Abstract
A coiled, closed-loop RF current attenuator is configured to be placed about an implantable lead conductor. A coiled conductor extends in a coiled shape defining a longitudinal axis from a first coil end to a second coil end. The first coil end is electrically connected to the second coil end. An insulator is disposed about the coiled conductor. The closed loop attenuator can also include in series a short, a capacitor and/or a resistor. In some embodiments the closed loop attenuator can be resonant at an MRI RF-pulsed frequency. The closed loop attenuator can be integrated as a permanent part of an implantable lead conductor, or alternatively, be a stand-alone device that is placed about a premade implantable lead conductor.
