Six different types of Intracranial Aneurysm Clips representative of those used in South Australian Neurosurgical practice were tested for their ferromagnetic quality measured by deflection at the portal of a 1.0 Tesla superconductive M.R.I. unit.
One clip (Sugita) exhibited no deflection and was regarded as non‐ferromagnetic.
Radiographic identification of the Sugita Intracranial Aneurysm clip appears possible.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
