A magnetic field is not radiation. The changing RF fields used are, but they're not ionizing radiation (the dangerous kind) like that found in CT scans. The radiation used in MRIs should not be able to induce any changes to the molecular structure of your body, but RF burns can still be a risk. (Clothing and even tattoo ink can exacerbate this, fascinating!) The biggest risk seems to be being bonked by loose medical equipment, but I don't think that's what you were asking about. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2705217/ |
