I almost lost my glasses to the MRI. I was assisting anesthesia for an ICU MRI and as I leaned in to adjust something for the patient my glasses started lifting up. That is when I remembered i have 4 small neodymium magnets in the frame for addon sunglasses.
I quickly pulled away, but had I leaned in I would have probably lost them.
No, you wouldn’t have lost them as you’d know exactly where they’d be.
Forever.
My glasses! I can’t see without my glasses!

MRI’s cost hundreds of thousands of dollars and these clowns are just hucking chairs into one.
I’ve seen another video like this on a machine being decommissioned. It’s likely that was the case with this machine as well.
Lol. As if they’d do this on a working machine.
There was a story not too long ago about the need to make sure all of one’s… intimate items are pure silicone before going into an MRI.
What about copper IUDs?
What, tampons?
Piercings, especially genital piercings that people sometimes forget, and butt plugs.
What would an MRI machine do to my pacemaker?
To be fair, this would be a pretty unique way to add to a coin collection for the MRI tech though.

Chu mean homie MRI machines are the perfect place to hide your stash of conveniently discoverable weapons in the long term
Getting an MRI is how I found out I’m claustrophobic. Fun.
I wonder what happens if you have high iron content in your blood
Nothing. But I won’t lie and say I wasn’t curious if the magents would cause the iron deposits in my organs from shredding me on a cellular level. Doc said not to worry so I didn’t.
Source: I have hemachromatosis. Had an MRI done with a ferritin count of 2400. For comparison: normal adult males usually have a ferritin count of 24-336.
Are you… The Real Iron Man?
Holy shit…that’s a high level
I’ve always been a little concerned about the bb I caught as a kid. It’s magnetic and buried deep in my hand.
Basically the amount of iron in your body even with a disorder that increases red cell production is neglible both because it is evenly distributed and because being bound into hemoglobin weakens its magnetic properties.
Cool thanks for the answer
