Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is a modern non-invasive diagnostic imaging technique that allows a detailed look into the internal structures of the body. Using a strong magnetic field and radio waves, MRI creates detailed images of organs and tissues that are used to diagnose and monitor various health conditions.
An MRI uses a strong magnetic field and radio waves to create detailed images of the body’s internal organs and structures. When a patient enters an MRI machine, the magnetic field affects the hydrogen atoms in the body. These atoms emit signals that are picked up and processed into images. Unlike X-rays and CT, MRI does not use ionizing radiation, which makes the method safer for repeated use.
