Techniques and Technology. The use of magnetic resonance (MR) imaging as a diagnostic technique is rapidly expanding. In parallel, the number of patients with cardiac devices is constantly growing and many of them may be referred for MR examinations. However, implantable cardiac devices are subject to multiple effects from MR, and numerous safety issues need to be considered prior to scanning. In this review, we will summarize our experience with MR imaging of patients with implantable cardiac devices, and outline our safety protocol.

UI	MeSH Term	Description	Entries
D008279	Magnetic Resonance Imaging	Non-invasive method of demonstrating internal anatomy based on the principle that atomic nuclei in a strong magnetic field absorb pulses of radiofrequency energy and emit them as radiowaves which can be reconstructed into computerized images. The concept includes proton spin tomographic techniques.
