Cat eye nail polish and MRI

So I know obviously ferrous metals is a no go and that metal may heat up but I was curious about cat eye nail polish. Was wondering if it reacts with the MRI scanner at all. I wasn't sure if there is enough magnetized particles in the polish to cause an effect.

For example, I wear my 14k earrings in the scanner room all the time. Gold itself is non-ferrous but 14k is only 57 percent gold and mixed with other alloys but I know it's not enough to cause a noticeable reaction but then again I'm only going in there to get a patient on and off the table.

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/
