@ivor @qotca @stux But not less noisy! Nobody warned me when I got into an mri machine for the first time, and the sound freaked me out.

@jeroen94704 @qotca @stux I've had numerous MRI and CTs. I always find the noises so fascinating. I never did find a good explanation of *what* the different sounds meant.

@ivor @jeroen94704 @qotca @stux

The CT machine noise should be apparent from the OP, but just to make it clear: You're hearing the giant motor that spins that thing around several times per second.

The MRI machine is a bit different. The noises it makes are literally the machine itself creaking in different ways to the different types of varying magnetic fields it uses to scan you.

@atatassault @ivor @qotca @stux β€œCreaking” doesn’t really do it justice IMHO πŸ˜€. A wooden ship under sail β€œcreaks”, or an old rocking chair. An MRI machine is more akin to sticking your head inside a large church bell and someone hitting it with a hammer
