[...]. Leadless Pacemaker (Micra). CTICases. Published April 28, 2014. https://str-case-explorer.pages.dev/c/85bvw
Imaging findings
The patient's chest radiograph showed a small, battery-like device located within the right ventricle, confirmed by the lateral projection. This appearance is characteristic of the Micra leadless pacemaker, which is placed percutaneously.
Key takeaways
Recognize the appearance of the leadless pacemaker; it is a small, focal device placed within the right ventricle. It is an intended post-procedural finding, not a pathology, and should be distinguished from traditional transvenous pacing leads.
