Objective: Susceptibility artifacts from metal clips in magnetic resonance (MR) imaging present an obstacle to evaluating the status of clipped aneurysms, parent arteries, and adjacent brain parenchyma. We aimed to develop MR-compatible aneurysm clips.
Methods: Considering the mechanical and biologic properties, as well as MR compatibility of candidate materials, a prototype clip with a zirconia body and a polyurethane head spring (zirconia clip [ZC], straight, 9-mm long) was developed.
