>        So, can a person with tattoos get an MRI safely? 

    Yes you can. 

    If there are traces of metal in the tattoo, which it seems is
    occasionally so in black or dark pigments, the tattoo sill get very
    slightly warmer but nothing more than that. 

    I saw this demonstrated on the Discovery channel a few months ago.
