My mother who was subjected to countless radiation exposures for the constant searches of the MRI was the 'burning' her last couple years she experienced, but could not explain in her body, free of certain chemotherapy drugs.
I understand that MRI's are the saving grace of diagnosis but it definitely proves that the overexposure has to be counted, as many take that as harmless.
A friend of mine that worked in Texas has a wife suffering from cancer, she just had reconstructive breast surgery that's not going well at all. Apparently the skin where it's being reattached is dying, leaving her open like a cut filet on a fish. One infection and she's back in the hospital.
This guy said he worked at a medical office that had a "former" MRI center in the building. When they shut it down, moved out the equipment, they turned it into a storage room for films and documentation files, computer related file data.
He said that within 1 year they started to notice that the files were corrupting, badly and it took a great deal of time to figure this out:
That MRI machine had magnetized the rebar in the concrete floor, and you could drop anything metallic, like a metal pin and it would roll to the center of the room where the machine was, almost glued to the floor.
That machine is awesome, but there are going to be harmful effects to overexposure. I would take my chances if I knew the risk outbeats the current reason why I'm using it to dx a serious problem.
