ASTM F2119-07(2013)

1.1 This test method characterizes the distortion and signal loss artifacts produced in a magnetic resonance (MR) image by a passive implant (implant that functions without the supply of electrical or external power). Anything not established to be MR-Safe or MR-Conditional is excluded.

1.2 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded as standard. No other units of measurement are included in this standard.

5.1 This test method provides a quantified measure of the image artifact produced under a standard set of scanning conditions.

5.2 This test method applies only to passive implants that have been established to be MR-Safe or MR-Conditional.
