Magnetic Resonance Imaging

More information in Books or onNLM PubMed
Definition: Non-invasive method of demonstrating internal anatomy based on the principle that atomic nuclei in a strong magnetic field absorb pulses of radiofrequency energy and emit them as radiowaves which can be reconstructed into computerized images. The concept includes proton spin tomographic techniques.  GEN or unspecified; prefer specifics; do not confuse with MAGNETIC RESONANCE SPECTROSCOPY: check text; DF: MRI
