Guest guest Posted November 21, 2008 Report Share Posted November 21, 2008 Hi all, I answered my own question.with this excellent article " Titanium, like all metals, has the drawback in that it is not translucent to X-rays or MRI scans. So once installed, it can blur or hide anatomical changes. But unlike steel, titanium is non-ferrous, so magnets used in MRI machines will not exert a force on them " valerie http://machinedesign.com/ContentItem/59180/HardwareforBackSurgery.aspx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
