The lawyer allegedly brought in a concealed weapon even though he was asked to remove all metallic objects before entering the room with a magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) machine.
Titanium is very minimally interactive. It is still affected by Lenz’s Law, which means it does interact with magnetic fields (a current is induced), but you’re right that the effect is minimal enough so as to be disregarded.
You can induce a magnetic field in a nonferromagnetic metal by exposing it to an oscillating magnetic field… I would imagine an MRI would qualify.
Not applicable to this case I suspect, but relevant to your question.
Maybe it depends on the metal, but I have titanium artificial disks in the base of my back that are safe to put through an MRI.
