Abstract:
In one example, a method includes delivering, via one or more stimulation generators of a medical device implanted in a patient, electrical stimulation to the patient. In this example, the method also includes disturbing, by one or more components of the medical device, an image of the patient generated by a magnetic resonance image (MRI) scanner.
