Permanent pacemakers and implantable ICDs

  • Only if no alternative diagnostic test is available and the potential benefit to the patient clearly outweighs the potential risks[1]
  • If performed, the pacemaker/ICD should be interrogated before and after the procedure
  • Registry of non-MRI conditional pacemakers in NEJM article with nonthoracic MRI at field strength of 1.5 teslas suggested that lead or device failure does not occur[2]
    • 1000 cases of pacemakers and 500 cases of ICD in study
    • No deaths, lead failures, losses of capture, or ventricular arrhythmias occurred during MRI
    • Industry funded study, with strict criteria for inclusion
