A long-standing mystery about nuclear magnetic resonance has finally been solved, an advance that could lead to clearer MRI images for medical uses and could provide better control of atoms for ...

Alexandros Washburn, here with son Ali, received a novel prostate cancer treatment using very high doses of radiation guided by MRI. “This is an extraordinary tool — and in the hands of an ...

While MRI theory sees nuclei of hydrogen as miniscule bar magnets spinning in characteristic ways within magnetic fields, it originally ignored certain interactions between those spins, Warren said.

DURHAM, N.C. -- Duke University chemists say they have developed a new way to measure temperature changes inside the body with unprecedented precision by correcting a ...

As part of the School of Health Professions at the University of Alabama at Birmingham (UAB) we are preparing and advancing students in health professions careers in clinical, research, and academia.

Magnetic Resonance Imaging – MRI – has revolutionised medicine with its sharp images of previously unseen interiors. But despite that success, only now have physicists solved a mystery about how it ...

MRI stands for magnetic resonance imaging. It is a type of scan that creates pictures using magnetism and radio waves. MRI scans produce pictures from angles all around the body and shows up soft ...

A magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scan uses a strong magnetic field and radio waves to create detailed images of the organs and tissues within the body. MRI can help with viewing injuries, tumors, ...
