Magnetically programmable shunt valve: MRI at 3-Tesla.
A magnetically programmable cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) shunt valve (Codman Hakim Programmable Valve, Codman, a Johnson & Johnson Company, Raynham, MA) was assessed for magnetic field interactions, heating, artifacts and functional changes at 3-Tesla. The programmable valve showed minor magnetic field interactions and heating (+0.4 degrees C). Artifacts were relatively large in relation to the si...
متن کاملCochlear Implants, Osseointegrated Bone Conduction Hearing Devices, and Other Implantable Devices
The cochlear implant is an electronic prosthesis that stimulates cells of the auditory spiral ganglion to provide a sense of sound to persons with hearing impairment. Although many thousands of patients have now been implanted, these represent only a fraction of the hearing-impaired individuals worldwide who would potentially benefit from implantation but do not have access to one because of fa...
متن کاملElectrically programmable magnetoresistance in multifunctional organic-based spin valve devices.
Information and communication technology (ICT) is now calling for solutions enabling lower power consumption, further miniaturization, and multifunctionality requiring the development of new device concepts and new materials. [ 1 ] One of the most fertile approaches to meet such demands is spintronics, which is now facing the challenge of evolving from the fi rst generation of devices that led ...
متن کاملExperiments with a programmable master hearing aid.
A series of experiments is described tracing the development and application of adaptive paired-comparison testing to the prescriptive fitting of hearing aids. The equipment needed to implement the test procedures became progressively more complex with each new experiment, leading to the development of a digital master hearing aid.
متن کاملProgrammable CSF shunt valve: in vitro assessment of MR imaging safety at 3T.
A programmable CSF shunt valve was assessed for magnetic field interactions, heating (transmit-receive body radio-frequency coil; whole-body averaged specific absorption rate, 2.1 W/kg), functional alterations, and artifacts at 3T. The programmable valve showed minor magnetic field interactions and heating was not excessive (+0.8 degrees C). The function of the programmable valve was not altere...
