Advances in spinal cord stimulator (SCS) technology and increasing prevalence of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) diagnostic testing require empirical evidence describing the presence of MRI-related SCS adverse events related to off-label use of imaging. MRI safety recommendations vary based on the type of stimulator used with scant availability regarding adverse events associated with off-label MRI use. The aim of this case series is to describe the type and frequency of adverse events associated with off-label MRI use in patients with implanted SCSs.
