An MRI machine produces a series of loud, rhythmic knocking or thumping sounds during the scanning process, often described as a mix of clanging or banging noises. These sounds are generated by the movement of the machine's components and the rapid switching of magnetic fields. While the noise can be startling, headphones or earplugs are typically provided to help reduce the sound. Patients are often advised to remain still during the scan to ensure clear images.
Tell a doctor about it if you think its bad. It doesn't sound like you have to worry about this.

Technically, no. An acronym is a new word made from the initials of other words like 'WHO' for the world health organisation. "MRI" is an abbreviation, not an acronym. MRI stands for 'Magnetic Resonance Imaging'.
No, MRI (Magnetic Resonance Imaging) does not use sound waves; it relies on strong magnetic fields and radiofrequency pulses. The magnetic field aligns hydrogen atoms in the body, and the radiofrequency pulses disturb this alignment. When the pulses are turned off, the hydrogen atoms emit signals as they return to their original state, and these signals are then converted into images by the MRI machine.
I would look at schools like ITT Tech and DeVry. Sanford Brown has a great MRI school.
MRI uses short bursts of radio, at frequencies of a few tens to a few hundreds of Megahertz. Exactly the same radiation that comes out of an ordinary TV transmitter, but in short bleeps, and without any sound or picture modulation on it.
There are different types of MRI devices, however, one of the biggest and most common things that would disqualify a patient getting an MRI would be metal in the body. Surgical pins, staples in the stomach and the like.
If the MRI technologist positions you with your leg going into the magnet (the MRI machine) then your head would be out of it. Call the facility where you are scheduled to have the MRI and ask to speak with the MRI technologist and they can fully explain to you exactly how you will be positioned.
MRI Magnetic Resonance Imaging. An MRI does not use dangerous radiation like an X-ray does. It is just a powerful magnetic field that (so far) hasn't been associated with any deliberating effect.
