• MRI scans are the images of the organs and
  structures of the human body that is taken with
  the help of an MRI scanner using the technique of
  magnetic resonance imaging. This particular scan
  shows bones, tissues, muscles and nerves in much

• The MRI scans are free from any kind of
  harmful radiations. Basically, magnetic and radio
  waves are used to generate the MRI scans of the
  body. The important thing to note about MRI scan
  is that it attracts metal objects. So, it is not
  a suitable scanning procedure for the patients
  who have metal implants in the body. The metal
  implants may include metal rods, pins in the
  bones, pacemaker, and metal prosthetic valves in
  the heart or a metallic body in the eye or ear.

  to remove all the metal accessories from their
  body and clothing before going for MRI scan. The
  MRI scan does not take long and it does not
  require the patient to stay whole night in the
  hospital. No anesthesia is requires for the scan.
  The best thing is that the patients can easily
  perform their normal activities after the scan is
  done.

• When the patient is called for the MRI scan,
  the patient is asked to lie down on a table that
  slides into the MRI scanner. The technician
  stands behind the window in another room and can
  even hear the test being performed. MRI is a
  costly procedure when compared with an X-ray or
  CT scanning procedures. Another great advantage
  of MRI scan is that is gets completed in short
  span of time and does not have any side effects
  as well.
