You can book a private self-pay MRI Scan at Securescanners.com, but what is an MRI Scan? An MRI scan
(magnetic resonance image) is an advanced medical imaging method used in radiology to create images of the
internal structure and the physiology of the human body. MRI scanners employ strong magnetic forces, high
frequency radio waves, and ultra-sound waves to produce images of the various organs in the human body. The
technology is steadily improving; therefore, the quality of images produced is also improving. Although MRI is not
used to diagnose or prescribe the cure for any disease, it has been used extensively in many different areas of the
body.

Generally, MRI techniques are used for more than 24 hours to obtain detailed images of internal structures of
humans and animals. MRI is also employed for non-invasive imaging of soft tissues including the brain, abdomen,
gallbladder, kidney, pancreas, prostate, stomach, trachea, and tonsils. There are many types of MRI available;
however, the most common type is the fluoroscopy MRI (fluorescence MRI). The full body imaging systems like
the whole-body trimester imaging system, the whole-body magnetic resonance imaging system, and the
abdominal tomography scanner are also used extensively in hospitals.

During an MRI scan, a strong magnetic field is directed at the patient's body in the direction of its motion. Radio
waves and laser light are also used for private MRI scan costs controlling the movement of the patient's body while
undergoing the diagnostic procedure. When the water molecules close to the magnetism become excited, they
emit gamma rays. These gamma rays pinpoint specific locations of individual atoms or molecules in the human
body. During an MRI scan, the patient is placed in a reclining chair that is movable so that the radiologist can
better view the areas of interest with minimal effort. The patient lies on a bed and is placed in a scanner that
generates a map of the human body that is then magnified by the MRI machine. The map is highly detailed and
can be viewed from any position in the womb. Based on the images generated by the machine, the technologist
creates a clear picture of where the patient's problems or medical conditions lie.

For example, a headache may lie in the upper left quadrant of a patient's brain and radiologists can easily identify
this area by an MRI scan. If another major problem lies in the lower right part of a person's brain, a more detailed
MRI scan is performed to determine where this problem lies. MRI is one of the best tools used for detecting
tumors in the spinal cord because it helps to shrink tumors in the spinal cord. On the other hand, a tumor that has
spread beyond the spinal cord to other parts of a person's body such as the lungs or the heart will also be
detected by an MRI scan. The intensity and location of a tumor will be determined during an MRI scanner
examination.
