Getting an MRI with Metal or Implants in Your Body - ARA Diagnostic Imaging

This video explains the importance of not bringing metal near an MRI machine and disclosing any possible metal with your body before being imaged.
Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is a medical imaging technique that uses a powerful magnetic field to produce detailed images of the body's organs and tissues. However, this also means that any metal objects in or on the body can interfere with the MRI scan or cause serious harm.
Some metals can experience a magnetic force in the scanner, pulling them out of your body or damaging the machine. In addition, metal objects can distort the MRI images, making them less accurate or unreadable. Metal objects can heat up, move, or break during the MRI scan, potentially injuring the patient or damaging the MRI machine.
It is crucial to be aware of bringing metal into an MRI exam and to inform the ARA scheduler of any metal implants, devices, or accessories you have before your scan.
