Are you strictly speaking of the CT technology or generally of the technology using magnets to divert radiation?
CT is still radiation, the magnet is creating a static field, IIRC, and only acts to divert the stream of radiation into a defined image plane.
The magnetic field itself is not very harmful, but can pull out iron particles from your blood giving a metallic taste and other minor side effects.
Because the field is not pulsed, it does not induce any current in your body.
The radiation source in CT will be what is bad for you, and it is like any other x-ray or imaging technology.
Any radiation penetrating the body with enough energy and sufficient can cause damage to cell DNA, cause mutations, or burns if it is intense enough.
It is also dependent on frequency, long wave lengths are too long to excite the tiny particles in your body and penetrate everything without much effect.
It gets more problematic the shorter the wavelength is, but it is not a linear relationship, where daylight for example is not exhibiting these characteristics, except UV being ionizing to a limited extent, but blocked by your skin.
It is much safer than conventional, old school X-ray.
If there is something to be concerned about it is all this wireless technology that just grows exponentially.
Telecom technology going into the microwave spectrum now.
Everything gets connected.
We get the lovely 5G access points everywhere, because the range is shorter.
This is the main concern with 5G.
Because before the lower frequency bands would have a much greater range, require less antenna and be placed further away from you.
Now we have these intense points of EMF radiation being placed near the ground, which acts as a mirror causing a 6db gain in power.
Also 5G frequencies reflect against buildings and create echoes with modes and nodes, and can create hotspots that way too.
