The purpose of this study was to develop a web-based searchable MRI safety information system for confirming medical implant compatibility and to evaluate the usefulness of the system. The system allows MRI compatibility confirmation to be performed over internet. This system facilitates obtaining MRI safety information for medical implants easily and rapidly, thereby improving the safety of MRI examination.
