Computed tomographic localization of malposition of pacing electrodes: the value of cardiovascular computed tomography

Pacing Clin Electrophysiol. 1985 Jul;8(4):589-99. doi: 10.1111/j.1540-8159.1985.tb05864.x.

Abstract

Three patients with uncertain pacemaker electrode position on plain film radiography were studied with fast cine cardiovascular computed tomography (CT) imaging. The value of this new technique in determining the position of pacing electrodes is discussed.
