Figure 1 Fluoroscopic positioning of leads and generators. A: Right atrial and right ventricular (RV) lead position. Note RV defibrillation lead is mid septal and not apical. B: Anterior-posterior view of left lung field with generator moved to an axillary position. A phantom generator (black arrow) was placed on the skin over the site of the previous generator position. C: Left anterior oblique 45-degree view of the generators and leads. HeartRhythm Case Reports 2019 5, 36-39DOI: (10.1016/j.hrcr.2018.10.006) Copyright © 2018 Heart Rhythm Society Terms and Conditions
