We’re the Only Ones Magnetic Enough

An officer then allegedly pulled a sealed emergency release button that shut the MRI machine down, deactivating it, evaporating thousands of liters of helium gas and damaging the machine in the process. The officer then grabbed his rifle and left the room, leaving behind a magazine filled with bullets on the office floor, according to the lawsuit. [More]

All while in the wrong place.

Good thing taxpayers haven’t had to surrender all their money…

So, what do the cavemen get– paid leave?

  1. As an imaging specialist with nearly half century of experience MRI is one of my areas of expertise. ALL patients are rigorously screened for metal before being allowed in the MRI suite. LEO who were scheduled for exams would sometimes get confrontational when told they could NOT take their weapon into the room. And no amount of explanation could get through to some of them. Their penchant for lying about being armed was a major contributor to the routine use of metal detecting wands to screen patients before exams. I also have decades of CT experience and have seen more than one firearm secreted on a patient who lied about having metal on their person. Metal in an MRI can be lethally hazardous. In a CT scanner it’s not a danger but it does create serious artifact on the images so we try to remove all metal from patients being CT scanned. Cops…both on and off duty…seem to believe that rules….even ones with a firm basis in physics, don’t apply to them.

    1. far too many of this “class” of citizen seem to hold themselves above law or regulation of any sort… little godlets, as it were……

      i hope this pig-headed little copper receives a suitable share in the loss to be charged against his hiring “department”, hopefully to include as exit ticket from his current “mode d’emploi”

      I don’t think I’ll bother checking up on the progress of this court action, though…..

      The very name of the instrument, MRI, should be a clue o its nature. Admittedly not many know the basis for the acronym: Magnetic Resonance Imagine”. Emphasis on the first word of the string.

      Ignorance might be excusible. Arrogance and pride are not. Unfortunately these later two seem to be prerequisites for employment in his line of “work”..
