Wireless ECG in MRI – Redefining Safety and Image Quality
The Challenge of ECG Monitoring in MRI
Accurate ECG monitoring inside the MRI suite has always been one of medicine’s toughest challenges. The very magnetic fields that make MRI imaging possible also distort traditional ECG signals, while monitoring cables introduce safety risks, positioning limitations, and image artifacts. For decades, clinicians had to accept compromises—choosing between reliable physiological data and pristine diagnostic images.
A Breakthrough with the Tesla M3
The Tesla M3 monitor eliminates these compromises by introducing fully wireless, MRI-compatible ECG monitoring. Using advanced filtering algorithms and dual-band communication protocols, the system delivers accurate, artifact-free cardiac signals in both 1.5T and 3T environments.
Beyond ECG, the Tesla M3 continuously tracks vital signs such as oxygen saturation, respiratory rate, and blood pressure—all without a single cable entering the bore. This means patients can be positioned optimally for diagnostic clarity while anesthesia teams maintain comprehensive real-time monitoring.
Clinical Impact
For radiologists, the clinical benefits are immediate. Imaging sequences are no longer compromised by artifacts, and exams are less likely to be interrupted by monitoring issues. Anesthesia teams gain continuous visibility into physiological changes, allowing for safer management of high-risk patients—including pediatrics, cardiac cases, and elderly populations.
Departments using wireless monitoring report:
Up to 30% fewer scan interruptions
Significant improvements in image quality scores
Enhanced collaboration between radiology and anesthesia teams
The Bottom Line
Wireless ECG with the Tesla M3 isn’t just an engineering achievement—it’s a clinical breakthrough. By eliminating the trade-offs between monitoring accuracy and imaging excellence, it allows care teams to deliver safer, higher-quality outcomes for patients who need it most.
