I had a MRI scan for my brain one time I didn't know why it was hard to deal with I was very scared I was only a little girl at that time I didn't know or couldn't understand these noises are for but now I know what these noises are for but also now I'm learning how to get over the fears of having A MRI scan I am very proud of myself for not giving up
I have to get brain MRI's every 6 months due to a meningioma and will eventually stretch out to every 2 years for the rest of my life...I'm just grateful that I am not claustrophobic at all, I fall asleep half the time and imagine I'm blasting off to space the other half 🎉
@@fishingfan1500 ive done one where i was diagnosed with ms so ill have to do one every 6 months at least. Thankfully I closed my eyes and got lost into the sounds, sometimes I was beatboxing and feeling like I was at a rave party,lol. So weird but I really hope I am that comfortable with the rest scans Ill have to do.
Everybody on Earth loves hearing me do a capella impressions of MRI sounds; I merely adapted my human beatbox skeelz to this new endeavor. I'm trying to shop an album of nothing but me making MRI sounds to major record labels now with... mixed success. But I'm still working on it. My artist name is Mr. MRI, so be checking the 99ç bargain cassette barrel at your local Valuehaus!
MRI scanners are so relaxing to me, i like sitting inside. Anyways, the first MRI i got was in a GE Model (I think, it may have been a Siemens or a Philips.) it was a brain scan because i kept having migraines for unknown reasons, we didn’t find anything except that i had inflamed sinuses.
one more question, actually 3. 1- what do gradient coils look like? 2- Why does the same sequence on different scanners sound different when they have the same gradient coil?? 3- what are the loudest sequences? and why so much louder? for example- DTI
1) fingerprints but around a tube 2) grandient coils difference in performance and sequences difference in parameters different t2 sequence might have many different sounds even when performed on the same scanner 3) from personal experience i'd say large FOV gradient echo images or extremely high resolutions gradient echo... basically whatever uses the most out of your gradients is bound to be noisy
This is so helpful. I should be able to be awake for any scan I have to do now and handle it. It helps Me as I am super sensitive to loud noises- the all Of a sudden noises that jump right out in front me like a fire alarm or MRI sound. This is so helpful
You are very right. I don’t think I am as afraid of the scans anymore. I mean of course depends if it is a closed bore or open but I think now I just wear the head phones for protection. But music would be a bonus
I believe they are required to provide ear phones/earplugs to help eliminate noise…… But I’m definitely with you as far as sound sensitivities is concerned. I remember one time when I had an MRI done, I was given a special pair of headphones, and I got to enjoy some steel drum music during the scan…… Imagining myself relaxing on the beach.
Wow thanks so much I learned so much! So cool how mri works I’m still amazed by it and it’s advanced technology. Why can’t they make a 3t stand up mri? What would happen to ur camera if u scanned it?
A stand-up 3T MRI would be the best. I imagine it is not the most cost-effective solution though. The Fonar stand-up MRI I work with is over twice the size of a conventional MRI and takes up a whole scan room just for the magnet. This FONAR is only 0.6T so I would think a 3T probably needs a dedicated hospital :) 3T MRI scanners are always tough to film because the fringe magnetic field extends so far out. Come to think of it, I'm sure there's a prototype out there. I'll do a little research and see if I can take some video.
I’ve had brain M.R.I myself and watched a video from this channel on heart M.R.I, I was wondering what causes the different noises between each scan? Is it frequency or that a different part of the body is being scanned?
If I ever have to have an MRI, they had better knock my butt completely out. Put me under general anesthesia and intubate me because I am not going to stay still for this. All these noises AND being confined in a huge tube?!?! This is a huge nope.
It’s so funny how people are so different. I really look forward to my MRIs when I get to have them. I find the noises and closed space to be super relaxing lol. I listen the the long sequence clip on this channel heaps when I need to chill out lol. I think I’m the different one haha
I think it’s funny that when I had an FMRI that a vitamin E capsule was taped to one side of my forehead. I was told that this was so left and right couldn’t get mixed up in case the images got flipped. This seemed like a very low tech solution in a multimillion dollar machine. Maybe the technician was just playing a practical joke on me.
Me too! I get intubated for them! But now I started Cognitive Behavior Therapy and I'm doing exposures. I lay on my back and listen to these sounds to practice what it will be like, and to make myself see that I could do it. Just stated and my MRI is in 6 weeks. Fingers crossed!
I went thru this morning, It was very scary experience in my life. Terrible sound + unable breathing at small compartment. Eventually I pressed emergency button after 5min. Switched over to CT scan. Just like move from hell to heaven. Lesson learn, don’t Torture yourself with MRI. Peace 🫰
@@thunder_headshope MRI won’t scared you with their loudest sound 😊😊😊 as i think it is so annoying. Can’t imaging such laser sound and hammer knocking sound over your head. 😢😢😢

I feel you, I had a pineal Germinoma and have had dozens over the years, I almost fell asleep every time 😜
All the best 🙂

The Axial DWI EPI sounds like aliens are trying to make contact with us
Tomorrow i ll go for it..
I will remember this just to smile in that lonely electronic place
Just got back from the first MRI of my brain. Wow!
So cool to see! Thanks for making this!!
That was my first scanner. Had 2 whole channels. She was a beast.
MRI scanners are so relaxing to me, i like sitting inside. Anyways, the first MRI i got was in a GE Model (I think, it may have been a Siemens or a Philips.) it was a brain scan because i kept having migraines for unknown reasons, we didn’t find anything except that i had inflamed sinuses.
Which sequence involves a very loud and deep machine gun sound with simultaneous high-pitched beeps? Thank you.
one more question, actually 3.
1- what do gradient coils look like?
2- Why does the same sequence on different scanners sound different when they have the same gradient coil??
3- what are the loudest sequences? and why so much louder? for example- DTI

Headphones help

Great video thank you for sharing and going into detail about each sequence.
Thank you for the video, it really helpful.

Hey can you make a video of a hand scan of phillips ingenia mri?
I’ve had brain M.R.I myself and watched a video from this channel on heart M.R.I, I was wondering what causes the different noises between each scan? Is it frequency or that a different part of the body is being scanned?
0:27 world's friendliest jumpscare
Thanks for explanation!
I can't seem to find any sounds from a true open MRI no matter where I look, is there a possibility for a video on it in the future?
Same. I found one on TH-cam shorts tho. It's frustrating because I want to hear them too
@Lacey Barbee I've always wondered why there seems to be no footage of their sounds. It would really make deciding to get one easier or not 🫠
Hey,
Leah sure does Like you. This video was helpful though
❤great informacion

Did It Yesterday, I went asleep 😅
And I'm claustrophobic
Request: do the sounds on the ge voyager 1.5t mri or do the sounds on the ge 3T 750w
YES!
At least now I know what all that racket is
The Pile Drivers from Hell. :-D
Brain Axial T2 FLAIR gave me electric shock sensations.

axial T2 flair sound like scan brain sound
Bahar çiftçi 👍👂✔️🎧♻️🎧👍✔️🎧
I’m very claustrophobic and there’s no way I can do an MRI with those noises. 😭😟😖
Me too! I get intubated for them! But now I started Cognitive Behavior Therapy and I'm doing exposures. I lay on my back and listen to these sounds to practice what it will be like, and to make myself see that I could do it. Just stated and my MRI is in 6 weeks. Fingers crossed!
i tried doing it not sedated yesterday i could not shit scared me
Request an open mri, and Valium. Open mri are quieter.
Valium is a sedative so you are sedated and can get thru the scan
I 100% recommend getting a sedative, my mom is also claustrophobic and need to get knee/hip/spine/shoulder MRIs once a year and she always get sedated
5:24 Phillips style is better
Beatbox machines

I had my first seizure after a brain MRI
