Ndevice denotes the number of MRI scans that were performed on each model of the types of hearing devices reported in the survey. NT denotes the number of MRI scans that were performed on each model of the types of hearing devices. Answer options consisted of magnetic field strengths 0.2, 1.5, and 3.0 T, and “other” and “unknown”; “other” was an answer option for cases where the field strengths were known to survey respondents but were not one of the numerical field strength options; “unknown” denotes field strengths that were not known to survey respondents
