Скачать или смотреть MRI death: Man dies after heavy metal chain pulls him into machine

A 61-year-old man died after a metal chain around his neck was pulled into an MRI machine at a Long Island imaging center.

Police say Keith McCallister entered the MRI room to assist a patient despite warnings from a technician not to go inside.

Investigators are reviewing safety protocols as experts stress the life-threatening risks posed by MRI machines' powerful magnets.

The man reportedly entered the MRI room at Nassau Open MRI Wednesday afternoon to help a patient despite being advised not to by a technician.

The metal chain around his neck was pulled into the machine’s powerful magnetic field, triggering what police called a "medical episode." He was rushed to a hospital in critical condition and later died.
