This abstract presents magnetically induced force measurements per ASTM F2052 of materials commonly used in implantable leads. Implantable leads which are constructed solely from tested materials which pass the magnetically induced force testing acceptance criteria (i.e. gravity force), may not require magnetically induced force testing per ASTM F2052 for MR conditionality with 3 T MR scanners.
