MRI, Magnetic Resonance Imaging, is one of the more advanced and reliable imaging techniques available. Unlike x-ray exams, MRI uses no radiation, opting instead to utilize a combination of radio waves, magnetic fields, and computers to produce detailed images of the body’s internal structures and soft tissue. Shared Medical supplies Kirby with a 1.5 Tesla magnet, which is the standard in MRI technology.
What to Expect During an MRI
An MRI can diagnose a number of health concerns. The clear pictures they create of both bone and soft tissue make them a convenient way to diagnose or rule out health conditions in one diagnostic test. They are currently the best method medical professionals have to diagnose brain tumors.
MRIs can diagnose:
