Author Urgent radiology question about gadolinium

I am scheduled to have an MRI with gadolinium injection today. I had a neck
surgery that was done from the front (anterior) and does have a tiatnium
plate fusion. I was told that titanium is mRI compatiable and that if the
surgery was done from the front ....t here was NO reason for the gadolinium.

If I need the gadolinium, my MRI will end at 7PM and I want the best way to
get that out of my system. Would it be flushing with water, hot air sauna,
or simple exercise that will cause body to heat up?

What do you think?

THANK YOU.
