Answer : MRI
Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is a three-dimensional diagnostic imaging technique used to visualize organs and structures inside the body without the need for X-rays or other radiation. MRI is valuable for providing detailed anatomical images and can reveal minute changes that occur over time. It can be used to detect structural abnormalities that appear in the course of a disease as well as how these abnormalities affect subsequent development and how their progression correlates with mental and emotional aspects of a disorder. Since MRI poorly visualizes bone, excellent images of the intracranial and intraspinal contents are produced.
During an MRI procedure, the patient lies inside a massive hollow cylindrical magnet and is exposed to a powerful steady magnetic field. Different atoms in the portion of the body being scanned resonate to different frequencies of magnetic fields. MRI is used primarily to detect the oscillations of hydrogen atoms, which contain a proton nucleus that spins and thus can be thought of as possessing a small magnetic field. In MRI a background magnetic field lines up all the hydrogen atoms in the tissue being imaged. A second magnetic field, oriented differently from the background field, is turned on and off many times per second; at certain pulse rates, the hydrogen atoms resonate and line up with this second field. When the second field is turned off, the atoms that were lined up with it swing back to align with the background field. As they swing back, they create a signal that can be picked up and converted into an image.
