ABOUT INNOVATION4MRI

Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is a cornerstone of medical imaging and is essential in the diagnosis and monitoring of a variety of diseases. It is a recent field that has developed extremely rapidly, thanks to advances in technology and medicine.1

MRI is the technique of choice for evaluating many diseases because of its soft tissue contrast, high spatial and temporal resolution, and lack of ionizing radiation.2
A number of techniques are being explored to further enhance the diagnostic accuracy of MRI.
