      Study on vibration characteristics of deep brain stimulator induced by magnetic resonance gradient magnetic field

      • 摘要: 磁共振成像设备的梯度线圈会引起植入器械振动,该振动造成其植入器械相对周围组织发生周期性振动,有可能造成器械失效故障并引起患者的不适。因此,研究植入器械在不同扫描序列下以及植入器械相对于磁场方向的振动特性,对于深入理解植入器械的振动特性具有重要意义。该研究通过激光测振方法研究了典型的快速成像序列下全颅骨植入神经刺激器的振动谱,探究了不同磁场取向对振动的影响。实验结果显示快速回波序列引起的振动分量丰富多样,平面回波序列引起的振动相对简单。此外,最大导电面方向同相位编码方向平行时,振动最强。该研究揭示了颅骨固定有源植入器械的振动影响因素,对于提升器械安全性、保护患者安全开展磁共振检查具有指导意义。

         

        Abstract: The gradient coils of MRI equipment can induce vibrations in implantable medical devices, causing periodic motion with respect to the surrounding tissue, which not only resulting in instrument failure but also causing discomfort to the patient. Therefore, studying the vibration characteristics of implantable devices under different scanning sequences and the orientation of the device relative to the magnetic field is crucial for comprehending vibration performance. This study observed the vibration spectra of a full cranial bone-implanted neurostimulator by using laser vibrometry under typical rapid imaging sequences and explored the impact of different magnetic field orientations with vibration. The results demonstrated that the rapid echo sequences induced diverse and rich vibration components, whereas the planar echo sequences caused relatively simple vibration. Additionally, the strongest vibrations normally occurred in maximum conductive surface paralleling to the phase-coded direction. It revealed the factors influencing the vibrations of skull fixation active implantable devices, and provided guidance for enhancing device safety and protecting patient well-being during MR examinations.
