What is a MRI?
MRI is short for Magnetic Resonance Imaging. MRI is an advanced technology that lets your doctor see internal organs, blood vessels, muscles, joints, and more—without x-rays, pain or surgery. MRI is very safe; in fact, it makes use of natural forces and has no known harmful effects! It is important to know that MRI will NOT expose you to any ionizing radiation and does not involve any pain.
