This was long before tattoos were ever regulated and before more serious thought was given as to the safety of tattoo ink ingredients. Some MRI patients who have had tattoos that dated back far enough to have received ink that contained metal bits have reported slight discomfort to severe pain during an MRI scan. <br /><br />Today, it is not really an issue, but the concern is still there.Brett Minorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13181569922751252054noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1688123750377283575.post-81665090108888772702012-07-27T21:37:26.837-06:002012-07-27T21:37:26.837-06:00If you have got superpowers, it won't be nearl...If you have got superpowers, it won't be nearly as cool as hulk-power.
