Copper and nickle are magnetic?

[-] punkwalrus@lemmy.world 4 points 2 years ago

I have shrapnel in my leg, it's copper and brass, and I have had MRIs with no ill effects. Fucks up some CAT scans and xrays, but only if they are scanning that leg. It's so small, though, that modern metal detectors don't register it anymore.
