MRIskannausta
MRIskannausta, also known as magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), is a non-invasive medical imaging technique used to create detailed images of the internal organs and structures of the body. It utilizes strong magnetic fields and radio waves to generate these images, without the use of ionizing radiation like X-rays. The process involves placing the patient within a large, powerful magnet, where radio waves are then pulsed through the body. Different tissues respond to these radio waves in distinct ways, and these responses are detected by a scanner. A computer then processes this information to construct cross-sectional images.
MRI is particularly useful for visualizing soft tissues such as the brain, muscles, ligaments, and tendons,
