Hello Karina,
David Hoyt forwarded this to me because I just returned from maternity
leave. I have had two babies while working around our magnets, 7 T - 21 T.
When I became pregnant, I was asked to report to our health services
department. This visit served as an opportunity to ask a doctor about
concerns I had and to quiz them on any known problems (just like you
asked). Both times there was not any information or known bad effects of
the magnet or RF on the fetus.

Dear All,
I am Karina, I work with solid state NMR in a Bruker Aspect 2000, in
Cordoba, Argentina. I am pregnant (four weeks). I would like to know, if
there is information about bad effects of the magnetic field (7 T) or
the RF on a fetus. Is there any scientist information about that? thank
you very much for your attention
Karina
