Professor Paul Workman, Chief Executive of The Institute of Cancer Research, London, said: "It's exciting that we've shown that a scan widely used to image the heart has the potential to greatly improve our understanding and treatment of cancer too. There is already a lot of experience in...
MRI scan to gauge heart attack riskdoi:10.1016/S0262-4079(09)60070-1MRI scans could soon reveal who is at risk, avoiding the use of invasive probes that can themselves trigger heart attacksLinda GeddesThe New Scientist
An MRI scan (magnetic resonance imaging) uses magnetism and radio frequencies to create images from within the body. It is a much different technology than X-ray or CT scan because no radiation that penetrates the body is used.
Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is a test that uses powerful magnets, radio waves, and a computer to make detailed pictures of the inside of your body. MRIs can diagnose a lot of health issues. (Photo credit: E+/Getty Images) MRI scan vs. CT Both tests let a doctor see inside your...

Due to the powerful magnetic force involved in producing an MRI scan, some individuals cannot have an MRI scan. These include individuals with:A cardiac (heart) pacemaker Certain clips in the brain from brain operations, i.e. aneurysm clips A cochlear (ear) implant A metallic foreign body in...
Heart problems, such as congenital heart disease Malformations of the blood vessels and inflammation How Should I Prepare for the MRI Procedure? When preparing for an MRI scan, it is important to know that you might be required to wear a gown during the examination. ...
Next, run a navigation scan to locate the mouse within the scanner. Confirm if some segment of the heart is visualized within all three planes, namely axial, sagittal, and coronal. Then, set the parameters for the FLASH sequence and select the external triggering to be on. On the monitoring...
The strong magnetic fields created during an MRI can cause heart pacemakers and other implants not to work as well. The magnets can also cause a piece of metal inside your body to move or shift. Alternative Names 别名 Nuclear magneti...
