Tummy-Tuck

Can an MRI be done when you have a heart filter embedded?

By Plastic Surgeon ⋅ November 8, 2009 ⋅ Post a comment

I had The Tummy Tuck Surgery back in Dec. and before they did this surgery they placed a heart filter in and now I’m wondering if I can have an MRI done or not?
Yes it is a Vena Cava Filter which is placed in there for blood clots and its only been in since December 2008 just before my surgery.
