What kind of release (if any) will one need in case of using MRI or x-ray images of herself or himself in stock footages of photos? Technically it's quete a challenge to be an author of them

I've got a couple of medical images like that - no release. I can't see how anybody could claim to recognise their skeleton or what their innards look like in an ultrasound scan.

Wouldn't the creator of those x-ray images have copyright over them?

Precisely. That would be the photographer.

You are right but following this logic we would need property release for every pizza or chair on the set

Not at all. The x-ray is a photograph.

Following YOUR logic you could take a picture of any photograph out there and sell as your own.

I have a fair amount but I worked in Radiology and created my own. That being said I have no problems
with people using anatomy images. I say give it a go.

xray's and mri's are not creative works, and cannot be copyrighted.

They might be protected by some sort of health privacy laws, so I would not be surprised if a stock rejected them.
