Abstract
Example interventional medical devices useful in performing treatment under magnetic resonance imaging and related methods are described. A method of making a medical device useful in procedures performed under magnetic resonance imaging includes selecting a first material, selecting a second material that is different from the first material, incorporating the second material into a portion of the first material, and forming the first and second materials into a desired structure to form the interventional medical device. The second material can be melted and disposed in a void formed in the first material, and work hardened to increase magnetic susceptibility.
