To those who have been to OSF and has had an MRI or X-ray, did you have to take piercings out even if they were plastic?
I'll probably been getting an MRI which I've had before but never at OSF. My previous MRI I took off all my jewelry confidently because I've had them done for years and I knew they wouldn't close. But I recently got my belly button pierced and it is still early in it's healing stages. It is only 2 months and is currently implant grade titanium but if I switched it out to a clear plastic would they still let me wear it? I just don't want my new piercing to close! I know my MRI's will be over 30 minutes if this helps.
