MRI headphones

What is the noise level during an MRI scan?

The noise generated by the device often causes discomfort and anxiety, which can adversely affect the examination (the patient must lie still for a certain period of time). The highest noise levels recorded during the operation of the MRI device are 123 dB and 138 dB for 1.5-T and 3-T devices, respectively. The noise spectrum shows the maximum MRI noise at about 1 kHz*, for this frequency EciPeci noise-cancelling headphones for MRI reduce the noise by an average of 34.6 dB.

What are noise-cancelling headphones for MRI used for?

EciPeci noise-cancelling headphones for MRI reduce the sounds reaching the examined children and adults, which are emitted during the operation of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI).

How do EciPeci resonance earphones differ from other hearing protection?

Our EciPeci resonance earphones do not have metal parts - they are completely safe during MRI examinations (even MRI of the head). The earphones do not have a headband, which is why they are comfortable in a lying position - they fit in the area of ​​the resonance basin. The adjustable EciPeci headband ensures evenly distributed pressure of the earphones around the entire head, making them very comfortable for people with hypersensitivity to hearing and touch (e.g. those with autism spectrum disorders or Down syndrome). Like our other EciPeci earphones, these resonance earphones have been tested in Polish laboratories, where the effectiveness of their soundproofing and the safe composition of the elements from which they are made have been confirmed.
