A New Fire Hazard for MR Imaging Systems: Blankets—Case Report

International audienceIn this report, a case of fire in a positron emission tomography(PET)/magnetic resonance (MR) imaging systemdue to blanket combustion is discussed. Manufacturingcompanies routinely use copper fibers for blanket fabrication,and these fibers may remain within the blanket hem.By folding a blanket with these copper fibers within anMR imaging system, one can create an electrical currentloop with a major risk of local excessive heating, burninjury, and fire. This hazard applies to all MR imagingsystems. Hybrid PET/MR imaging systems may be particularlyvulnerable to this situation, because blankets arecommonly used for fluorodeoxyglucose PET to maintain anormal body temperature and to avoid fluorodeoxyglucoseuptake in brown adipose tissue
