Can an MRI be safely continued/completed if a foreign body is found and then identified as a metal nut (very likely ferrous)?
Check my post history for more information.
I'm trying to clear up whether or not this is even a possibility. I'm being told I probably swallowed a metal nut. It's in my abdominal cavity, and the location led them to believe it is in my digestive tract.
I really don't see an accidental, random nut I would have swallowed being nonferrous (due to expense).
I do know it's possible, but I can't handle the smallest bit of gristle. I also have titanium fusion hardware (what the scan was for, I'm having pain).
