If you need to ask...

No shit, I once had the chance to accompany a patient to an large aninmal hospital for an MRI.

The problem: It was so far away that the patient needed to be airlifted. Which was far beyond the capacity of regular HEMS. So they called in the military and they send a fucking CH-53 cargo helicopter. These things are huge and loud. But cool.

That was one interesting ride. Somewhat embarrassing for the patient (who was not in on weight level due to simply eating too much - patient had a massive and life altering orphan hormonal disease) but patient kept somewhat good spirits and the volunteer fire brigade did a good job blocking the view.

Nowadays human medicine has improved - you can now simply use an open MRI with specialised gurneys. They usually can take more than 400kg, sometimes 500kg.

I learned this from Scrubs

I had a patient tell me he had to go to a zoo for an MRI. I thought it was a self deprecating joke but he was serious.

Stopped asking those pesky questions about what?!?
