MRI SafeEach 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 LossMRI signal testing performed in four (4) different blanket configurations without signal loss. |
Clinically Tested to Maintain Body TemperatureThe 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 BlanketPhantom and coil only, the Blanket is not within the MRI. |
Sequence 2 – Blanket OverThe Blanket is over the top of the phantom and coil. |
Sequence 3 – Blanket OutsideThe Blanket wrapped completely around the phantom and the coil. |
Sequence 4 – Blanket insideBlanket wrapped around the phantom inside of the coil. |

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:
- MRI scan time
- Patient temperature upon entering the MRI
- Patient temperature upon exiting the MRI
MRI-Centers | Scan Time | Temp In | Temp Out |
CENTER A | 80.6 min | 38.23 °C | 38.12 °C |
CENTER B | 78.1 min | 37.68 °C | 37.61 °C |
