I'm a former NMR spectroscopist (a chemist who works with the same technology as MRI devices--though at even higher magnetic field strengths to in order to study the shapes of various molecules). I've quite spent a lot of time working around high-field superconducting NMRs without incident. To clarify the the "nuclear" part, magnetic resonance technology does not in any way involve nuclear reactions or the ensuing ra…
Cool, thanks for sharing your experience! OK if I repost this comment on my blog? (Or maybe you want to repost it yourself?)
Thanks! Looking forwards to writing more about this.
