What is an MRI and how does it work? This video contains an animated, visual explanation of the basic principles of an MRI.

Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is a test that uses powerful magnets, radio waves, and a computer to make detailed pictures of the inside of your body. Your doctor can use this test to diagnose you or to see how well you've responded to treatment. Unlike Xrays and computed tomography (CT) scans, MRIs don’t use the damaging ionizing radiation of Xrays.
