Patent ID: 8805536

Claim:
An implantable lead comprising: a pipe, wherein the pipe comprises a first end portion, a second end portion opposite to the first end portion, and a middle portion connecting the first end portion and the second end portion; a flexible conductive layer on the middle portion of the pipe; at least one connector on the first end portion of the pipe; at least one contactor on the second end portion of the pipe, wherein the at least one contactor is a carbon nanotube film consisting of a plurality of carbon nanotubes and wrapped around an outer surface of the second end portion of the pipe; and at least one wire in the pipe and electrically connecting the at least one connector and the at least one contactor, wherein the flexible conductive layer is electrically insulated from the at least one connector, the at least one contactor and the at least one wire; and the flexible conductive layer is configured to reduce an induced electric current of the at least one wire in a radio frequency alternating magnetic field.
