Cortical lesions play a major role in the progression of multiple sclerosis (MS). A recent study looked to longitudinally characterize the development and evolution of cortical lesions in MS across ...

If you recently have had an MRI scan, you may have noticed that clinical machines with 3.0-Tesla (T) field strength have replaced many earlier generation 1.5-T machines. Higher field strength ...

Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) machines can clearly view non-bony parts of the body—soft tissue such as the brain, muscles and ligaments—as well as detect tumors, making it possible to diagnose many ...

June 27 (UPI) --When amalgam fillings, sometimes referred to as silver fillings, are exposed to ultra-high-strength MRI scans, they can release toxic mercury, according to a new study. While ...

Ultra-powerful 7T MRI scanners could be used to help identify those patients with Parkinson's disease and similar conditions most likely to benefit from new treatments for previously-untreatable ...

A MAGNETIC resonance imaging (MRI) scanner has taken its first blurry shots of the human brain without using massive magnets. MRI scanners image the human body by detecting how hydrogen atoms respond ...
