Susceptibility artifacts are distortions in magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) caused by variations in magnetic field susceptibility, often due to metal implants or air-tissue interfaces. These artifacts can lead to image misinterpretation and are typically addressed through advanced imaging techniques or post-processing corrections.

Susceptibility Artifacts

Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) is a non-invasive imaging technique that uses strong magnetic fields and radio waves to generate detailed images of the organs and tissues in the body. It is widely used in medical diagnosis and research due to its ability to provide high-resolution images without exposure to ionizing radiation.

Magnetic Resonance Imaging

Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) is a non-invasive diagnostic technique that uses powerful magnets and radio waves to generate detailed images of the body's internal structures, particularly soft tissues. It is widely used in medical settings for diagnosing conditions, monitoring treatment progress, and guiding surgical planning without exposing patients to ionizing radiation.
