How do CRT devices work? There are two types of CRT devices. One is a special kind of pacemaker. It’s called a cardiac resynchronization therapy pacemaker (CRT-P) or "biventricular pacemaker." The other is the same device, but it also includes a built-in implantable cardioverter defibrilla...
Cardiac imaging:Advanced imaging techniques, such as a coronary CT (computed tomography) scan, or cardiac MRI (magnetic resonance imaging), can provide detailed clues about how strong the heart pumps, how well the heart valve performs, whether there are blockages in the heart, and much more.16...
Cardiac Diagnostic Procedures Once you gain some experience as an EKG Technician, you may want to attend a Bachelor’s degree program. This should take about 2 more years, and provides even more education and work experience for EKG Technicians. ...

People with metallic implants or cardiac pacemakers should avoid getting MRIs as the metal will react to the magnetic waves that MRI machines produce. Thus, after a quick verbal confirmation regarding the absence of implants, a patient is ready to go for an MRI scan. Patient-friendly MRIs are...
Lactation: Because of the potential for serious adverse reactions from PROLEUKIN in a breastfed child, such as impaired immune function, advise women not to breastfeed during treatment. Overdosage Exceeding the recommended dose of PROLEUKIN has been associated with a more rapid onset of severe or ...
She remembers looking in awe at the 3D cardiac mapping images from the EnSite X EP System used during an ablation procedure to treat her AFib. "Just seeing it was phenomenal. I think that was the start of — 'Oh, this is a cool field.' " She didn't know it at the time, b...
