MRItageléses

MRItageléses is a term that emerged in popular culture, particularly within online communities, to describe a perceived phenomenon related to Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) scans. It is not a recognized medical or scientific term. The concept generally refers to the idea that individuals may experience unusual or even hallucinatory sensations or vivid dream-like states during an MRI session.

These reported experiences often include intense colors, abstract imagery, or narratives that seem to unfold during the scan. Some individuals describe feeling as though they are traveling or undergoing a profound personal journey. The enclosed, noisy, and repetitive nature of the MRI machine, combined with the sustained period of lying still, is often cited as a potential contributing factor to these subjective experiences.

While anecdotal accounts of MRItageléses are prevalent on social media and forums, there is no scientific consensus or empirical evidence to validate it as a distinct neurological or psychological event. Medical professionals typically attribute such sensations to the combination of sensory input (noise, confinement), altered states of consciousness due to rest or fatigue, and the brain's natural tendency to create meaning from sensory information. Some researchers suggest that the intense auditory stimuli from the MRI scanner might trigger unusual neural activity, leading to these perceived altered states. However, further scientific investigation is needed to fully understand the reported subjective experiences associated with MRI scans.
