Healthy Beating Hearts: Cardiac MRI
http://healthybeatinghearts.blogspot.com/2010/12/cardiac-mri.html
Sunday, December 19, 2010. I had a cardiac MRI last Wednesday. Cardiac MRI in the news. Cardiac MRI explained by the Cleveland Clinic. Cardiac MRI explained by U.S. DHHS and Insititutes of Health. During the test they had a hard time getting a regular heart beat while attempting to take pictures, so I got to lay in the MRI tube for 2.5 hours. That wasn't the way I planned to spend the morning, but it gave me a chance to practice my breathing and centering techniques. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

Healthy Beating Hearts: Mechanical Heart Valves and MRIs
http://healthybeatinghearts.blogspot.com/2010/12/mechanical-heart-valves-and-mris.html
Monday, December 13, 2010. Mechanical Heart Valves and MRIs. So my cardiologist wants me to get an MRI prior to implanting a pacemaker since I won't be able to have one after the pacemaker.
