An MRI scan uses a large, strong magnet combined with radio waves to generate multiple cross-section images that are then displayed on a computer. MRIs provide a highly detailed picture of any part of the body and show a high level of detail of the brain, spinal cord, heart, abdominal/pelvic organs, and joints.
