Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI)

Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI)

Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) is a medical imaging technology that uses radio waves and a magnetic field to create detailed images of organs and tissues. MRI has proven to be highly effective in diagnosing a number of conditions by showing the difference between normal and diseased soft tissues of the body.

MRI is often used to evaluate:
  • Blood vessels
  • Abnormal tissue
  • Breasts
  • Bones and joints
  • Organs in the pelvis, chest and abdomen (heart, liver, kidney, spleen)
  • Spinal injuries
  • Tendon and ligament tears
