Allow me to help you @Katedid! All Fitbit tracker products contain ferromagnetic materials that may be attracted to an MRI. For this reason we recommend that Fitbit trackers not be used in the vicinity of a MRI. 

Additionally, you may want to check this useful thread from @SteveH. 

 

Hope this helps. Robot Happy
