MRI, or Magnetic Resonance Imaging, utilizes strong magnetic fields and radiofrequency electromagnetic waves to produce detailed images of the body's internal structures. The MRI machine generates a strong magnetic field that aligns the hydrogen nuclei in the body, and then radiofrequency pulses are applied to disturb this alignment. When the radiofrequency is turned off, the hydrogen nuclei return to their original alignment, emitting signals that are detected and translated into images. Thus, MRI exploits the principles of electromagnetic waves to visualize soft tissues in a non-invasive manner.
The waves which have both properties as that of electricity & magnet.
eletromagnetic waves
No, eletromagnetic waves propagate in two planes (eletro-magnetic) and can propagate in a vacuum. Water waves, on the other hand, are dependant on matter to transfer energy, making it a mechanical wave, not an eletromagnetic one.
MRI machines use radio waves to magnetize the hydrogen atoms in the body. When the radio waves are turned off, the hydrogen atoms release energy in the form of radio waves that are detected by the MRI machine to create an image of the internal structures of the body.
Electromagnetic energy is used for a wide range of applications, including communication (radio waves, microwaves), medical imaging (X-rays, MRI), heating (microwaves), and electricity generation (solar panels, wind turbines).
An MRI uses radio waves, which are a form of electromagnetic radiation. These radio waves are directed towards the body to create images of internal structures based on how different tissues react to the waves.

No. Put simply, an MRI scanner utilised radio waves and a magnetic field. Without a magnet, there is no magnetic resonance imaging (MRI).
A MRI involves laying still on a table so that the MRI machine can take images of inside the body. The images are a result of a combination of magnetic and radio waves that the machine produces. Because of the radio and magnetic waves, no radiation (such as x-rays) are exposed to the individual.
MRI uses radiofrequency electromagnetic waves to create detailed images of the body's internal structures.
MRI, or magnetic resonance imaging, uses radio waves to create detailed images of the inside of the body. During an MRI scan, the body is exposed to a strong magnetic field, which causes the hydrogen atoms in the body to align in a certain way. Radio waves are then used to disrupt this alignment, causing the atoms to emit signals that are picked up by the MRI machine and converted into detailed images.
MRI uses magnetic fields and radio waves to measures how much water is in different tissues of the body, maps the location of the water and then uses this information to generate a detailed image.
