Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is a diagnostic technique designed to visualize/create images of the internal structures of the human body using magnetic and electromagnetic fields, which induce a resonance effect of hydrogen atoms in body parts. The associated software registers and processes the electromagnetic emission created by these atoms to produce images of the body structures. These modalities help healthcare professionals visualize the internal structure and surrounding tissues. MRI systems are primarily used in hospitals and diagnostic imaging centers
