A member asked:
I didn't realize that i was still wearing my gold ring with diamonds during my mri 2 days ago. could wearing a gold ring cause me harm or distort or cause artifacts in mri images?

No. Concern is for metals that are attracted by magnets ie. steel. as MRI is a magnetic resonance imaging technique. Also implants in the area of the scan are those of concern.
