magnet resonance imaging (MRI)
Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) is a medical imaging technique that uses strong magnets and radio waves to create detailed images of the inside of the body. The magnetic field aligns hydrogen atoms in the body's tissues. When radio waves are applied, these atoms produce signals that are detected and converted into images by a computer. MRI is particularly useful for examining soft tissues like the brain, muscles, and organs, providing high-resolution images without any ionizing radiation. It helps doctors diagnose and monitor various medical conditions with precision.
