VET MRI SAFETY: MPS-HEAD COVER® FOR HEARING PROTECTION

At the Anicura Specialist Referral Center Haaglanden in Rijswijk numerous MRI scans are conducted daily for dogs and cats. This high field MRI scanner produces loud noises, making hearing protection essential for these pets. In the past, a bandage has been used to limit high pitches from entering the ears, but it proved not always to be the most practical solution. The search for an easier and environmentally friendly alternative led to the MPS-Head Cover®.

To overview

What is the MPS-Head Cover®?

The MPS-Head Cover® has been developed for dogs that need protection for head and/or ear issues, such as an aural hematoma. The MPS-Head Cover® fits snugly around the head thanks to the elastic cord and adjustable closure straps. This makes the product very suitable for covering the ears. Using safe and breathable materials such as Invista Lycra® and Cotton, this product allows wounds and infections to be protected while having enough air circulation needed for recovery.

Veterinary MRI-scan protection

At the Anicura Specialist Referral Center, they have conducted thorough testing together with professional veterinarians to ensure that the MPS-Head Cover® does not interfere with MRI scans. Their findings confirm that this innovative product is MRI safe, making it a superior alternative to traditional methods like wrapping the head and ears with bandages.

The MPS-Head Cover® offers numerous benefits during veterinary MRI scans. It can be quickly and easily applied and removed, significantly reducing stress, friction, and time for both pets and veterinary staff. This streamlined process enhances the efficiency of MRI scans, ensuring a smoother experience for everyone involved. Suitable for both dogs and cats, the MPS-Head Cover® is available in five different sizes with a flexible fit to accommodate various breeds and sizes.

It’s also an environmentally friendly alternative to disposable materials since the MPS-Head Cover® and its accompanying pads can be washed and reused.
