《English Translation》
优子: Teacher Liu, I saw a news story saying a girl had an MRI scan and the machine went black because she was wearing makeup. Is that true?
刘娜: Yes, it’s true. Some cosmetics contain metal components, which can interfere with MRI scans.
优子: I used to think light makeup was fine, and even more polite that way.
刘娜: A lot of people think that, but MRI machines are very sensitive to metal, so wearing makeup can actually be unsafe.
优子: So even just foundation or lipstick isn’t okay?
刘娜: It’s best to remove everything. Glitter, eyeshadow, and setting spray need extra caution.
优子: I see—this is really informative. Health checks are more important than looking good.
刘娜: Exactly. In China people often say ‘health comes first.’ Keeping it simple and clean before an exam is being responsible to yourself.
