BONEBRIDGE is different from other bone conduction devices. Prof. Georg Sprinzl, Christine Mühlöcker, and Marcus Schmidt discuss how design differences allow BONEBRIDGE to provide outstanding safety and reliability to users, along with what makes it an ideal choice for pediatric patients. The BCI 602 implant has a robust transducer, a low profile, and is transcutaneous for intact skin. It has two-point fixation and is embedded in the bone for stability, and is MR-conditional at 1.5 Tesla.*
* The BONEBRIDGE bone
conduction implant is MR conditional. Recipients with BONEBRIDGE
may be safely MRI scanned at 1.5 Tesla following the conditions detailed in the instructions
for use.
