I've done research and have determined that 3M Peltor X5A are probably the best earmuffs to get. I wanted name brand, high dB rating, and soft...
People who've researched this all seem to say the same thing. Only go for Canon/Toshiba as they have patents on their hardware and software...
For brain MRI, I doubt you'll be able to wear a headset. Though be sure to ask. I'd at least get high rated foam earplugs and the Mack's silicone...
I'd be getting an MRI of the thoracic spine, which I've had before and I think it goes for an hour. One problem with the foam earplugs is they can...
I see you used to use the Mack's Ultra Soft, but it appears now you are using earSoft FX? Just curious why the change? Or do you just buy whatever...
When you did your thoracic spine MRI in the Canon Orian 1.5T MRI machine, did they put your head in a coil? If so, did your earmuffs fit inside...
Part of the reason I'm nervous is because I have a lot of health problems, like a fractured back and bulging discs going into my spinal cord...

10 at a time I'd guess would be a waste of time, as I go to the doctor once every 6 months to get prescription refills.
What medications are similar to Xanax that people take? I'm curious because I'm all the time being electrocuted as my muscles constantly vibrate...
I don't get how people are getting things like Xanax. What doctor do people get those meds from? I've not been able to get any of that and I have...
Are there any good neurologists in Tennessee? Not just strictly tinnitus, but general neurology?
They have three different Pro-Ears. A regular one, one that is more slim, but offers less protection, and one even smaller for children or small...
What are you looking at? Laser or electric drill? Are there any other options? I broke a tooth that needs to get filled, but don't want some...

Is anyone familiar with the "Toshiba Vantage Excelart AGV" MRI machine? My state put out an updated list of MRI locations in my state. And there...
What "very small MRI headsets" are you referring to? Can you post a website and brands? Thanks.
No, I haven't gotten the MRI yet. I do have some locations in my state that have Canon/Toshiba MRI machines. They all are the 1.5T Vantage. And...
I've read 3T is louder than 1.5T weighted. They say Canon/Toshiba machines have a vacuum chamber to make them quieter than any other brand. I...
Yeah, though there are some Canon MRIs in my state. Which are supposed to be quieter than other MRI machines. I've read it doesn't go louder than...
Well, I'm going to have to get dental work done at some point. So I guess I'm screwed either way. Though it seems like things may be okay in an...
I called around and did talk to a lady at a place that had a Canon MRI machine. And she ended up calling Canon and found that there were certain...
I'm needing to get an MRI of my thoracic spine. And I was looking at getting it at a Canon MRI machine. I have never done a Canon MRI before. I...
I really wish the techs who have these Canon MRI machines could tell me if they also have the additional software package that makes them even...

I've looked around, but it seems those Bluetooth earmuffs are hit and miss. And they only have a 24 or 26 dB NRR rating. So I think what I'd do is...
What make/model MRI did you use for your brain scan? Maybe get some earwax remover? They've got different things out there. They have some liquid...
My understanding from my research is you should avoid GE MRI machines because they aren't really as quiet as they have advertised. My...
My understanding is that Canon bought Toshiba several years ago. Though I have no idea which company came up with the hardware that put a vacuum...
I don't think I buy that calculation. I've done tests where I have earplugs in, and then I put -33 dB earmuffs on top. And there's more than 5 dB...
Well, I need a thoracic MRI. And apparently my luck is that they design these machines to where your head is put in a cradle or whatever for a...
The only Canon MRI machines I can find in my state are the Canon/Toshiba "Titan". I had been looking maybe the next state over for a newer quieter...
Thanks. I wanted to double check as this is the only place I heard of those two MRI machines being the same. I'll have to see if I can call Canon...

I don't know which is quieter. I haven't had an MRI since I developed my tinnitus.
What was the MRI machine's make and model that you had done recently?
Okay, this is the first I've heard of this. I'm aware of the "Pianissimo" in Canon/Toshiba MRI machines that reduce noise via hard ware putting...
Yeah, everyone reacts differently. Also, the newer strains seem to not be as bad or severe as the original strain. From reading media reports.
I'd also like to know if the scan times are the same for both machines, or does one take longer than the other when doing comparable scans on the...
There are some reports that natural immunity may reduce quicker than initially thought, or that maybe past infection doesn't give as much immunity...
From articles I'm reading, it seems like whatever vaccine they come out with, that it will already be outdated as they are working from older...
Okay, thanks. Looks like I'll have to do more research as I like the idea of an ultrasonic cleaner cleaning my teeth as I've been bad about not...
I'm really interested in this too. As I'm really F'd. F'd really good. I had a cleaning recently with some X-rays. Looks like a root canal and a...
