A New York man suffered gruesome injuries after he was sucked
into an MRI machine while wearing a long metal necklace.
The man, 61, who has not been identified by police, was wounded
after he entered an exam room in Nassau Open MRI in Long Island
on Wednesday.
He was not the patient being examined and didn't have authorization
to enter the room, police said.
The man, who was with someone else at the clinic, was magnetically
drawn into the machine by the metal chain around his neck, Nassau
County Police said.
This caused a medical episode for the man, who was rushed to a
local hospital in critical condition.
. . .
Those machines use a HUGE magnetic field. Would have
been like someone in a passing car grabbed his chain.
And nobody even knows why he went into the room.
The man died of a heart attack later. He had a 20 lb chain around his neck.

WESTBURY, N.Y. (AP) — A man who was pulled into an MRI machine in New
York after he walked into the room wearing a large weight-training chain
around his neck has died, according to police and his wife, who told a
local television outlet that he waved goodbye before his body went limp.
The man, 61, had entered an MRI room while a scan was underway Wednesday afternoon at Nassau Open MRI. The machine’s strong magnetic force drew
him in by the metallic chain around his neck, according to a release
from the Nassau County Police Department.
He died Thursday afternoon, but a police officer who answered the phone
at the Nassau County police precinct where the MRI facility is located
said the department had not yet been given permission to release the
name Saturday.
Adrienne Jones-McAllister told News 12 Long Island in a recorded
interview that she was undergoing an MRI on her knee when she asked the technician to get her husband, Keith McAllister, to help her get off the
table. She said she called out to him.
She told News 12 that the technician summoned into the room her husband,
who was wearing a 20-pound chain that he uses for weight training, an
object they’d had a casual conversation about during a previous visit
with comments like: “Ooooooh, that’s a big chain!”
When he got close to her, she said, “at that instant, the machine
switched him around, pulled him in and he hit the MRI.”
“I said: ‘Could you turn off the machine, call 911, do something, Turn
this damn thing off!’” she recalled, as tears ran down her face. “He
went limp in my arms.”
She said the technician helped her try to pull her husband off the
machine but it was impossible.
“He waved goodbye to me and then his whole body went limp,” Jones-McAllister told the TV outlet.
Jones-McAllister told News 12 that McAllister suffered heart attacks
after he was freed from the MRI machine.
A person who answered the phone at Nassau Open MRI on Long Island
declined to comment Friday. The phone number went unanswered on Saturday.
It wasn’t the first New York death to result from an MRI machine.
In 2001, 6-year-old Michael Colombini of Croton-on-Hudson was killed at
the Westchester Medical Center when an oxygen tank flew into the
chamber, drawn in by the MRI’s 10-ton electromagnet.
In 2010, records filed in Westchester County revealed that the family
settled a lawsuit for $2.9 million.
MRI machines “employ a strong magnetic field” that “exerts very powerful forces on objects of iron, some steels, and other magnetizable objects,” according to the National Institute of Biomedical Imaging and
Bioengineering, which says the units are “strong enough to fling a
wheelchair across the room.”
