Our facility has been in the process of switching from the Halyard N95 mask (the duckbill) to the 3M Aura and VFlex.  We are very pleased with the new product, but concern has been raised about the presence of the staples, which are magnetic.  How are other facilities that use the 3M masks deal with issues of use around MRI machines?  Thanks so much for your help.  Tim
