High-definition pictures of the inside of a body are provided by MRI scans, which are powerful diagnostic tools. As demonstrated by a case in which a young woman had quite significant injuries as a result of a mistake in a metallic core in a silicone sex toy she occurred to have before the MRI scan, strong magnetic fields need prudence.
 
This serves as a clear warning of the potentially fatal outcomes of missing metal items during such treatments. A 23-year-old lady had a silicone plug with an unknown metal core during an MRI in april 2023.

According to the advertisement, she believed the product was composed completely of silicone. Nevertheless, the concealed metal was dragged through her body by the MRI machine's powerful magnetic field, which resulted in severe pain. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) said that the situation was horrific, with the woman crying in pain and needing to be taken to the hospital right away. The patient assumed the device was totally non-metallic, thus he did not notify the facility of its existence despite pre-scan checks, which are standard before a scan. Due to the severe injuries sustained, the patient filed a lawsuit against the manufacturer for making false and misleading claims about the material content.
 
Magnets used in MRI equipment range in strength from 0.5 to 3 tesla (T). The Earth's magnetic field is hundreds of times weaker than this. Ferromagnetic elements, such as iron and nickel, are rapidly magnetized and powerfully attracted to the magnet due to the immense force. Inside the magnetic field, even little objects like paper clips or hairpins will accelerate at 40 miles per hour.
 
When foreign objects or metallic implants become stuck within the body, the force can cause catastrophic injury. To avoid such issues, radiologists must be informed about metallic cores in devices such as pacemakers or intrauterine devices.
