Powerful MRI gradient systems can surpass the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) 60601‐2‐33 limit for cardiac stimulation (CS), which was determined by simple electromagnetic simulations and electrode stimulation experiments. Only a few canine studies measured magnetically induced CS thresholds in vivo and extrapolating them to human safety limits can be challenging.
