Magnetic Resonance Imaging
Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) uses an electro-magnetic technique without x-ray radiation. It is presently the imaging technique with the highest soft tissue resolution. The method is used for examination of all regions of the human body. It is preferred in comparison to CT in pediatrics. Only patients with major metallic implants and cardiac pace makers are not suited for this imaging method.
