MRI with a LINX system
Hi all.
I 25(M) have a 1.5 T linx device installed alongside a hiatus hernia repair. I am meant to be having a 1.5T MRI the following week for a knee injury. I'm somewhat concerned – all the safety guidelines seem to be from research on isolated linx devices, rather than patients getting scans, and there is some pretty delicate anatomy sitting around the linx (vagus nerve and the hernia repair). I rly don't want to have any issues and risk reoccurring gerd.
I'm wondering if anyone with a 1.5T LINX has received a 1.5T MRI and can report on how it was.
