Freestyle and magnetic resonance

Good afternoon everyone,

4 days ago I was diagnosed with type 1 diabetes and you want to put the glucose sensor.The problem is that I am a radiodiagnosis technician, work in magnetic resonance, Tac ... and they told me that I did not know if they could put it on me.

We are removed from patients with this sensor for ignorance and I don't know if putting a magnetic field protector would be enough

Anyone who is tsid or who knows something on the subject?

Thanks in advance!

Don't take them off !!Leave it

I make me several and do not affect the sensor

The prospect of course is covered in health.According to the prospect you could not even go through the airport control.I do it regularly, for all kinds of devices, ancient and the modern ones, and without problems.And I have made two resonances and without problems.At least in my case.

There are old open issues on the subject

All the best

Guard this information as gold in cloth😅

And this for the Dexcom in airports!

And with the freestyle?In the hospital when I gave me the sensors they told me that they do not affect the sensor does not whistresonance also Peta, but I don't know

The problem is that I can not take it out and put when I leave the resonance because I work doing the tests and I have to place the patient, so I am inside the room every 45 minutes.Some patients have done it with the sensor on and have not had any error and others, they have decided to remove it.
Anyway, to see what they tell me in the doctor's consultation, because I have also read that many is not proven.

Thank you all!

Well, I have read that in X -rays the sensor has to be removed from the suitcase or bag because it can damage the sensor, although it says that it is not demonstrated that it can damage it

I have done everything, this month 2 mammograms and a tomography.And several echoes.
Through the airports and thermal arches I have passed without problems, or with changes in overpressure in cabin has varied.
I am not an expert in fields and waves but it is difficult for not having volatile memories a neutron can alter the behavior of the sensor.I have only seen it in aircraft controllers and carry preventive measures so that it does not happen.

Well, I have to travel this month by plane and I don't know whether to remove it from the backpack and explain the issue that is a turra to have to do it

@ROGERIX Nothing at all.I travel with the position and 2 spare and have never told me anything.
I even took China an official Chinese document indicating that I had insulin, needles, sensors, etc.And they didn't ask me anything at all.They are more than accustomed to medical devices of all kinds.

@Ruthbia already but I have read on the Abbott website that the sensor is damaged with the X -rays and gives me a little stick to take them out of the backpack and explain to the hounds that are sensors etc etc

@ROGERIX I have been sensors for 6 years and I travel a lot, I have never spoiled any for going through an electric arch, with resonances, neither mammograms or anything.They have never made me get anything out of my backpack, no needles, no insulin or anything.Neither in Canada, neither USA, nor in any country in Europe nor in China.It is more traveling with heparin and the needle is much longer than insulin.They only stopped me in the US for an apple, it is forbidden to pass fruits.

For a sensor to be damaged or an electronics (computers, tablet, mobile, ebook ...) they need very long exposure to the radiation and long -length waves.The length is the inverse of the frequency, the longer the less frequent length is and vice versa (the wifi for example).
By that rule of three, we could not cook with induction hobs because they generate magnetic fields and waves that excite the steel electrons of the kitchen utensils and when moving electrons generate immediate heat (that's why they are faster than gas).These waves are proposed horizontally and would reach your arm or buttock, where you have the sensor although they are short there is always some that could reach you.The same microwave.

Abbott has not conducted EMC studies or ionizing particles, basically because they are very expensive.If you are interested in the subject Seu (Single Event Upset), I spent months working on it and its impact on the electronics of all devices of an airplane.

Well then I do not take out the backpack sensors to pass X -ray controls

I have made four resonances with different sensors and none damage, or bad.
On one occasion the technician told me to take it off, and I told him to let the person in charge that or gave me another sensor or gave me 65 eurazos to buy it in the pharmacy .... at the minute he told me, he can leave it on..... Hahaha

Nothing, they put me in the tube last week, 45 min and told me not to take away my sensor.
He continued working without problems
