You CANNOT have an MRI while having a SCS in you. the MRI uses magnetic fields to create the image and it can pull on ur lead/battery. you can't have any type on metal on you while having one, they make you remove all jewelry while having one because earrings or piercings can be ripped out of you.

when i had my scs they could only do ct scans on me.
