I’m pretty sure that lead does not shield attraction from magnetic fields. If it did, it would do so by becoming itself interactive with the magnetic field, which would not help the situation.

I remember a safety demonstration I saw about 15 years ago where they had a wooden plank set up in front of an MRI machine. A technician had a flat head screwdriver in his front pocket. When they ran the machine the tool “jumped” from his pocket and was embedded into the plank.

This a special kind of stupid article. You don’t take off all your cloths for an MRI.

But taking a gun into the MRI room is just stupid

No name or pictures of the woman. I’m going to assume that I don’t need to guess who at this point.

If I’m going to shoot myself,it’s gonna be BEFORE I have to get into that MRI Coffin-like machine! ;)

I had an MRI last week.
Stripped and put on scrubs.
The rivets on jeans will rip away.
Taking a firearm into an MRI is stupid.
And stupid should hurt.
