The purpose of this study is to determine the safety and efficacy of MRI scanning in patients with fractured or abandoned endocardial leads. Specifically, the investigators aim to provide community-acquired data that can be used in Medicare and Medicaid coverage determinations and to investigate whether patients with fractured or abandoned leads can safely be scanned using an MRI and to evaluate the impact of MRI availability on patient care in this population. This study also aims to validate similar studies conducted by Mayo Clinic, the Hospital of the University of Pennsylvania and Johns Hopkins Medicine that employ MRI in the abandoned lead patient population.
