I should have said that I need to use one of these while I get an MRI.
They clang and I don't like the MRI in the first place. This place
doesn't have music or radio via headphones.


Never had an MRI but like others when I am at the shooting range use both.

Lots of folks are also given tranquilizers before getting the MRI.
