The US FDA approved expanded MRI labeling for Abbott Laboratories' Eterna spinal cord stimulation (SCS) system, allowing higher-quality scan images for chronic pain patients. The Eterna system delivers low-intensity electrical impulses to disrupt pain and is the smallest implantable, rechargeable system for chronic pain treatment. The new labeling includes MR conditional leads, enabling safe MRI scans for chronic pain patients. The system offers faster scan times and higher-quality images, addressing barriers to efficient and effective scans for patients with implanted devices.
