  7. Select [OK]. The MRI SureScan window appears.
  8. Program MRI SureScan to On.
  9. Select an appropriate MRI SureScan pacing mode and MRI SureScan pacing rate (see Figure 3).
    • For patients who require pacing support, program the device to an asynchronous pacing mode (DOO, AOO, VOO)
    • Note: An MRI SureScan pacing rate must be selected for these pacing modes to avoid competitive pacing during the operation of MRI SureScan.

    • For patients who do not require pacing support, program the device to the non-pacing mode (ODO)
    • Note: An MRI SureScan pacing rate is not necessary for patients whose device is programmed to ODO.

  10. Select [PROGRAM].
  11. Note: After the device has been programmed for an MRI scan, available options are
    [Print], [End Session], and [Emergency].
    MRI SureScan can also be programmed to Off.

    Note: The status of MRI SureScan and the programmed parameters may be confirmed by printing the MRI SureScan parameter screen.


The device is now ready for the MRI scan.
