MRIs and dental work

Hello all. I am in the dental field and it was my understanding that dental work is safe in MRIs. Obviously if it something removable it should be removed prior. I recently had a patient who said he can’t have an MRI because of the metal post in his tooth and I’m wondering where he got that info. Anyway a quick google search and it’s as clear as mud. Some source say it’s ok and some said there are risks. The material use could be stainless steel or it could be cobalt-chromium or nickel-chromium. What do you all in the radiology field say?

AI for radiology - A survey

Hello folks! We are a group of students from Karolinska Institutet and Stockholm University (Sweden). We are conducting a short survey (it should not take more than 10 minutes of your time) to evaluate an Artificial Intelligence framework for evaluating medical imaging and, in particular, the effect that explainability can have on clinicians' attitudes toward it. We welcome anyone who interacts with medical imaging to take our survey, so please, feel free to do it even if you are still a student or an intern! If you know someone who works in the field, please, pass them the survey. It would help us greatly. https://bit.ly/RTEX_survey Thanks in advance to all of you! submitted by /u/francozzz [link] [comments] source https://www.reddit.com/r/Radiology/comments/r2ratp/ai_for_radiology_a_survey/
