Basic Working Principle of MRI
This information is not meant for those of you who haven’t still forgotten your high school chemistry and biology. It is a well known fact that 70 % of
Remember those good old times when you were fascinated by tiny magnet pieces attracting pins, coins and other metal objects? May be you would be surprised to know that there are these tiny little magnets inside your body as well. Yes! The hydrogen atoms in our body behave just the same way and the
So, it would not be wrong to say that all of us have magnetic powers. When a human body such as this is placed in between two large magnets, these tiny magnets now obey the large one and change their orientation with respect to the magnetic field just like how small children obey their PT master in school.
