Cumulative Transfer Function for Assessment of MRI-Induced RF Heating Risk in Pediatric Patients Implanted with Bifurcated Leads

This paper develops and validates a cumulative transfer function (cTF) framework to improve RF-heating risk assessment for bifurcated cardiac leads in MRI, showing significant error reduction compared to single-branch approximations.

RF Heating of Bipolar Epicardial Implants during MRI at 0.55 T and 1.5T: Effect of Device Length and Termination Conditions

This study evaluates RF heating of bipolar epicardial leads during MRI at 0.55 T and 1.5 T, showing field strength and termination conditions affect heating patterns and safety.

The impact of damaging epilepsy and cardiac genetic variant burden in sudden death in the young

This study identifies genetic variants in epilepsy, cardiomyopathy, and arrhythmia genes in a sudden death in the young cohort, finding enrichment of damaging variants and a correlation with younger age at death.
