Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) is an advanced, non-invasive and painless imaging method used to produce detailed images of the body’s organs. The areas of the body that can be examined with an MRI include the head, chest, abdomen, vital organs, joints, spine and upper and lower extremities.
MRI scanners do not use X-rays, but a strong magnet and radiofrequency. The Euromedica group has state-of-the-art scanners for the best imaging, offering advanced services.
