Micah,
You need to consult with the MRI manufacturer, need to determine if a
super-conducting magnet also need to determine radio frequency shielding
requirements for the sprinkler pipe entering the MRI room (or any other opening
into the room) check to see if "mu" metal shielding is being
inkler Pipe from Magnetic Effects

They just want to make sure you are using non-ferrous piping and hanger
materials. It's always a bad day when they fire up the MRI and parts of the
fire protection system rip out of the ceiling and stick to the casing. I've
personally seen the fire alarm tech's screw driver gets sucked
