Patent foramen ovale closure device and an insertable cardiac monitor

Discussion:

The Reveal LINQ insertable cardiac monitor(ICM) is MRI-safe

The Amplatzer patent foramen ovale (PFO) occluding device is made from a nitinol alloy (nickel-titanium) and is MRI conditional and can safely be scanned at 1.5 and 3.0 Tesla strengths.

Image quality is compromised if scanning the area of the devices or close to the area of devices.
