How Safe Is MME?

An MRI scanner generates a magnetic field of up to 20,000 gauss, similar to an MME device. The safety of the induction of high strength magnetic fields was well established during toxicity studies performed for the FDA approval of the MRI.

However, the strong magnetic fields used in the MRI and the MME do preclude their use by individuals with implanted medical devices such as aneurysm clips in the brain, heart pacemakers, and cochlear (inner ear) implants. Also, people with pieces of metal close to an important organ (such as the eye) may not be eligible for MME treatment. Each individual’s circumstances will be carefully evaluated before the person is accepted as a research participant.
