Depending upon which part of your body is being examined, the bangles or your arm may need to be repositioned to avoid interference.

Re: MRI scan
No, I was told they were silver at the time, or they may be some alloy containing silver, but something that can withstand the MRI.With the CT scan, all my trousers jeans have metal zips/buttons so I have to lower my trousers and they give you a blanket for modesty. One could just wear jogging/tracky bottoms but I don't have any.
