MRI Equipment


MRI Machine:

The mention of MRI machines bring to mind the gargantuan machines in hospitals that weigh a couple of tons and guzzle up huge amounts of electricity. But that’s a thing of the past for research in the arctic used for studying ice cores from deep the frozen wasteland has produced a small and portable version of the imaging tool enough to be brought by doctors for field operations should they be necessary.
Uses:
MRI’s have been used to save millions of lives with the detailed cross sections of the human body they can produce but only if they can be done in time to see what’s wrong with a patient and that takes time. many patients die because of no access to the imaging technology that is not only rare in some parts of the world but prohibitively very expensive.
The advent of smaller breakthroughs in engineering like the miniature version of the device can allow for example, battlefield surgeons to get better images of their patients in the nick of time where no such large equipment often exists. This new technology would increase the reach of medicine into the remotest areas of the world allowing doctors to help more people in shorter times than usual.
