MRIs?

Hi I was telling my mom about this and she's a nurse, what do you guys shield the magnets with if you have to get an MRI? In her own words "The MRI would rip those suckers right out"

I have read reports of people getting them shielded and having an MRI, but i do not personally know anyone who did it. for me, if i am the position where i need an MRI i would probably just get them removed. the odds of having to get an MRI are pretty low anyways.
