title: [MRI: projectiles, bullets and counter-indications].
abstract: The authors present an overview of contraindications of MRI studies with bullets and projectiles. All shell splinters are ferromagnetic. There is a very large variety of bullets and their study cannot be exhaustive. In addition, same bullets of different series can be or not ferro-magnetic. Therefore, all projectiles must be considered as ferromagnetic until evidence of the contrary is found.
