Recent Advances of Magnetic Resonance Imaging in the Diagnosis of Spinal Cord Injury

Abstract

Magnetic Resonance Imaging is one of the diagnostic processes being employed in the medical field for monitoring the physiological processes and anatomy of the body. The circumstantial images of organs and tissues of the body are attained by availing the colossal magnets and radio waves. A huge surge of medical investigation in radiology detects the potential diseases and health disorders in the living body. In contrast to CT scans and X-rays, they are the safest diagnostic machine as they avoid the noxious potential to permeate the body tissues. It is becoming more prominent in clinical practices owing to the ease of availability and extremely cost-effective way of examining the erroneous conditions of the body. The review enlightened the history, classification, principles, applications, limitations of its use, and investigations of genetic damage by the prolonged exposure of disrupting frequency radio waves on exposure to in-vitro and in-vivo cells. MRI is the most efficacious and developed imaging system, and further advances in 3D imaging will increase their application even further.
