Just shut your eyes, best thing I found with it as I get a bit claustrophobic. Seeing the tube so close is what starts getting to me as well.Not accurate.
I didn't even know I was claustrophobic until I had an MRI. Being stuck in the tube without being able to move, can't see anything but the wall of the tube 2 inches from your face. It's as close to being buried alive I've ever experienced outside of my worst nightmares.
It's not a fun experience.
I've had a few MRI's over the years, worst 1 was for my shoulder when I was at my heaviest (140kg), they couldn't fit both shoulders in the tube so strapped my good arm up above my head and then wedged me into the tube to scan the other shoulder..... That was a special kind of fucked.
