@stux whoa! 🤯 Never realised there was actually spinny stuff inside them, just assumed there were a ring of magnets that pulsed in sequence.

@stux Very impressive, but it does make me a little sad.We are capable of making amazing and clever machines (like a CT scanner) to assist doctors and the medical profession, but spend the money and effort on horrible machines (tanks, missiles, guns) that mean that doctors and surgeons are required.

@stux most probably it's like car rims, where they just add small ballasts until it's balanced.

@qotca @stux No, MRIs don’t move.The Ring of an MRI is a very strong static Magnet, and small magnetic Coils with variable Fields are placed around the body parts you want to examine.

@MarcelNBG @qotca I was also checking for this before posting and indeed there's a difference! It was orignally posted as MRI but after some checks it turned out to be a CT

@stux @jakob I've had, maybe, 10.They sure do spin. And they're loud. The techs give you headphones with your choice of music. And a warm blanket. No. Metal. Either in, or outside, your body. Still loud.
