Biomedical device company Biotronik has implanted the first U.S. patient with the company's Eluna pacemaker system with ProMRI technology, which enables patients implanted with the device to undergo MRI scans.
The first Eluna ProMRI was implanted in a patient at Lenox Hill Hospital in New York. Nine other hospitals in the U.S. also are implanting the devices, which are available in single- and dual-chamber models.
