NMR
The received signals are generated by magnetic resonance of hydrogen nuclei especially abundant in all the constituent body, these signals are deciphered by a special transducer that builds three-dimensional image.


The production of images with MRI requires a certain time, and for this reason that blood, being in motion, does not generate detectable signals; different is instead the case of a hematoma.


For the same reasons, MRI is not very applicable to districts on the move as the upper abdomen.
