Magnetic resonance imaging (tomography from ancient Greek τομή/tome (German: Schnitt) and γράφειν/graphein (German: schreiben), abbreviated to MRI, is an imaging procedure used in medical diagnostics. It is used to visualise the structure and function of tissues and organs in the body and is completely painless.
With the help of MRI in Frankfurt, cross-sectional images of the human body can be produced, allowing the organs and many pathological organ changes to be assessed. Neither X-rays nor ionising radiation are used. Rays (Radioactivity) is used. Images are generated exclusively with the aid of magnetic fields and radio waves.
Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) has a very high value for modern medical diagnostic imaging: this procedure allows anatomical structures such as bones, organs or blood vessels to be analysed in detail. analysed can be detected. Injuries or other changes can be localised precisely and diseases can be detected at an early stage.
