We do a lot of portable mobile X rays

The only protection is we stand 6-7 feet back

Usually in the same room or in the hall but we have no walls to hide behind

No... the amount of radiation that you could ever be in contact with by mistake at a single time with an X-ray is less than what you would get walking outside in the sunshine...
Now in an MRI room you do have to be very careful...

Only if he has a magnet, MRI does not use radiation.

Only if he has a magnet, MRI does not use radiation.

MRI rooms have led doors and no one can be in the room who is not in the tube...
MRI rooms can be dangerous due to the powerful magnetic field, which can attract ferromagnetic objects, turning them into projectiles and causing serious injury. Other potential dangers include the risk of burns from RF energy, noise-induced hearing loss, and adverse reactions to contrast agents.
