INDUCTIVE ELEMENT FOR PROVIDING MRI COMPATIBILITY IN AN IMPLANTABLE MEDICAL DEVICE LEAD

摘要

A system includes a medical device lead including a connector at a proximal end of the lead, a conductor electrically connected to the connector at a proximal end of the conductor, and at least one electrode coupled to a distal end of the conductor. The system further includes a device securable to the proximal end of the lead including an inductive element. The device includes a port configured to receive the connector and position the inductive element around at least a portion of the connector
