Leave Metal Behind
Remember, metal and MRIs don’t mix! Remove all jewelry, watches, and belts.
Wear comfy, metal-free clothes like sweatpants and a t-shirt.
Leave your phone, headphones, and coins outside. They’re not MRI-friendly!
Tell your doctor if you have any implants like braces or heart devices.
Make sure you feel good. If you’re sick, tell your doctor.
You can eat and drink before your MRI unless your doctor says otherwise.
During the MRI, staying still makes your pictures clear. Pretend you’re a statue!
MRI machines make loud noises. It’s normal, so don’t be scared!
That’s it! The MRI is quick and painless.
