Jewelry and Metal
Jewelry is often made of metal, which can interact with the MRI's magnetic field.
Metal jewelry can cause magnetic interference, leading to distorted images.
The strong magnetic field can move metal jewelry, posing safety risks during the scan.
Metal jewelry can heat up during an MRI scan, causing burns on your skin.
It’s best to wear comfortable, metal-free shoes like sneakers or flats for your MRI scan.
The MRI's magnetic field can damage your jewelry, especially delicate pieces.
Take off all metal jewelry, including earrings, necklaces, rings, and body piercings.
Always inform the MRI technician if you have any metal implants or cannot remove certain jewelry.
Store your jewelry safely before the scan to prevent loss or damage.
Being prepared helps your MRI scan go smoothly and ensures your safety and comfort
