The bigger ones just barely!. They are like ball point pen springs, from about the same size, to tiny ones the width of a pencil lead and under 1/2 inch long!. I have two of those!. They show up in magnificaton!. There may be others with a different form that are more easily seen!.
I have 7 twist ties that they used to hold my chest shut after bypass surgery!. They really stand out in an X-ray!. Much bigger wire than for fruit bags at the store!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
