# Condition for Scanning
7. No evidence can be found of fractured Leads or compromised
IPG-Lead system integrity.
Note: An Impedance check is automatically performed
for Stimulator-lead integrity when MRI Mode is
enabled on the the device. Refer to MRI Mode
Section for more information on MRI Mode.
8. The patient should be aware of the potential perceptible
effects of undergoing MRI with an SCS System, which are
as follows: vibration or tugging (moving) sensation in the IPG
pocket, warming of the implanted system, and sensation
of stimulation. Refer to the "Potential Interactions with MRI
Environment" in the "Safety Information" section of this
manual for additional information.
Direct the patient to immediately notify the MRI personnel if
any of these effects become uncomfortable or intolerable.

Patient Screening and Preparation
Suggested Methods to Determine
Eligibility
• Check patient records
• Stimulator-lead integrity or impedance check
is automatically performed when MRI Mode
is enabled. If impedances are not within the
acceptable range the Remote Control will display
an error message before asking the user if they
would like to continue with enabling MRI Mode.
• If this error is displayed, we recommend not
proceeding with the MRI scan. Patients should
contact their physician to arrange an evaluation of
the system.
• Verify by X-Ray
Note: If there are any unused ports on the IPG, a
red "X" will display for those unused ports.
Red "X" on unused ports do not constitute
fractured leads or compromised IPG-Lead
system integrity.
