Magnetic Resonance Imaging

Magnetic resonance imaging is used in radiology to form pictures to analyse the biological processes of the body in both health and disease. MRI scanners use strong magnetic fields, radio waves to produce images of the body. MRI does not use x-rays or ionizing radiations. MRI may still be seen as a better choice than CT scan. MRI is usually used in hospitals and clinics for medical diagnosis, staging, without using radiations. , MRI scans usually take longer and louder, and they typically need the subject to enter a narrow confining tube. In tally, people with some medical implants or other non-removable metal inside the body may be unable to undergo an MRI examination safely.
