coil.

Sequence 1 – No Blanket Phantom and coil only, the Blanket is not within the MRI.	Sequence 2 – Blanket Over The Blanket is over the top of the phantom and coil.	Sequence 3 – Blanket Outside The Blanket wrapped completely around the phantom and the coil.	Sequence 4 – Blanket inside Blanket wrapped around the phantom inside of the coil.

Each of the MRI images below were obtained using the MRI-Safe ConRad Thermal Blanket during the procedure with no signal loss.

Clinical testing on warming effectiveness:

Two veterinary MRI centers evaluated the MRI Safe ConRad® Thermal Blankets and each provided data on 10 cases which was averaged according to:

1. MRI scan time
2. Patient temperature upon entering the MRI
3. Patient temperature upon exiting the MRI
