MRI Background info Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) otherwise known as Magnetic resonance tomography (1) is a scan that uses a magnetic field‚ radio wave‚ and computer‚ to produce an image of an individual internal structure (Anatomy) (2). The body contains more than 50% of water. MRI uses super strong Magnetic field to align hydrogen nuclei or protons found in water (H2O) all over the body (1‚3‚ &‚ 4). When a person is placed into the scanning machine hydrogen nuclei or protons align

Many recent imaging modalities in medicine‚ such as magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)‚ computed tomography (CT)‚ digital mammography also generate images directly in digital form. Diagnostic imaging is an invaluable tool in medicine today. These imaging modalities provide an effective means for non-invasive mapping of the anatomy of a subject. These technologies have greatly increased knowledge of normal and diseased anatomy for medical research and are a critical component
