Burns are an unexpected adverse event of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). We present an interesting case of a patient who underwent an MRI and suffered a second degree burn to their inner thighs thought to be caused by the creation of a “tissue-loop.” It is important that clinicians and technicians...

description Burns are an unexpected adverse event of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). We present an interesting case of a patient who underwent an MRI and suffered a second degree burn to their inner thighs thought to be caused by the creation of a “tissue-loop.” It is important that clinicians and technicians are aware of this adverse event to help prevent further occurrences in this commonly used imaging modality.
