  2. Magnetic resonance imaging - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnetic_resonance_imaging

    Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is a medical imaging technique used in radiology to form pictures of the anatomy and the physiological processes inside the body. MRI scanners use strong magnetic fields, magnetic field gradients, and radio waves to generate images of the organs in the body.

  3. Physics of magnetic resonance imaging - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Physics_of_magnetic_resonance_imaging

    Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is a medical imaging technique mostly used in radiology and nuclear medicine in order to investigate the anatomy and physiology of the body, and to detect pathologies including tumors, inflammation, neurological conditions such as stroke, disorders of muscles and joints, and abnormalities in the heart and blood ...

  4. History of magnetic resonance imaging - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_magnetic_resonance_imaging

    The history of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) includes the work of many researchers who contributed to the discovery of nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) and described the underlying physics of magnetic resonance imaging, starting early in the twentieth century.

    Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is a technique using magnets, radio waves, and a computer that produces images of soft tissues in the body, like muscles and organs.

  8. Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) - Johns Hopkins Medicine

    www.hopkinsmedicine.org/.../magnetic-resonance-imaging-mri

    Magnetic resonance imaging, or MRI, is a noninvasive medical imaging test that produces detailed images of almost every internal structure in the human body, including the organs, bones, muscles and blood vessels. MRI scanners create images of the body using a large magnet and radio waves.

  9. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) uses a powerful magnetic field, radio waves and a computer to produce detailed pictures of the body's internal structures that are clearer, more detailed and more likely in some instances to identify and accurately characterize disease than other imaging methods.
