1 Jan 1979 Jahr - MRI Scans are Introduced

Beschreibung:

Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scanners prove more effective than earlier equipment in providing information about soft tissue such as the brain.The patient lies inside a large cylindrical magnet and extremely strong radio waves are then sent through the body. MRI provides very detailed pictures, so it is particularly useful for finding tumours in the brain. It can also identify conditions such as multiple sclerosis and the extent of damage after a stroke.
