What is an open MRI?

Open MRI is an advanced form of the original magnetic resonance device (MRI). MRI scan, which has been used since the 80s, sends MRI scanning magnetic and radio waves through the human body up to 30,000 times greater than the power of the Earth's magnetic field. Regular MRI is a large closed magnet in which patients lie during MRI scan, but open MRI is a newer system that allows patients to stand in an open magnet during scanning.

Traditional MRI scanners give patients a small space for movement and comfort. Open MRI offers an alternative to often distress and loud MRI tests. Open MRI is a device that allows patients to stand freely when scanning. In open MRI devices, patients can watch TV and see their doctors and nurses. This option provides an attractive alternative to patients who are anxiety, claustrophobic, older or young, as well as for those who are obese.

has been developed open MRI so that the patient stands Lightly's cradle withThe MRI and the device similar to the shoulder monitors the patient's body from a short distance. In this way, the patient does not have to be inserted into a closed device of a similar coffin that resembles a traditional MRI scanner. Open MRI devices proved to be popular and effective for many patients.

MRI scan and its radio waves change the atoms of the body by relocating nuclei. When the body atoms move, they release new radio waves that are monitored by the scanner and made to the image on the computer. Scan MRI produces pictures of any tissue in the body. Tissue, which contains little hydrogen, such as bones, is considered a dark area and tissue, which has the most hydrogen atoms such as soft tissue, will show lighter.

By creating these detailed pictures of different body tissues, MRI scan is one of the best techniques to find tumors and for research and spinal cord. Thus, scan MRI has become one of the best techniques in determining andBnormalite in brain tissue. It is also excellent for finding heart defects and other potential complications of the body's internal organs.
