#1 The man was transported to a local hospital, where he succumbed to his injuries the next day

So the MRI fatality stats remain pristine.

#3 This low cost MRI clinic (NOT affiliated with a Hospital or regional health care system) is part of a larger for-profit chain that has been investigated before due to safety concerns.

They (Nassau MRI) only do MRI's.

Also don't try for their website(s). NY one is offline (for 'reasons') and the main group's site has a built-in port scanner.

#5 You know, the last time I had to have an MRI, they wanded me. You know, like security.
I wasn't insulted, and the guy said "It's safer for everybody."

#6 Horrible death, but this is Darwin-ish. A 20-pound chain ("necklace")? Yeah, I always go around with the equivalent of a few sacks of potatoes around my neck.

MRI clinic definitely seems a bit fishy.

#7 Wondering how the patient in the scanner fared when the whale collided with the scanner. Owie! JHC!
