Magnetic Resonance Imaging Safety Guidelines

Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) safety guidelines ensure a safe environment for patients and staff. Before an MRI, you'll be asked about metal implants, pacemakers, or devices, as these can be affected by the magnetic field. All jewelry, watches, and electronic devices must be removed. Visitors with metal or electronic items are usually not allowed in the MRI room. During the scan, strict protocols are followed to avoid injury from the powerful magnet, and communication with the technician is maintained throughout. These precautions help prevent harm and ensure high-quality imaging results.
