Executive Summary
The growing trend of using magnetic resonance imaging for enhanced visualization is being augmented by MR-safe guidewires, but an MR-safe medical device must be non-ferromagnetic, must neither heat up nor be electrically conductive, and should not create imaging artifacts that obscure or distort the target image. A portfolio of MR-safe guidewires from Germany-based MaRVis Medical GMBH fulfills these requisites by successfully integrating good mechanical and visualization properties.
