Will diamonds burn in a cremation retort?
Customarily, according to Wikipedia, below: " Jewellery, such as necklaces, wrist-watches and rings, are ordinarily removed before cremation, and returned to the family."

How do you find out what type of metal was put into your leg during surgery-you need an MRI?
Every medical implant is provided to the hospital / surgeon with a card that positively identifies what it is, who made it, and when. If your surgeon provided you with this implant card (he or she should have), it should have all the information that the MRI center needs to determine whether it's safe to scan you. If you don't have this card, contact the surgeon / hospital that implanted the metal in your leg and see if the operative notes positively identify the implant (they should). Share any and all information you get about the implant with the MRI staff so that they can work with you to determine if it's safe for you to have an MRI.

How much does a total hip implant cost?
From what I have learned the hip implant costs should be around $70,000 up to $100,000 more or less, with that amount you could get a decent hip implant. By the way I'd like to advice you to prefer ceramic ones over metal on metal, as metal and metal ones could cause possible side effects as seen on this material I have found on the web about defects coming from metal hip implant such as Smith And Nephew's R3, yet there are also other hip implants available which could be convenient and safe for you. You can check this site for the info about claims http://www.rotlaw.com/smith-nephew-r3/---Nothing in Britain, it's covered by national insurance and performed by the NHS.
