MRI…What is it?
Good day everyone and thanks for attending the presentation on MRI scanners. I will be explaining how these equipment work and their significance in medical imaging. I will also highlight some technical aspects of this amazing technology. I will also mention some innovations that improve the efficiency and the information gained in MRI scanning.
Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) is a medical imaging methodology that produces recordings of the inside of the human body. It creates detailed pictures of the parts of the body by the use of magnetic fields and radiowaves. Thus, it is non-invasive and free of any radiation exposure. This is the reason why MRI is a preferred method over others such as X-rays or CT scans relying on radiation.

Overview | Working of MRI
An MRI entails the action of hydrogen atoms, which predominantly exist in the body due to water and fat. A powerful magnetic field is produced by MRI machines in order to focus the protons. A transverse wave or radiofrequency wave is passed through the body during which the individual ions lose alignment. Signals are given off as the protons realign. These signals are collected and converted into images by the machine showing the internal structures of the body in details.

Scanning process in MRI
It is mandatory for patients to take off all metallic items such as jewelry or even hearing aids prior to an MRI scan, because metals tend to distort the magnetic field. The patient then lies on a tray that is inserted into the machine which is a huge cylindrical structure known as an MRI scanner. Typically the process takes about 30 to 60 minutes, and it is very important for the subject to be as motionless as possible during this time because otherwise the images...
