I've had it at least 18 yrs, and have only had 1 MRI during that time. (That was by choice too though ...).

MRI's are generally only used for diagnostic purposes here. Both my daughters have had one, for different reasons (and "non-emergency"), and they had them within a week - month. If they REALLY think something is there, they will go looking for it, but not just for looky loo purposes.
