Magnetic resonance imaging

ID: magnetic-resonance-imaging

Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) is a medical imaging technique used to visualize detailed internal structures of the body. It employs strong magnetic fields, radio waves, and a computer to produce images of organs, soft tissues, bones, and other internal body structures. Key features of MRI include: 1. **Non-Invasive**: MRI is a non-invasive procedure that does not involve ionizing radiation, making it safer compared to techniques like X-rays or CT scans.
