Explanation

An MRI examination is a type of medical test that doctors use to get detailed images of the inside of a person's body. It uses a large machine that creates a strong magnetic field and radio waves to generate these images. This test can help doctors see organs, tissues, and skeletal structures very clearly, which can help them diagnose a wide range of health conditions. It's a non-invasive procedure, meaning it doesn't require any cuts or incisions.
