Pediatric Magnetic Resonance Imaging

Pediatric Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) is a medical imaging technique used to create detailed pictures of children's internal body structures, such as the brain, spine, and organs. It uses a strong magnetic field and radio waves to generate images without using harmful radiation. Pediatric MRI is tailored for children, considering their size and comfort, often involving playful techniques to help them stay still during the scan. This non-invasive procedure helps doctors diagnose various conditions, monitor treatments, or assess developmental issues, ultimately improving the health and well-being of young patients.
