Can You Have an MRI with Metal in Your Body?

Having something metallic in your body doesn’t necessarily mean you can’t have an MRI scan, but it’s important for the MRI tech who is carrying out the scan to be aware of it.

Implanted metal in your body can include: brain aneurysm clips, inner ear implants, pacemaker or pacing wires, metal fragments including piercings, bobby pins, tattoos, permanent makeup, and much more!
