Re: Extreme fear of mri's

back in the mid 90s I had an MRI at a facility that was using virtual reality glasses in their MRIs, not just for claustrophic patients

The glasses allowed you to watch TV on a screen which was located parallel to the bottom of your feet outside the tube. I watched a cooking show on PBS and had no feeling I was inside a tube. Perhaps you should ask your facility if they have those virtual reality glasses left over from those days (most facilities stopped using them as they found there were fewer people who wanted them than they thought there might be) or seek out a facility that does!

Hope this helps!
