There are signs and flashing lights everywhere when an MRI is energized.

A 61-year-old man who suffered critical injuries after being pulled into
an MRI machine while wearing a metal chain has died, police said Friday.
The incident occurred Wednesday afternoon at a medical building in
Westbury, New York, according to the Nassau County Police Department.
Officers responded to Nassau Open MRI following a 911 call and were
informed that the man "entered an unauthorized Magnetic Resonance
Imaging (MRI) room while the scan was in progress," the police
department said in a statement.
"The male victim was wearing a large metallic chain around his neck
causing him to be drawn into the machine which resulted in a medical
episode," police said.
The man, whose name has not been released, was transported to a local
hospital in critical condition, police said.
He has since succumbed to his injuries and was pronounced dead Thursday afternoon, police said.
The investigation is ongoing, police said.
MRI machines use a strong magnetic field in producing detailed images.
Patients are advised to remove jewelry and other metal objects prior to
getting the scan.
Nassau Open MRI, which has several locations, offers both open and
closed scans, according to its website.
ABC News was unable to reach the Westbury location for comment. The
company declined to comment to ABC New York station WABC.
