Question

Full form of MRI is:
(A) Magnetic Resonance Imaging
(B) Magnetic Remote Imaging
(C) Mesomeri Remote Imaging
(D) None of these

Answer 1

Hint: We must have heard the term MRI scans from a doctor one time or the other. It is actually a scanning technique by which the image of the anatomy is formed. Like X-ray and CT scan this lets the doctor see the internal organs without the need of surgery.

Complete step by step solution:
MRI uses a strong magnetic field and radio waves to form detailed images of the internal organs and tissues within the body.
Since its invention, doctors and researchers continue to utilize MRI techniques to assist in medical procedures and research. The development of MRI has revolutionized modern medicine.
It is a non-invasive and painless procedure. The scanner is a tube like apparatus in which the whole body has to slide inside. It is used to detect anomalies of the brain or spinal cord and tumors, cysts, and other anomalies in various parts of the body.
The major components of an MRI scanner include a main magnet, which polarizes the sample, the coils for correcting shifts in the homogeneity of the main magnetic field, the gradient system used to localize the region to be scanned and the RF system, which excites the sample and detects the resulting the signal. The whole system is controlled by one or more computers.
Since it involves magnetic fields the full form is Magnetic Resonance Imaging.

Hence, the correct answer is Option (A) Magnetic Resonance Imaging.

Note: We must remember that unlike CT-Scan and X-ray, MRI does not use ionizing radiation. Thus, it is deemed much safer and considered to be a suitable alternative.
