MRI Principles
MRI uses magnetic fields and radio waves to generate images. These signals reflect tissue composition. Students learn how contrast arises in MRI.
Signal Behavior
Different tissues produce different signal intensities. Adjusting parameters changes image appearance. Understanding these behaviors supports accurate interpretation.
Clinical Applications
MRI excels at soft tissue imaging. It is widely used in neurology, orthopedics, and cardiology. Students explore common MRI protocols.
Safety Considerations
MRI safety requires strict screening. Metal objects pose risks in magnetic environments. Students must understand safety protocols.
