MRI-safe noise reduction headphone for MRI patient stereo systems • Part No. NRH-101

These pneumatic headphones connect to MRI stereo sound systems and enable patients to relax and listen to music during their scan. Their main purpose is to help patients overcome claustrophobia and they also enable patients to relax inside the the MRI scanner so they are occupied with the music and generally comfortable. As a result, the patients will be less likely to move around during the scan, the images will turn out better and your patients will go away with a positive feeling about the scan they had at your facility.

These Headphones will Reduces the High Levels of Noise and Enable Patients to Hear Music During their MRI Scan

MRI Headphones enable MRI music to be heard by patients inside the MRI scanner

Directly compatible with most MRI sound systems - We also offer adapters, if needed

The hearing protective ear muff designed headphone completely surrounds the ear and tubing directs the sound into the ear canal

The earpiece outer shell, inside foam and acoustic foam eartips all combine to provide an estimated 49 dB of noise reduction

This headphone helps patients to hear the music during their MRI scans while reducing the gradient knocking sounds that are produced by the MRI scanner

This headphone is comfortable for adults and children to wear during their MRI scan

We offer disposable headphone covers and replacement acoustic foam eartips to keep the headphone clean and germ free

Sanitary disposable stretch covers available (Part No. SS-2 Below)

We also offer Whoosh! cleaner which can be used to keep the earpieces and headband clean, without any harsh chemicals

NRH-101 headphone modular plug mates with viny tubing having a 1/4-inch inside diameter

Acoustic tubing inside the headphone earpiece is positioned to direct the sound down into the patient's ear canal

The patient stereo system was first developed by Scan Sound in 1986 to help patients overcome claustrophobia and relax within the MRI magnet

The headphone is made totally from plastic materials, making it MRI safe, inert and invisible to the MRI scans

All our MRI headphones are compatible with most all MRI sound systems, and we do offer an adapter to connect with those that have a single connector port

These noise reduction headphones are non-ferrous and are specifically designed for use within an MRI scanner

The headphones help patients to relax and pass the time in the scanner; A relaxed patient is less likely to move during the scan

Our 521-200 replaceable eartips help to direct the sound into the ear canal and they also provide additional noise reduction

Adapters are available for Siemens MRI Scanners

- The NRH-ADP is designed for Siemens MRI units that have a headphone port on the side table

- The NRH-SYM adapter is designed for Siemens Symphony MRI units with a headphone port at the foot end of the table

- The NRH-ADP is designed for Siemens MRI units that have a headphone port on the side table - The NRH-SYM adapter is designed for Siemens Symphony MRI units with a headphone port at the foot end of the table MRI safe for all magnetic resonance imaging system field strengths

Achieves noise reduction passively with a hard outer shell plastic earpiece, foam inside earpiece and an eartip inside that directs the sound directly into the ear canal

Compatible with high-field MRI, open MRI and fMRI systems

This headphone is used frequently for most body, extremity and spine imaging MRI scans

These headphones are easily maintained and we offer most of the individual headphone parts online

A pair of conventional headphones will not function within the extremely high magnetic fields of an MRI scanner, so a special type of acoustic sound system and pneumatic headphones are needed. The technologist sits outside of the scan room and they usually control the scanner and select the music that goes to box inside the scan room. A connector on that box will send the audio through tubing up to the patient's headphones. The Scan Sound MRI headphones all have a twin modular plug that is located on the end of the headphone tubing. This modular plug connects to two vinyl tubes (1/4 inch ID), enabling the sound to travel up to the ears.



The headphones have a thick outer plastic shell and a layer of foam inside that helps to absorb most of the MRI scanner noise. A tube inside the earpiece directs the audio right into the ear canal. This foam surrounds the ears and combines with the outer shell of the MRI headphone provide a substantial amount of noise reduction. The headphones and tubing are all made from synthetic plastic materials, so the headphone is completely inert, and will not affect the MRI scan in any way. The Scan Sound headphones can all be used safely inside of the Magnetic Resonance Imaging scanners and are considered to be MRI safe. The headphones are comfortable for adults and children and allows the patients to enjoy the music while they relax inside the MRI scanner.
