Occupations associated with increased risks for brain cancers include those involving exposure to chemical agents such as vinyl chloride and formaldehyde and physical agents such as ionizing radiation and electromagnetic fields (EMFs). Among the larger and more recent studies, Theriault et al. found an approximate 2-fold increase in brain cancer in the 10% of the workers with the highest magnetic field exposure but the result was not statistically significant. In a study of 140,000 electrical utility workers, Savitz and Loomis found an association between magnetic field exposure and brain cancer, but not leukemia.

I had a bad reaction to MRI. My leg was actually burned. Anyone else out there with similar adverse reaction to MRI's?
