Figure 6From: Finite volume analysis of temperature effects induced by active MRI implants: 2. Defects on active MRI implants causing hot spots Maximum hot spot power P hs as a function of inductance volume V ind . The maximum hot spot power for a given inductance volume is calculated using equation 1 and 2b under worst case conditions (Q = 5, const = 4 mW/cm3). It is a linear relation in log-log presentation. Inductance volumes below 0.4 cm3 are definitely safe.Back to article page
