An implantable medical lead for coupling to an implantable pulse generator may be configured for improved MRI safety. The lead may include: a tubular body including a proximal end and a distal end; a first electrode operably coupled to the tubular body near the distal end; and a first electrical coil conductor extending distally through the body from the proximal end and electrically connected to the first electrode. The coil conductor may include at least one transition in which the coil conductor changes from being helically coiled in a first direction to being helically coiled in a second opposite direction. A method of forming such a lead may include: helically coiling at least a portion of a first electrical coil conductor by winding the coil conductor in a first direction, and winding the coil conductor in a second direction opposite the first direction so as to form a transition.
