One of my biggest fears in para/emergency medicine was having to do a rushed MRI transfer. We were so undermanned that there was only one technician in the whole MRI clinic. If the patient was unstable or combative or went into cardiac arrest or we just didn't have enough hands to transfer them with the emergency staff, it was me going in with a bunch of metal on me. There's no time to pause and consider if the metal parts of my boot are going to suddenly amputate my legs or if a pen in my shirt is going to impale me.
STOP DOING ELECTROMAGNETISM. They have played us for absolute fools.
