Reducing RF-induced Heating near Implanted Leads through High-Dielectric Capacitive Bleeding of Current (CBLOC)

Patients with implanted medical devices such as deep brain stimulation or spinal cord stimulation are often unable to receive magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). This is because once the device is within the radiofrequency (RF) field of the MRI scanner, electrically conductive leads act as antenna, am...
