The clips are made of titanium, which is not ferrous. Although even non-ferrous staples can be affected by the magnetic flux lines of the magnet. After the body has a chance to form scar tissue around the staples (between 3-4 weeks)--- after that you should be fine to undergo MRI. fg >> Hey! Where have you been?
