Yes, you can typically have an MRI on your back five weeks after a titanium knee replacement, as titanium is generally non-magnetic and will not interfere with MRI imaging. However, it is essential to inform your healthcare provider about your recent surgery and any implants, as they may have specific protocols to follow. Always consult with your doctor for personalized advice based on your health status and medical history.
