Want this question answered?
I have one in my skull too. And I've had a couple of MRIs in my life with no problems. But you shouldn't be asking here. Ask your doctor!
No u can't. An MRI is done by a giant magnet.
Generally, MRI's are used to "see" inside the skull. There are many other devices that measure things in the skull like intracranial pressure but to "see" inside the skull is something only an MRI can accomplish (without killing someone and cracking their skull open of course).
Yes as long as it has no metal in it. If it has any metal then no, as an MRI is like a giant magnet.

Spinal MRI is probably safe in pregnancy. But then follow up periodic ultrasound examinations are mandatory.
one o the greatest heat conducters is GOLD it is even used in machings in the hospital. E.G. MRI
Glitter in powder makeup often comes from fish scales. I'd recommend not putting on makeup before your MRI, or calling the manufacturer of a specific product you are worried about.

You can probably have an MRI but the doctors will want to check out a few things before they do it. Stents are normally made from non-feromagnetic metals and so should be fine they will be able to check what type of stent you have in your medical records but my choose to confirm this with further testing. Metal plates that have been in place longer than 6 weeks and have become fused to the bone are fine also. They will probably want to confirm that the plate is well fused so it will not move once you are inside the magnet of the MRI scanner perhaps using a standard x-ray.
One of the main complaints made by patients needing an MRI is the claustrophobia that comes with a traditional closed MRI. Many patients avoid MRI testing, or experience high levels of anxiety during the process. An open MRI provides accurate high-quality diagnostic imaging, in a comfortable setting. Patients undergoing testing using an open MRI can be assured that they are receiving the most advanced diagnostic technology, without the stress of feeling confined.
