The small mirror in some of the MRI tubes that allows the patient a view of the room during the procedure. This really helps to ease the closed in feeling of being in the tube. A small addition that makes such a big difference.

I never liked being in an MRI but always tolerated it as I would close my eyes before I slid in and stayed that way until I was done and “free”.
For whatever reason, this past year I had another one and barely tolerated it and then I told them to let me out - I was having trouble staying still. It was for my neck/cervical spine. They asked if I could hang in there another 15 min and no, I couldn’t.
I never had a panic attack until my grandchild was diagnosed with a brain tumor and I think that was my trigger 😢
