ADVANTAGES OF MRI

MRI is non-invasive and does not use or involve radiation

MRI gives extremely clear, detailed images of soft-tissue structures

MRI contrasting agent is less likely to produce an allergic reaction

MRI can easily create hundreds of images

MRI can determine if a cancer has spread, and help determine the best treatment

MRI exams can cover large portions of the body

DISADVANTAGES OF MRI

MRI is expensive

MRI cannot always distinguish between malignant tumors or benign disease

An undetected metal implant in a patient’s body may be affected by the strong magnet of the MRI unit

There is a slight risk associated with using the sedation medication

There is a small chance that a patient could develop an allergic reaction

CONCLUSION

Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) system has been implemented using digital signal

processing (DSP) technology.

MRI has been shown to be an extremely effective instrument in the medical fields.

Learned a little bit about nowadays technologies to cure disease or illness.
