@poncei1991, according to the following articles, "MRI is a very safe procedure. Because radiation is not used, there is no risk of exposure to radiation during an MRI procedure. You can have multiple MRI examinations without any cumulative effects."

- Risks of Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) https://stanfordhealthcare.org/medical-tests/m/mri/risk-factors.html

Do you have a condition that requires regular follow-up with MRI?

Yes tumors pressing on my outer brain. Need to watch to see if they get bigger. I was also going to have a full body scan. Didn’t know if that was too many.
