    Very informative Ken. Unfortunately when I had an MRI a couple years ago when I was going through prostate cancer I didn't get asked anything about metal working. No problems so I guess I didn't have any fragments. My question is if titanium implants cause any problems? Nowadays most orthopedic hardware I'm familiar with is titanium rather than stainless steel.

    If Titanium were a problem I'd have been plastered to the Simon Med 3T magnet a long time ago.
    I have Titanium in my back and neck.
    Titanium is a non-ferrous metal.... a magnetic field will have no effect on it.
