Key result
Magnetic resonance imaging can be safely performed in patients with both MRI-conditional and non-MRI-conditional cardiac implantable electronic devices if specific protocols are followed.
MRI is safe for patients with both MRI-conditional and non-MRI-conditional CIEDs when appropriate protocols for device programming, technical settings, and patient monitoring are strictly followed.

Supports protocol-driven MRI access for CIED patients; leaves open prospective validation before routine adoption.
Maass et al. (2018) conducted a review in Cardiac implantable electronic devices (CIEDs). Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) was evaluated. Magnetic resonance imaging can be safely performed in patients with both MRI-conditional and non-MRI-conditional cardiac implantable electronic devices if specific protocols are followed.
