MRI Safety

  Without the use of x-rays or any radiation, Magnetic Resonance Imaging / MRI allows for the detailed imaging of organs and tissues throughout the body. A large, round magnet surrounds a tube that houses an MRI-compatible screen. An MRI-compatible camera that may be fitted within the magnet is used to support the patient. The magnet's powerful magnetic field presents the hydrogen atoms' protons before being subjected to a radio wave beam. The resolution and detail of an MRI picture are fairly high, and it is capable of detecting minute alterations in bodily structures. To improve the accuracy of the pictures during several operations, contrast chemicals like gadolinium are employed. Risks associated with MRI Scan- 1.        If a ferromagnetic aneurysm clip is present, an MRI test will not be done since there is a possibility that the clip might move and seriously damage the patient. 2.         Patients that have metallic items in their bodies should inform their doctor or th

  MRI is used for pictures of your bones. It resembles a CT scan, also known as a CAT or computed tomography scan, which provides us with images of bones, muscles, and other body organs. It resembles a CT scan more than an X-ray. Since the technology used for the two scans is so similar, many individuals misunderstand the two procedures. Strong magnetic and radio waves are used in an MRI scan to view your body. It can view your bones, tissue, and organs. It produces intricate pictures of your body. It is a painless and secure technique for medical professionals to examine your body more closely. It helps in the diagnosis of many medical disorders. Images of your bones, organs, and other interior structures are recorded by an MRI-compatible camera and later produced by MRI and CT scans. Importance of a good quality MRI image- 1.       A magnetic field is used by an MRI to produce a picture. You are therefore not exposed to radiation. An MRI offers a more precise image of aberrant tissue
