Magnetic Resonance Imaging
As a patient implanted with the Vercise Genus DBS System, you can have an MRI exam when specific conditions are met.
Conditions for an MRI are specified in the physician manual ImageReady™ MRI Guidelines for Boston Scientific DBS Systems.
This manual is available at www.IFU-BSCI.com.
Your healthcare provider should read this information in its entirety and determine all conditions are met before conducting and
recommending an MRI exam.

Control, and accessories) are MR Unsafe. Do not take them into any MRI environment.
Other Implanted Stimulation Devices
Contact your healthcare provider if you must use other implantable stimulation devices at the same time as the DBS IPG. Using
other implantable stimulation devices at the same time as the DBS IPG may interfere with the function of the devices. Careful
programming of each system is needed. Examples of other implantable stimulation devices are:
• Pacemakers
• Cardioverter defibrillators
• Medication delivery pumps
