That is so fake. No way those cabinets were installed with that MRI machine active. IF there really are cabinets, they cannot any steel fasteners, staples, etc. If they were installed with that equipment, someone turned the machine on before the equipment was removed from the room. In that case, not the cabinet installers fault.

I have had a few MRI's. The rooms I have been in do not even have cabinets, or counter tops. There is nothing in the room but the machine. No chairs, NOTHING else. Only the machine.

I've worked in construction for 20 years and... I have to disagree. I would tell the guys DO NOT BRING ANYTHING METAL 35 times over the course of 2 days before the job, and on day 1 I would expect to see the entire crew stuck to the MRI machine flailing around like turtles on their backs. Possibly on the second day too because I'm sure at least half of them wouldn't learn the first time.

That make me curious, what kind of work were they doing in the MRI room? Why would any one in the hospital allow them access to that room while the machine is powered up?

I've worked in a small MRI room. The operators had a rope out area that you do not go past. And watched us like a hawk. Drywall work. Agree that there were no cabinets or anything else in this room. It was a research laboratory in Ottawa. The Central Experimental Farm. Kind of cool that what is now kind of the centre of Ottawa there is still a good chuck of farmland. The rest the developers covered with houses and streets.

As for idiot construction workers. I sadly need to agree. I worked in the MRI room because my ears work. And I am man enough to listen to others!!!!! It's the overgrown children that have trouble listening in my opinion.
