subject: MRI Scans to Identify Muscle and Joint Disorders [print this page] MRI (Magnetic Resonance Imaging) scans are critical for early, accurate diagnosis and treatment. Several new studies provide evidence that MRI scanning technology is powerful enough to give reliable scanning results of various diseases and conditions. With the help of these imaging services, it is easier to identify muscle and joint disorders.
Get Reliable Scanning Results with MRI
MRI is a diagnostic tool used in medical imaging which gives detailed images of the structure and functions of the human body, from any angle. Unlike CT scans and X-rays, MRI scans utilize physical properties of magnetic fields, magnets and radio waves and computers, to generate clear and detailed images of the tissues within the body. The images show whether the bone has collapsed, how advanced the disorder is, whether the joint is weakened, and more.
Generally, the visualization includes injuries, disease, and infection in ligaments, tendons, nerves, bones, and synovial fluid. Identifying the actual problems or conditions, the physician will take appropriate measures to diagnose these abnormalities.
Painless,Safe Procedure
The process will typically last anywhere from 30 to 90 minutes, depending on the type of information required by the physician. During the process, you will not experience any difficulty. You may be asked to remove any metal objects, such as jewelry or non-permanent dentures.
With the use of advanced systems, it is much easier to perform this process; a new form of MRI scan now available is called open MRI. The open MRI system has an extra large opening, which is a great relief for obese and claustrophobic patients.
