Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) technology is a non-invasive medical technology used to generate detailed cross-sectional images of the internal structures of the body, including major organs, bones and areas of soft tissue. MRI technology utilizes a combination of radio frequency signals, powerful magnets and internal computer processors to generate images of the body which are used for diagnostic services in a medical setting. MRI machines are carefully engineered to provide the most precise diagnostic services, and as a result, they contain many important parts that must be operating properly to produce the most accurate images. Since MRI technology is based on powerful magnetic forces, the use of metal parts is kept to a minimum to prevent interference between the magnets and radio frequency signals. MRI machines have several industrial-grade plastic components that are specially designed for MRI technology, including several different types of specialty coils. These specialty coils, which typically contain many smaller components within them, emit a strong radio frequency signal which is processed by the system's internal computer and other components, resulting in a high quality image. In MRI machines, both gradient coils and radio frequency coils work together to provide signal localization, receiving or transmitting the RF signal that is produced during the imaging process. Depending on the body parts being imaged, different MRI coils are used, including specially designed coils for imaging the brain, knee and breast areas, and general purpose coils, which are typically used for larger scanning areas.CapMed+ sells a variety of high quality MRI parts for GE, Hitachi, HP, Marconi, Philips, Picker, Siemens, Sony and Toshiba systems.
