His wife told News 12 Long Island in a recorded interview that she was undergoing an MRI on her knee when she asked the technician to get her husband to help her get off the table. She said she called out to him.

Whole thing is heart breaking all around. I feel for the technician who made an honest but very serious mistake. And I'm sure the wife will spend her days regretting asking for help. Just a fucking tragic situation. :/

the technician who made an honest but very serious mistake.

You mean letting someone in while the machine was in operation?
