MRI and Cochlear Implants – What Parents Need to Know

Every cochlear implant contains a tiny magnet. This magnet helps keep the external sound processor in place on the child’s head. But during an MRI scan, this small part can turn into a big issue.

In traditional or basic cochlear implants, the strong magnetic field of an MRI can pull or twist the magnet. This may lead to:

Pain
Swelling
Damage to the implant
And in many cases, the need for additional surgery to remove and replace the magnet

Here’s the good news. The Ultra 3D Cochlear Implant by Advanced Bionics offers a breakthrough solution — a specially designed rotating magnet that adjusts itself naturally inside the MRI scanner.

This means:

No need to remove the magnet
No surgeries or bandages
No anesthesia
MRI safety up to 3 Tesla (the highest used in hospitals)
No pain or discomfort during the scan

At Dr Rao’s ENT Cochlear Implant Centre in Hyderabad, we are committed to using the latest and safest technology—because your child deserves nothing less than the best.

As children grow, they may require multiple MRIs for various reasons like neurological or developmental assessments. Choosing a cochlear implant that is MRI-compatible can save them from unnecessary procedures later on.

A simple choice today can make a big difference for your child’s health and comfort tomorrow.
