MRI device developer Biophan Technologies has filed 12 new patents.
The patents demonstrate how the addition of a tiny circuit can minimize heating that can occur when devices such as pacemaker and neurostimulator leads are exposed to MRI signals, according to the West Henrietta, NY-based vendor. They also cover various ways that these circuits can reduce heating on many types of devices that suffer from MRI safety limitations, Biophan said.
