What waves are used in MRI machine?
Both magnetic- and radio-waves.
What was used before the MRI was invented?
X Rays and Untra sound
What are 2 jobs that use magnets?
MRI Scanners that are used in the hospital i guess a medical technician
What are some ways electromagnetic waves are used?
communications - radio bands, TV bands, microwave bands, IR and visible light bandscooking - microwave band and IR bandmedical - radio band, IR band, x-ray bandsense of vision - visible light bandphotosynthesis - visible light bandetc.
What are the uses of a superconductor?
Superconductors have zero resistance, and are used in powerful magnets for MRI etc, and magnetic levitation.
What is a type of electromagnetic radiation used for medical images?
MRI uses radio waves; a CT scan uses x-rays.
An MRI is a type of?
An x-ray, its used to look at muscles
What wave is used in MRI machine?
i think radio if not x rays but im pretty sure its radio
How does does a pacemaker interacts with MRI?
Patients with cardiac pacemakers should not undergo a magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) procedure. Devices that emit electromagnetic waves (including magnets) may alter pacemaker programming or functioning.
What kind of electromagnetic radiation could be used to see a virus?
An electron microscope can be used to see a virus. MRI's now exist that can see inside viruses. If you visit Florida State University, they have one.
What type of medical imaging would best be used to diagnose epileptic seizures?
CAT scans and MRI scans are often used.
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.
When is a MRI used?
they are used when you are sick.
What type of scans give the most high quality images of the soft tissues of the brain?
MRI
Does Radiation therapy use gamma rays?
Gamma-rays have the smallest wavelengths and the most energy of any other wave in the electromagnetic spectrum. These waves are generated by radioactive atoms and in nuclear explosions. Gamma-rays can kill living cells, a fact which medicine uses to its advantage, using gamma-rays to kill cancerous cells.They have Dangerous effect so they are not used in MRI.Radio waves are used in MRI.
Is there raideaction in a mri?
If you mean "radiation" then the answer is yes. Electromagnetic radiation in the radiofrequency spectrum. Note that this differs from x rays in that it is not damaging to the tissues.
When should MRI's not be used?
MRI scanning should not be used when there is the potential for an interaction between the strong MRI magnetic field and metal objects that might be imbedded in a patient's body.
