There does seem to so question as to the effect of magnetic imaging.  Just
try and get an MRI on a pregnant women.  All the MRI facilities in my area
refuse to do one on a pregnant patient and the reason that was given was
that "they do not know the long term effects of the MRI."  There seems to
be a question as to gamma radiation being produced from the patient during
an MRI.
