What Should Patients Tell the MRI Team About an Implant?

I have an older surgical implant and may need an MRI. I don’t have the implant card anymore, and I’m not sure what details the imaging team will need before deciding whether the scan can go ahead.

For anyone who has been through this, what information did the clinic ask you to provide? I’m wondering whether the implant’s exact make and model matters, and whether it’s best to contact the surgeon’s office before the appointment. I’ll follow the imaging team’s guidance, but would like to know what to have ready when I call.
