Low-field magnetic resonance imaging: increased safety for pacemaker patients?
AIMS The number of low-field (<0.5 T) magnetic resonance (MR) scanners installed worldwide is increasing due to a favourable cost and safety profile and improved patient comfort using an open-scanner design. Therefore, the aim of our study was to evaluate a strategy for the safe performance of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) at a field strength of 0.2 T, in pacemaker (PM) patients without limi...
متن کاملPacemaker complication during magnetic resonance imaging.
high. We intend to continue follow-up for the next two to five years, while looking for evidence of any long-term sequelae. The utility of endomyocardial biopsy after smallpox vaccination is uncertain. Given the inherent risks and low diagnostic yield of endomyocardial biopsy (1,4), as well as the high likelihood of full objective recovery after smallpox vaccine-associated myopericarditis (3), ...
متن کاملMagnetic resonance imaging of feline eye
The purpose of this study was to investigate magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of the normal feline eyeand optic nerves using T1-weighted and T2-weighted images. A total of 6 healthy female domestic short haircats age 2-2.5 years and weighing 3.2 ± 0.4 kg were selected. Magnetic resonance imaging data werecollected using GEMSOW (Philips) at a magnetic field strength of 1.5 T. Dorsal, sagittal, a...
متن کاملMagnetic resonance imaging in patients with a pacemaker system designed for the magnetic resonance environment.
BACKGROUND Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of pacemaker patients is contraindicated due to documented potential risks to the patient from hazardous interactions between the MRI and pacemaker system. OBJECTIVE The purpose of this prospective, randomized, controlled, worldwide clinical trial was to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of a pacemaker system designed for safe use in MRI for any...
