A single use of an MRI doesn't use 2000 liters, that is the upper end of a hospitals ENTIRE supply of helium. On average an MRI users 70 Liters per MONTH of operation. You're literally just spewing bullshit at this point, have a fun time being completely misinformed on things that upset you greatly, I'm going to go play games

You are right. In a sense, they have to reclaim the helium. It takes 2,000L to run it, they reclaim it compress/cool then reuse it. That 70 L/month is what they loose after use.

Do some reading before being an ass
