Can someone with an artificial hip replacement have a mri?
Most contemporary orthopedic implants are made of non-magnetic metals, so there is little danger to these patients in terms of magnetic attraction. It is always critical to positively identify each and every implant and device within your body, however, before receiving an MRI. Even non-magnetic metals do interact with the magnetic field of the MRI and may distort or disrupt the image that the MRI captures in the vicinity of the implant. A non-ferromagnetic hip replacement may not have any significant effect on an MRI of your ankle or head, but may impair your ability to have a successful scan for, as an example, a prostate.
