    Weren’t they still doing surgeries at al-Shifa up until the power went out? I’d imagine that an MRI might be useful for diagnosing issues prior to surgery…

      Beats me. I’m just a chemist who managed my facility’s NMR magnets (built like MRIs but with different electronics for chemical analysis) for a few years. We had to pull some stunts to keep those magnets alive sometimes, but it was always a matter of how soon, not if, a shipment of cryogens would arrive. Can’t imagine trying to keep MRIs from quenching in a war zone.
