摘要：

The presence of a pacemaker has been considered a contraindication for magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) examination. The authors describe a patient with a pacemaker who underwent MRI of the head without sequelae. Spine-echo MRI was preformed with 1.5 Tesla imager using head coil only. Prior to imaging, the pacemaker was programmed to the OOO mode. In carefully selected pacing-independent patients, with a pacemaker in a bipolar configuration, MRI of the head appears to be safe provided the pacemaker is programmed to 000 and enough scar tissue has developed to prevent pacemaker or lead movement.
