  • some sweet info here

  • Whoa man glad I took my jewelry off for my MRI this morning! Haha

  • That's cool video:)

  • I'm thinkin' a steel compressed gas cylinder would be fun to let into the room...:)

  • @TheCrazy243 your screws should be very safe. Generally after a month or so after having surgery with implanted metal, it's safe to have an MRI. The exceptions to this would be if you had a pacemaker, or an aneurysm clip in your brain.

    And you'd be unlikely to have an MRI of the knee anyway. The presence of metal around the bit that is scanned causes a lot of artefact and parts of the image aren't there.

  • are permanent retainers magnetic?

  • @TheCrazy243 Dude I got to steal rods in my back and,,,,15 StrewsI in my jax gotta for one of thes aug 24th on my brain!!! Think I had a brain fart and all the gas is stuck up there!! I'm fucked

  • @TheCrazy243 It should be, but the MRI scanners will know more.

  • i like to put steel object in my rectum is it dangerous ?
