    Inappropriate Shock and Battery Switching to "End of Life" in A Patient with Biventricular ICD During Magnetic Resonance Imaging
    (2016) Atar, Ilyas; Bal, Ugur; Ertan, Cagatay; Ozin, Bulent; Muderrisoglu, Haldun; https://orcid.org/0000-0002-9446-2518; https://orcid.org/0000-0003-3821-412X; https://orcid.org/0000-0002-9635-6313; 26875136; AAK-4322-2021; AAD-9938-2021; AAG-8233-2020
    Presence of a cardiac pacemaker or implantable cardioverter defibrillator (ICD) is a relative contraindication to magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Biventricular ICDs are often used in the treatment of advanced heart failure; however, reports on experience with biventricular ICDs are lacking in the literature. In this case report, we describe a pacemaker-dependent patient with a biventricular ICD on whom an MRI of the lumbar spine was performed without having realized the presence of the ICD.
