MRI

Yes it can. This is because fMRI technology can be used to create images of oxygen use in various brain areas. It can be assumed that when an area is active, it consumes oxygen. Therefore, fMRI can identify whether or not a region is active or not during a process when it should be according to the norm.

For me, it took about five days. Though my doctor told me it could be anywhere from three days to two weeks. For me, it took about five days. Though my doctor told me it could be anywhere from three days to two weeks.

This is controversial as bullets can deflect and move in conventional 1.5T scanners. Research the various literature yourself at the NLM pubmed site (google it). There are reports of bullets migrating within the spinal canal, and reports of no adverse sequela to the patient with bullets in their canals undergoing mri with complete paralysis. Bullets near vessels are dangerous, as fragments can theoretically cause vascular injury (bleed!). In general, most radiologists favor not putting patients at risk when bullets are near the spinal cord or major blood vessels. There are always exceptional cases, dealt with on a case-by-case basis.

Usually around 35.00 to 40.00 per hour. Wages are about 10% higher if you work in a private imaging center than if you work at a hospital. Wages are also 10-25% higher if you have a Bachelors Degree in Diagnostic Imaging. MRI, Nuke Med, Radiation Therapy, and Ultrasound all pay around the same but vary between location and employers, but CT Techs usually make about 5.00 an hour less than the others and rad-techs about 15.00 an hour less than the others.

In order to create clear and effective imaging of soft tissue with a high level of detail and precision, with minimal radiological harm to the patient.

my grandpa had that done.he said its a simple thing to have done.what they will do is haveyou put earplugs in and tape your ears and depending on what part they are looking at is how far you will go inthemachine.like if its your head they are looking at you will go in the machine up to your chest.they give you a button to push if you get nervous.the machine makes loud noises and you have tostay still the whole time.thats all it is.

i think radio if not x rays but im pretty sure its radio

When you're told that an MRI is "not remarkable" or "unremarkable" it usually means that they didn't find anything within the result. Where as if you were told it was "remarkable" it typically means that they found something in the area where they were looking.

it sort of looks like a giant polo but if you go on Google images it has lots of pictures of MRIs

Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), nuclear magnetic resonance imaging (NMRI), or magnetic resonance tomography (MRT) is amedical imaging technique used in radiology to visualize internal structures of the body in detail. MRI makes use of the property of nuclear magnetic resonance(NMR) to image nuclei of atoms inside the body. MRI can create more detailed images of the human body than are possible with X-rays.

CT is computed tomography and CAT scan is computed axial tomography.

A CT scan is a computer-assembled set of X-rays taken from different vantage points. The computer can create 3D models of whatever it images, but the nature of X-ray imaging is that it is more effective for denser tissues (bone), than soft-tissues (organs or blood). There are new CT techniques that can help image organs (the heart is of particular interest), but MRI is generally capable of imaging soft tissues with greater detail. MRI is more frequently used for neurological imaging, and can be used to do chemical analysis of tissues (spectroscopy) inside your body non-invasively.

Because they use very different means to image, both CT and MRI can 'miss' things that would better show up on the other modality.

Hypodensity indicates a decrease in density. Hypodensity on a CT scan can indicate damaged tissue, from trauma, illness, or birth defect.

As we know,Clarity of the image is decided by its Spatial Resolution but not by Pixel Resolution.

CT have high Spatial Resolution but MRI have comparable Spatial Resolution to CT&far better Contrast Resolution than CT-So,MRI is the BEST to demonstrate Anatomy,especially in parts containing more soft tissue[Eg:Brain]&CT is the BEST to demonstrate Bony Anatomy.

Yes they are.

Nearly all kinds of electromagnetic radiation are emitted during radioactive decay

MRI is Magnetic Resonance Imaging and a CAT is a computerized X Ray (Computer Assisted Tomography)

MRI will work fine in case of diagnosis of soft tissues and CT will work fine for bony structures and inner ear analysis.

Also MRI do not use any radiation it is based on magnetic effect so less side effects compared to CT which uses X- rays.

MRI is very much costlier compared to CT.

MRI is problematic in case if the patient is having some metallic implant, which will cause interference with the magnetic field.

In order to determine any hairline crack then MRI would be preferred compared to CT.

Both and neither. They each have areas of the body they are better at. Many DR's think the MRI is better because they think it is newer, but both machines have been around since the late 60's.

Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) is a non-invasive imaging technology that produces three dimensional detailed anatomical images.

In my experience, an MRI can cause more of a problem than a help. You have to be very careful on the type of shunt that you have. If it is a particular type( I think it is the Codmans) you can't have a MRI. The reason for this is that it changes the pressures.

The only reason that I know this, is that it has happened to me on a few times, before we figured out why the pressures were changing.

no

an MRI

Can anyone help answer this ? im wanting to go to school for MRI but wanna make sure the fact that I have metal plates in my face and head will not cause an issue.
