Article Synopsis
- An implantable loop recorder (ILR) is a small, leadless device used for long-term heart monitoring, especially in patients with frequent unexplained fainting episodes.
- As more people receive ILRs due to an aging population, it's important for healthcare professionals to understand their unique imaging characteristics to distinguish them from other cardiac devices.
- This article reviews the functions, types, and indications for ILR implantation, while also providing insights into the imaging features, safety concerns during MRI, and methods to reduce artifacts in medical imaging.
