Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is a special and non-invasive medical diagnostic procedure that uses magnetic fields and radio frequency waves to create images of the internal structures of body parts. Alike X-rays, an MRI requires non-ionizing radiation. 

3T MRI Scan or 3-tesla MRI scan is a strong diagnostic method that uses powerful magnets to generate 3-tesla magnetic fields. Tesla is a unit of measurement of magnetic fields’ strength. 

These magnetic fields are much more robust than the conventional high-field magnetic fields used in an MRI, as a result, give a much clearer image of the body’s organs. 

This type of MRI scan is counted among the fastest diagnostic procedures, approximately 100 times, which provides computer-generated pictures of the internal structure of the body. The images can then be sent off-site for immediate diagnostics. 

In addition to that, a 3-tesla MRI scan gives more comfort than other MRI scanners. It is most commonly observed that, in a normal MRI scan, a patient can feel anxious and claustrophobic. 

This will not happen in a 3-tesla MRI scanner because it has a spacious bore or tube. If a patient’s health condition doesn’t require scans of the spinal cord, head, and neck, it is also possible that the patient’s head can remain outside of the bore for ease and comfort.
