I work in the scientific branch of MRI (and NMR in general) and I can assure you that those magnets (4 - 10 Tesla) are very well insulated. You can have your keys in your pocket and litterally lie right under the magnet while working on the specrometers and you won't feel an effect. The Magnets in the medical field are usually not even that strong so you wont recognize an effect.
I dont really buy into the magnetic mri thing. Ive seen vids buuuuut....... Ive got a chip from a hammer face in my finger.good sized chip. Ive had a few mris done. They ask about metal in my eyes,take me piercings out,ni keys in pockets yadda yadda. I ask what about the chip in my finger? They look at me all dumbfounded. Ive never had an mri bother the chip. Only time the chip bothers me is if it gets squished between tge fingers and its been in there 30 years.
Oh and when mythbusters tells you that you cant chip a hammer face by smacking 2 of tgem together,theyre full of shit cuz thats exactly how i got the chip in my finger.
