None. By radiation, we're referring to ionizing radiation, or radiation with high enough energy to cause molecular damage, or possibly DNA damage. Radiation therapy, CT scan, Nuclear scans and X-rays all use ionizing radiation. MRI uses magnetic fields to induce electric currents, and employs radiofrequeny waves ( a type of electromagnetic radiation) that is not ionizing radiation. It is a form of energy, and thus metal objects, and even metal in tattoos can heat up and cause burns.

What are the health hazards of MRI scan?
MRI scans are one of the safest type of scan in modern medicine. The detailed results it gives without the danger of radiation is remarkable. There is one well known hazard however, that is that any metal in a persons body will damage the body due to the magnetic aspects of the MRI.

Is a MRI a treatment?
No. It is not a treatment it is a scan. An MRI is a Magnetic Resonance Imaging. MRI are used for imaging tissues.

No, an MRI does not emit radiation during the imaging process.
