Switching MR gradients induce eddy-currents in metallic implants. Gradient-aggressive MR sequences were used on a commercial 3 T scanner to heat orthopaedic prostheses ex vivo. Heating experiments are presented, and the measured temperature evolution is compared with corresponding numerical results. Numerical simulations have been successfully validated for five MR sequences at different implant position and orientations in the gradient field.
