MRI Scan

Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) uses a strong magnetic field and radiowave to examine the body. It is non-invasive and radiation free. It provides detailed three dimensional anatomical images of soft tissue, muscles, tendon and ligament, bone and cartilage, internal organs and nerve. It doesn’t have the limitation that other imaging modalities have.
