Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI)

WHAT IS MAGNETIC RESONANCE IMAGING (MRI)?

  • An advanced technique where a powerful magnet, radiofrequency pulses and computers are used to produce detailed pictures of organs, soft tissues and virtually all internal body structures.
  • It does not use ionising radiation.
  • Due to the strength of the magnetic field, certain devices such as cardiac pacemakers, automatic internal defibrillators and other medical implanted devices may prohibit you from having a MRI.  Please notify the radiographer of any implanted devices in your body before you enter the MRI room.
