There is a pretty effective pesticide treatment that's injected into the tree every few years to the tune of a few hundred dollars. Much cheaper than cutting a large one down with the added benefit of getting to keep a mature tree. It&

People with metal implants and bullets can often still have MRIs with some additional screening/safety measures. There may be advantages to operating under live MRI guidance but I'm not aware of any research on that. Even with low
