Most Edwards heart valves and annuloplasty rings are safe and compatible during magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) procedures. Information is not available on annuloplasty rings made of stainless steel before 1984. Please have your doctor or imaging center visit www.edwardsmri.com or contact our Technical Services Department for details on specific product model numbers.
