Breast MRI or breast magnetic resonance imaging is a noninvasive, painless medical procedure that is used by your doctor to assist him or her in diagnosing and treating certain medical conditions.
By utilizing a powerful magnetic field, radio waves and a computer, MR imaging can provide detailed pictures of your organs, soft tissues, bone and most all other internal body structures. The images can either be reviewed on the computer screen or printed to view a hard copy of the image.
With MRI pictures, your physician is able to better evaluate parts of the body and certain diseases that may not be detected or seen using other imaging tools like x-ray, ultrasound or compute tomography.
