mri oxygen bottle

[Godallmighty008]

50,000 dollars to get that working again

[WhatssSoFunny]

You break it? You pay $1.5 million

[mrsru3]

I will ASSUME that this is either an MRI about to be decommissioned and taken apart, because these things cost a BUTTLOAD, it's the single most expensive piece of equipment in an imaging department, if not the entire hospital.

[karlwashere123]

they could have been killed. they didn't know where the path was in that magnet. It could have been right back at them. all tho rare, but possible. you've gotta be familiar whit this thing when pulling such a stunt. could come right back at you.

[jaghatarkebab]

Why is the machine magnetic?

[karlwashere123]

@jaghatarkebab Really?



[jaghatarkebab]

@karlwashere123 I realize that it is a necessity, but what makes it magnetic?

[karlwashere123]

@jaghatarkebab The magnet makes it magnetic. its to line up the molecules of hydrogen and other molecules in you body in the direction of the magnet, when induce to change direction the change can be detected.

[cameronlmatthews]

@karlwashere123 Well there's not really any magnets in the machine, there are actually 3 pairs of superconductors bathed in liquid helium that create powerful magnetic fields in the three spatial dimensions; x,y and z when a current is run through them. This means there's a slightly different overall magnetic field direction at every point within the cavity, which hydrogen atoms in the patient's body respond to. This response can be measured, and a nice image obtained after processing the data.

[cosmiclarity]

i dont care whether its training or not

at first i was like wtf but then i LOL'd

[kitedudeification]

@UserNamei5 The magnets themselves 'only' cost around $300,000 dollars, it's the installation and upkeep that raises the cost.

[ffxme]

I would never do that to my NMR spectrometer!

[theJACKSON10]

this happened once with an orderly wheeling a patient in on a wheel chair.. How it happened god knows!!! but the wheel chair was violent pulled towards the unit and could not be removed.. the most horrific part is the cost of reseting the gasses in the unit

[newteradub]

hate mri scans scary as shit

[muffinman540]

fuckin magnets, how do they work

[Embrigh]

Is that guy seriously pushing that oxygen tank in their with a METAL POLE?

[ThinkLearnSolve]

@Embrigh lol

[laputahayom]

@Embrigh

aluminium perhaps?

[trumpettom001]

@Embrigh Might be aluminium - which of course is not magnetic.

[elmiraviking]

@trumpettom001 Doesn't matter if the tank is magnetic or not. It just needs to conduct electricity. The eddy currents from the field set up a sympathetic magnetic field in the bottle, they two fields interact, and the bottle goes shooting away.

[demollyon]

I'm a radiologist and this pisses me off..

[Takoeye2008]

An MRI Techs nightmare!!!

[TestECull]

This is what I want my doomsday weapons to sound like.

[wackyrice1]

GeekisTheNewCool: super response,dude-direct and creative.

[IRONMAIDENFAN2006]

yea lets damage a 200 grand machine with a 20lb oxy bottle

[NateTheGreatPilot]

I hope the bottle didn't get hurt.

[titus559]

The machine is not broken, probably a quenching (if it's super-conductive) and maintenance would be necessary, that is expensive.. but not so expensive.

[Landon3Watson]

i got my steel toe boots stuck to one of these today... dragged me across the floor after i got one boot close enough, these are the same magnets used with junk yard crains!

[KodexCanine]

@Landon3Watson oh woah, that's pretty crazy. Glad you didn't get hurt !

[aceon06]

ur a fucking dick head

[Ironside451]

million dollar machine lets put a oxygen bottle in it! ROFL

[tjtaber1988]

This is one of these times where all you can say is, "HOLY S***!".

[GWR4079]

loook at the man pushing the bottle in he was wearing glasses!

[mjouwbuis]

Nice demo. This machine is probably written of, so no concern about breaking it ;-)

Only thing of course, if it wasn't already broken or unreliable it could have been sold on the second hand market to africa or south america.

[spacekip38]

they probably won't have the electricity for it in afrika?

though i agree, they could've sold it to a third world country

[xTiamatex]

hardcore :D

[desertgeologist]

I guess the magnets work.

[hepburda86]

crazy

[boomer397]

lol oops sorry boss i broke your mri machene putting a oxygen bottle in it sorry the machenes probable over $10000

[Lusankya]

Close. It actually ranges from one to three million dollars.

[mitchtay99]

Coil gun

[tom133991]

Id of laughed if the they used a full oxygen tank and it exploded XD

[FreonRose]

Doctor: Somethings not right here.. it seems our patient has an Oxygen tank in his rib cage.

[sexiestbutler]

did they find out what was wrong with the oxygen bottle

[gaptoofgranny]

@sexiestbutler besides the fact it's made of a ferrous (AKA magnetic) METAL?

[Jon124]

@sexiestbutler fucking LOL

[mechfreak57]

Every few years someone gets killed this way.

[Disneydanny]

sadly a 6 year old boy was killed when an oxygen tank somehow found it's way into an MRI room. I'd post the link here but youtube doesn't allow outside links so if your interested in reading the article just google it

[kiddbandit]

Wow your right o.o Thats crazy shit

[Mednovotob]

The boy's name is Michael Colombini. Google his name and you'll find lots about the accident and the civil suit that's still grinding its way through the legal system today (8 years later).

[somacoyote]

I sure hope so, I wanna put metal stuff in the MRI. Human subjects are so boring.

[mburch1974]

I want to see an ICBM in close proximity to a MRI ! ahaha

[gndarklight]

AHAHA oh man! that made me laugh, good job

[nolobede]

Now lets see it with an acetylene tank.

[08hirc]

wow...thats just dumb!

[fraseryt]

Apparently the most common item to get stuck in a MRI is a Floor buffer.

It's almost as if the Cleaners couldn't read the sign on the door that said "Caution! Super Strong magnet! Keep steel out of here!"

But the machines are usually build pretty strong, because it they weren't and the containment got cracked, they would spray out liquid helium.

[mburch1974]

they f'd up a multi million dollar MRI on purpose??

[SpartanSam]

lol they do this to the MRI scanners when they're going to be decommisioned. so they take this chance to abuse the electro magnet seeing as it's going to be destroyed anyway.

[800piranhas]

they'd better give it to schools, here in Belgium we're like the only school with a skillslab, the french schools have to go on saturdays to hospitals if they want to see MR's, CT's, ...

[Jenfucius]

I wonder what would happen if mercury was placed in an MRI?

[cdlldc111]

mercury is diamegnetic..its essentually completely non magnetic at normal conditions

[Jenfucius]

Do you if the "Lens" effect and Eddie current will effect it????. I was just reading about it yesterday.

[cdlldc111]

um from as far as i know..so i mean im not a professional..im only 12 accually but im in love with phsyics and chemistry and electronics ect.....

[karlwashere123]

@cdlldc111 its good to hear the younger generations is interested in such things. whats cool is that if you sit in this thing for a wile the molecules all line up north in your body and heats your core temp. cooks you like a turkey in a microwave

[phoenix13nl]

WTF, :S, what if the MRI broke? lol.

[kathryn120]

Personally, I think all hospitals and institutions with MRIs, should put closed circuit video cameras in to make sure this kind of foolishness does not take place. This guy is a complete, utter moron.

[knoxy7777]

I think you'll find you are the 'utter moron'. Some of the best known scientific discoveries were made by people fucking about! Go back to your horse and cart!

[kathryn120]

Listen dolt, this is a machine that costs quite a bit to a hospital/health care institution. It is a tool that is utilitarian, not to be used in some little shit head's, little boy silly session. The scientific experiments have a time and place, and this is not the place. If that idiot screwed the machine up, then he should have to pay, not have the burden passed on to the patients.. YOU FOOL!

[knoxy7777]

What better utilitarian use than to give people pleasure on YouTube! Perhaps you should use words you fully understand, before brandishing them around like a wet sponge.

[10mintwo]

So you think this person just decided to fuck off during lunch with an oxygen bottle and an MRI machine and that this is, you know, like an everyday occurrence with these devices? You're the complete and utter moron. The machine is obviously an old, probably 1 tesla, model and is likely being shut down permanently, an obvious opportunity to do a demonstration showing the dangers of ferromagnetic objects in an MRI room. In the future, try to keep your cluelessness in mind before speaking.

[Lightningchase1973]

Some addition: There are often happening incidents with these machines, and usually nothing happens, they are built robust...

[Thedutchjelle]

This could turn into an awesome cannon, if you think about it.

[bimmer0123]

i dont know why they have used magnets like this into like close quarter environments to take down walls without explosions or serious repercussions

[java6623]

not exactly, its a magnet, used to pull objects toward it, once launched, it would be pulled back to the center of the magnet. not saying it wouldnt launch but it wouldnt go far due to the magnet pulling it back.

[Thedutchjelle]

:( You ruined my dream, right there.

[java6623]

sorry, its true, theres a 90% chance it just stays in the middle on the magnet.

[ustupadasso64]

This MRI scanner is a1.5 tesla Seimens Vision. Its was Seimens top of the line Scanner in the mid 90's. It was a great scanner in its day. Now its a millon dollar piece of crap.

[flyrock45]

I'm sure this clip would sit well with the owner of this 1million+ dollar machine.

[raunchbear]

potato(e?) hmm

[consular3]

it was just hungry people God. =P

[sonapraj]

stupid video!

[libra61060]

Sorry missing the point entirly, what's this supposed to demomstrate?

[fuzzywzhe]

> Sorry missing the point entirly, what's this supposed to

> demomstrate?

It demonstrates that fucking morons are perfectly willing to ruin a multi million dollar MRI machine just to make a stupid video, and that they ought to be fired, then sued.

[SpecialKLSX]

That MRI was DOA and was going to be replaced, perfect time to demonstrate how strong the field is on even one that has no power going to it.

[wisteela]

Yep, hence them having to push it in like that.

[ScottSummitVentures]

This is why Vietnam vets can't get MRIs.

[InternetLad]

SCIENCE!!!

[mpn1990]

Redneck Mythbusters...

[lmbebo2]

This is probably a test video from an MRI manufacturer. ALL MRI machines have metal detectors and such strict guidelines to prevent stuff like that happening.

[druidboy76]

No they dont.

[Mednovotob]

Despite the fact that a bunch of agencies and MRI safety experts have all said there SHOULD be special metal detectors (only for magnetic metals) at every MRI, nobody (with any authority) has actually said that you MUST have them. Sadly, it's only the most safety conscious that have them today. Search 'ferromagnetic detection' here on YouTube.

[mred6554]

yea, it does seem like a very stupid thing.

but this isnt some random redneck dicking around. they do this to show people that are going into the medical field the dangers of the MRI machine. it wouldnt be 2 good if you take your grandmaw to get an MRI and she gets killed by a supersonic oxygen tank cuz the ppl working there didnt know it would be dangerous.

[mred6554]

my sister is a nurse you dipshit. she told me thats what they do for training reasons.

nobody is going to buy a $300,000 machine to throw oxygen bottles into because of bordom. nobody in this world is that stupid. i dont care who you are.

i can get just as much satisfaction with a 30-06 and a $10 propane tank.

i wasnt even bitching about anything. i was just saying why they were doing it.

your the one with the ignorant response.

how old are you, 10?

stupid fuck

[mred6554]

im from west virginia.

thats the capitol of rednecks... and my whole family fought for the south... i can say what i want about rednecks becuase i am a redneck.

im not in school. i can give less than 2 shit about how i word thigs.

[a0t0f]

your and ideot

[GeekIsTheNewCool]

@mred6554 ahhhh, YouTube, 4Chan, and the internet at large have finalized the crucifixion and utter demise of polite disagreement.

[Abitibidoug]

I saw this video yesterday at a presentation about MRI machines from a person well informed about them. He said this test was done to demonstrate how strong the magnetic field is, and was done on an older machine that was going to be decommissioned so any damage caused would not be a problem. I also understand the oxygen tank was empty.

[wisteela]

It's a good demo.

[ObiWanBockobi]

Aren't those things like hundreds of thousands of dollars? WTF. It would have been funnier if you tied a cat to the bottle though.

[SaltyTank07]

ahahahahahaha yes it would have been.

[kcg5000]

maybe in the millions

[1Mitera]

@ObiWanBockobi it would have been funnier if we tied you to the bottle

[mexxryan]

STUPID

[napone0]

Dude, now you're going to get fired.

[kcg5000]

its a test. these vids r all over youtube

[junk11111111]

thankfully our heads are free of metals or that would be one heck of a headache :P

[gfpd2722]

i thought those bottles were aluminum

[ATDA]

Just the valve alone being magnetic could be enough to launch it when you're dealing with that kind of magnet.

[gfpd2722]

yeah i guess your right i didnt think about the valve

[bikingrhino]

You should see what happens when you get a full sized cylinder near a NMR :)

[Tylermac1020]

THis is so stupid. Why would you do that to an MRI machine. If something goes wrong and soneone gets her...It's not the machines fault.

[Mednovotob]

Important illustration (just saying magnetic metals are dangerous just doesn't carry the same effect). Magnetic objects, both inside and outside of people's bodies, have hurt / killed in the MRI. Soon codes and accrediting bodies will start requiring special ferromagnetic detectors to help identify these sorts of things BEFORE they get to the MRI room!

[douro20]

Now mind you this is only a 1.5 Tesla magnet. And these things have no magnetism unless the magnet is cooled.

[locouk]

Ok.. Remind me to take out my PA before I go in one of them things...

[Treblaine]

good luck getting that thing back out.

Is suppose this video may be useful when shown to those young and reckless medical professionals who forget how powerful these things are.

[Teltic]

heart heart W

[stalkersas]

wow o.0 if someone was in there it would be tared apart (the botle is 30kg when empty and moves verry fast)

[spiderpig10210]

People have got killed by oxygen tanks flying into the machine!

[playboyloverz]

i wont lie in there with a key in my body or something.

[WishMaster101]

lol

[joeisthesecondcoming]

even if it was being decommissioned it is most definitely not a toy

[divinegoddessartemis]

who hires these people?

[AnimePlanet7]

I believe this effect was going to used in something called a "RAILGUN"! not a 'raygun'

[TUInHighDef]

I would NOT want to be that bottle. xD

[xxxMeisjeeeexxx]

It is an old machine, so they used it to show us the dangers of the MRI scan!

[Donavin1976]

Very nice,,, next time tie the bottle to a liberals neck!!!!

[SmokeyMCP]

They were probably testing it for safety purposes. You know oxygen tanks... Hospitals... You gotta know what would happen.

[Goshokmeta]

you dont do that with the MRI. I am pretty sure they have been decommissioning the machine

[InkaPeru]

they do that at the factory before it's sold.

[moreQQ]

Flannel shirt wearing, mouth breathing, shit bag damages equipment...awesome

[williamwazere]

do they not know how much they cost, fuck

[stringaaaa]

that's a serious dick move

[armondikov]

I'm suprised the impact didn't quench the thing immediately.

[faenor]

bloody hell do this in the UK and your fired period..there expensive and NHS cant afford new ones cus of doing shite like that

[holyvirgin88]

They are crazy, how would they get it ou this now ? It's still On Standby, never out ! ow they have a Problem

[pimgta]

wtf why would you do that to such a expancive machine?

[MortimerKahn]

Why not?

[troshs]

holy SHAT

[bryantcreech]

cooooooooooooooooooooooooooool­

[seanyboy741]

ohhhhhh snap!

[tweevr]

I was wearing a belt buckle in one of these and It was vibrating really weird but it didn't harm anything the lady said

[yascumbag]

i remember a boy died in my country because he was hooked up to an oxygen cylinder and it flew inside and beat him to death!

[Treblaine]

Ah, medical profesionals, trully the finest minds in the country.

[kickboxer88888]

Wow, that's an expencive as hell machine and they did that to it?  Hahaha, that's awesome! It didn't sound like anything was broken so hopefully they didn't screw it up some how. Now I know why they ask if you have metal on you.

[kristovanskilazy]

L0L

[thesouthparkguy]

I hope this machine was broken!

[Hacker9876543210]

LOL!

[elgranto7]

there goes 1 million pounds

[ciolamorta]

Ok, maybe this is de-commissioned machine, but... God... this could save life, one day! I hope that Mr. Siemens will never look at this. And... ah man, these are contribuents' money!!!

[frizspin175]

what are you talking about?

[frizspin175]

what are you talking about?

[headbanger623]

Me Too!

[headbanger623]

Me Too!

[ginfuu]

wtfh man...wtf would you do some dumb ass shit like that...but it was funny though. do it again please ;}

[rootberg]

They should show this clip in their public funding videos :)

[fueltvfan]

i wonder why people place the same comment twice

[fueltvfan]

i wonder why people place the same comment twice

[diwadol]

debile

[gargara]

wow use it as rocket! :D

[generalJB]

U.S. Navy already has. the Railgun.

[gargara]

yes ut that's different.

you should see the one I built.

;) it is a mini gun.

[TVBwatcher]

Yeah this definitely sounds like a de-comissioned MRI machine.  Hopefully this was the case. The tank was drawn in during what sounds like the machine's start-up. A typical MRI emits a sort of techno-puff sound when running on standby.

[asablic]

what the heck is wrong with you, this is an expensive equipment!!

[asablic]

what the heck is wrong with you, this is an expensive equipment!!
