What if there are surgical staples in stomach can a spine MIR still be done?
Yes, an MRI (Magnetic Resonance Imaging) of the spine can still be done if there are surgical staples in the stomach. The surgical staples are made of a non-ferromagnetic material, such as titanium or stainless steel, which does not interfere with the magnetic fields used in MRI. However, it's essential to inform the MRI technician or radiologist about the presence of surgical staples to ensure proper scanning protocols and avoid any potential complications.
