magnetic resonance
Magnetic resonance is a scientific technique used to study the properties of atomic nuclei. It relies on the magnetic properties of certain isotopes, such as hydrogen, which are abundant in biological tissues. When placed in a strong magnetic field, these nuclei resonate at specific frequencies, allowing researchers to gather detailed information about the structure and composition of materials.
One of the most common applications of magnetic resonance is in magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), a medical imaging technique. MRI provides high-resolution images of the body's internal structures, helping doctors diagnose and monitor various health conditions without using harmful radiation.
