According to the clinical experience and the active role of electroacupuncture instruments in clinical acupuncture and moxibustion, the potential security hazards of the available electroacupuncture instruments are pointed out. These hazards not only can cause injury to a varying degrees for the patient, but also lead to a poor therapeutic effect. The reasons of the security problems are mainly inaccurate regulation parameters, unreasonable displaying parameters, unscientific output of constant voltage, and unqualified protection measures for the electroacupuncture instrument. The countermeasures improving security and the measures increasing the intelligent level of the electroacupuncture instrument are put forward.

Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is increasingly becoming a standard of care and hence, an unmatched and irreplaceable diagnostic method. However, patients with implantable cardiac devices have not been guaranteed safety when exposed to the MRI environment. For this reason, Medtronic has taken the initiative and developed SureScan™ devices, which are MRI compatible devices for patients that would enable them to undergo MRI scans safely. The current technological developments in magnetic resonance (MR) and their clinical applications are discussed.
