Joint British Society consensus recommendations for magnetic resonance imaging for patients with cardiac implantable electronic devices
Recommendations
As issued by the authors
Almost all patients with cardiac devices should now have the same access to Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) scanning in the NHS as the general population
MRI may be considered in patients with cardiac implantable electronic device (CIEDs) without MR safety labelling, or with MR Conditional CIEDs where certain conditions are not met, where the clinical justification is robust
Service delivery requires specialist equipment, robust protocols for patient safety and workflows, and multidisciplinary collaboration
