MRI (Magnetic Resonance Imaging) is an advanced, non-invasive diagnostic imaging technique that uses powerful magnets, radio waves, and a computer to create detailed images of the internal structures of the body. Unlike X-rays or CT scans, MRI does not use ionizing radiation, making it a safer option for long-term imaging needs. It is particularly effective for visualizing soft tissues, such as the brain, spinal cord, joints, muscles, and organs, as well as detecting abnormalities like tumors, inflammation, or injuries.

During the procedure, the patient lies on a motorized table that slides into a cylindrical scanner. The strong magnetic field and radio waves interact with hydrogen atoms in the body to produce precise, high-resolution images. Specialized MRI techniques, such as contrast-enhanced MRI, functional MRI (fMRI), and cardiac MRI, allow for even more detailed evaluations. MRI is widely used in neurology, orthopedics, cardiology, and oncology for diagnosis and treatment planning. Though the process is painless, patients with claustrophobia or metal implants should inform their healthcare provider to ensure safety and comfort during the scan.
