Question:

What should you not wear in an MRI machine?

I'm going in on Tuesday (july15th) to get an MRI of my brainI'm aware that you shouldn't wear jewelry or things like that (I'm not planning on wearing jeans either as they have metal buttons and such) and I've recently learned that you shouldn't wear underwire brasBut what about the metal clasps on the bra? And on one of the sites that I stumbled upon it said not to wear eyeshadow with glitter in itIs that true? And could my braces have any ill effect on the MRI?Thanks so much for your help, it's very appreciated.

Using batter w/ pudding in it could help, but you can always put the food in the microwave for a few seconds and the heat usually softens it up.
If you want to be sure that your MRI technologist will allow you to keep your street cloths on, and not make you change into a gown, make sure you are wearing NO metal.including your braIf you have a sports bra with no clasps etc, wear thatIf not, you might ask your technologist if you can just slip your bra off and leave your shirt on, rather than don a gownMost MRI scan rooms are kept rather cold, so your street clothes will keep you warmer than a gown.not to mention, help you keep your modestyBy the way, I work on an Open MRI, and I allow my patients to wear their jeans, bras (even underwired bras) etc for a brain MRIThe metal is far enough from the head that it does not cause a problemI have never had to ask a patient to remove eye make up before a MRISo, that I cannot really comment onYou can have a MRI if you have bracesThere is no danger to you or the MRI unit If you have removable dental appliances (such as bridges or retainers), we ask you to remove thoseIf the dental work is permanent, we don't worry about itBraces can cause an artifact on the images.which means it can distort the images, especially the area nearest your teeth.
