Lode MRI Circular Pedal Movement Ergometer

The Lode MRI ergometers are designed to produce physical stress within an MRI device. The MRI ergometer can be used for cardiac examinations, cardiac research, spectroscopy and other examinations and research.

For cardiac MRI examinations, the MRI ergometer can be produced with a pedal (circular) or push/pull exercise movement.

For spectroscopy MR examinations there is an ergometer available with up/down movement for the upper leg and an ankle MRI ergometer for the calf muscles.

The MRI ergometers are compatible for the most types of MRI scanners of Siemens, Philips and GE. The choice of materials and the special design makes that the Lode MRI ergometer can be used for 1,5 and a 3 Tesla MRI without giving artifacts on the imaging.

Our MRI ergometer with its low start-up load enables exercise. When a test subject is able to do exercise, this is always recommended above pharmacologic stress. It allows objective measurement of improvement in either level of cardiac conditioning and/or level of cardiac work.

The MR ergometers workload is controlled with an electronic braking principle especially designed for use in a MR environment. The moment of inertia is 8,4 kgm2. The MR ergometer is standard supplied with a control unit and power unit. The standard control unit offers the possibility to read out various parameters like workload, rpm, torque, timer and distance. The power unit is completed with a safety cable for wall fixation.

It is safe and what is very important is perfectly reproducible.

Unique Ergometer for MRI

With this unique ergometer it is possible to perform an exercise test in an MRI. An ergometer on the tabletop of an MRI ensures minimal time stress induction and imaging without coursing artifacts on the imaging.

High Standards

Lode is a socially and environmentally responsible company. All Lode products are RoHS/WEE compliant and Lode is ISO 9001:2015, and ISO 13485:2016 certified. All medical products comply to MDD 93/42/EEC, incl. IEC 60601-1.

Compatible with various MRIs at 1.5 and 3 Tesla

Compatible with

Tesla Independent

The choice of materials and the special design makes that the Lode MRI ergometer is useable for various Tesla MRIs without giving artifacts on the imaging.

Exercise instead of medicine

When a test subject is able to do exercise, it is always recommended above pharmacologic stress. It allows objective measurement in either level of cardiac conditioning and/or level of cardiac work. It is safe and perfectly reproducible.
