Weird. I had an MRI a month ago or so and had to change into provided scrub like clothing.

i had two in the past year, both times I had 2 gowns. They did let me keep my underwear on.

Something weird here. I need more info before I believe it.

Ditto on the scrubs for the MRI.

Particularly like the Bon Jovi-esque comment, just the first few lines:

Shot in the *** and you’re to blame

You give guns a bad name.

There is a well documented case of a 1911 with the manual safety engaged firing when exposed to an MRI.

Play stupid games.... I'm no mathematician, but I understand how an MRI functions.

So you are safe if you have a Polymer gun.

Like a glock.

Other things to not take into an MRI room: compressed gas cylinders, steak knives...

MRI is no joke...
its a NO METAL ZONE...



Even aluminum and some non ferrous metals can do some freaky things.

I'm going to be getting a cochlear implant sometime next year.
I wonder if that would be affected by an MRI. It's magnetic. Not sure if the part in your skull is or the the part that attaches to it.
I wonder if the MRI would pull that out of your skull?

I can tell a bunch of y’all haven’t read the article or this little gem would have been pointed out.

“It isn’t just guns that can be dangerous while next to an MRI—people have gotten seriously hurt and killed by wheelchairs, oxygen tanks, and even metallic butt plugs.”

Yes the MRI butt plug is infamous.

MRI's have been known to fire guns.
What happens is you often have a ferrous metal steel firing pin, in an alloy slide (much less ferrous)...
Flip on the MRI, the magnet yanks the firing pin into the primer.

I know we all like our guns.. but please.. keep all metal away from MRIs

Oh. I guess I’m not up to speed on my MRI lore.

Ask them, ether the MRI operators, or people putting the implants in..

This Is Why You Should Never Wear A Metal Butt Plug In An MRI Machine

A scan going around the internet allegedly shows what happens if you do.

And you all have any doubt an MRI can yank a steel firing pin into a primer fast enough to detonate it?
