Scientists at the University of Aberdeen have developed an ultra-low magnetic scanner, which can perform MRI scans without the need for intravenous contrast agents and with unprecedented precision.

For years, researchers and medical companies have explored low-field MRI systems (those with a magnetic field strength of less than 1 T) — searching for a feasible alternative to the loud, expensive ...

Computed tomography (CT) scans and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) are two types of imaging procedures. They both create detailed images of the internal body structures. While CT scans use X-rays to ...

Revolutionary new technology could make MRI scanners cost effective, more widely available to local communities and help save lives, thanks to a pioneering collaboration between the University of ...

Magnetic resonance enterography (MRE) is a type of medical imaging that uses a magnetic field to view details in the small intestine. Doctors can use this technique to diagnose conditions such as ...
