No spandex in an MRI

[my little penguin]

Doctors are warning patients not to wear spandex clothing when coming in for a magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) procedure.
Fabrics that use spandex often have metallic threads that could react with the machine and cause burns on patients.
Radiologists and hospitals are now banning all athleisure during MRIs, and some are calling Lululemon out

Yikes! My daughters have worn yoga pants while having an MRI - in fact, they have done so for many MRIs!! But recently they have been made to change into a gown, I think.

So that makes sense now

I just threw away some spandex leggings. Ha Ha. Too tight to wear. My gut was being crushed.

Don't think Jack often wears spandex but they put him in a gown when he was smaller and scrubs this last one, he really liked wearing the scrubs for it.
