MRI (Magnetic Resonance Imaging)
MRI (Magnetic Resonance Imaging): Detailed Information
MRI (Magnetic Resonance Imaging) is a non-invasive imaging technique that uses a powerful magnetic field, radio waves, and a computer to create highly detailed images of the body’s organs, tissues, and structures. Unlike X-rays or CT scans, MRI does not use ionizing radiation, making it a safer option for certain patients and conditions.
How It Works:
- – MRI machines use a strong magnetic field to align the hydrogen atoms in the body.
- – Radio waves are then used to disturb this alignment temporarily.
- – When the atoms return to their original state, they emit signals that are captured by the MRI machine to produce detailed images of the body’s internal structures.

- Cardiac MRI
- Abdominal MRI
- Musculoskeletal MRI
- Pelvic MRI
- Breast MRI
- Functional MRI (fMRI)
- MR Angiography (MRA)
- MR Enterography

Procedure Preparation:
Pre Procedure
- Wear loose, comfortable clothing or a provided gown.
- Remove all metal objects, including jewelry, watches, or hearing aids.
- Inform the technologist if you have any metal implants (e.g., pacemakers, artificial joints).
- Some MRIs may require fasting or drinking a contrast agent.
During the Scan:
- The patient lies on a motorized table that slides into the MRI scanner.
- The machine produces loud tapping or thumping sounds; earplugs or headphones are provided for comfort.
- The patient must remain still to ensure clear images.
- Some MRIs may involve contrast agents administered via an IV for enhanced clarity.
After the Scan:
- No recovery time is needed unless contrast dye was used, in which case drinking fluids is recommended to help flush it out.
