“Lego donates model MRI kits to hospitals to help children understand the procedure and reduce their anxiety.”
A Lego employee and physicians at a Danish hospital first developed a Lego model of a magnetic resonance imaging, or MRI, machine, in 2015 to help children understand the procedure and feel comfortable before their exams. After a successful pilot program, Lego said in 2022 that it would donate 600 model MRI scanners to hospitals worldwide.
