abstract = {To examine radiofrequency-induced tissue heating around
intracranial aneurysm clips during a 7 Tesla (T) head MR
examination.Radiofrequency (RF), temperature simulations,
and RF measurements were employed to investigate the effects
of polarization and clip length on the electric field
(E-field) and temperature. Heating in body models was
studied using both a conservative approach and realistic
exposure scenarios.Worst-case orientation was found for
clips aligned parallel to the E-field polarization. Absolute
tissue temperature remained below International
Electrotechnical Commission regulatory limits for 44 of 50
clinical scenarios. No significant effect on heating was
determined for clip lengths below 18.8 mm, and worst-case
heating was found for clip length 51.5 mm. The
conservative approach led to a maximum permissible E-field
of 72 V/m corresponding to B1+ of 1.2 µT, and an
accepted power of 4.6 W for the considered RF head coil
instead of 38.5 W without clip.Safe scanning conditions with
respect to RF-induced heating can be applied depending on
the information about the clip gained during screening
interviews. However, force and torque measurements in the MR
system shall be conducted to give a final statement on the
MR safety of aneurysm clips at 7T. Magn Reson Med
