Love the technology and what it can do. However I found I have claustrophobia after being in the tube for about 5 minutes.

Same. claustrophobia was actually a question on the pre visit questionnaire.. and I said no.. I lasted about 5 minutes before I started to panic and freak out.. The operator basically ignored my request to be removed from the machine, and told me just a few minutes more...which were unbearable...
If I ever have to have another MRI, I'm doing the open standup MRI...
It was odd discovering this fear in this fashion... I climb all over some of the tallest suspension bridges without a thought.. And braking to enter a turn at 160... bring it on..
Enclosed spaces....just no
