CrowdStrike's software should not be installed on an MRI machine, per CrowdStrike's own guidance:

"Neither the offerings nor crowdstrike tools are for use in the operation of [...] direct or indirect life-support systems [...] or any application or installation where failure could result in death, severe physical injury, or property damage."

If the PC controlling an MRI crashes nothing will happen to the instrument itself. The data might be lost and you can't continue using the MRI until this is fixed, but not more. This would not violate these guidelines.
