MRI information
Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is a technology for visualizing biological tissues non-invasively. When used to visualize the heart, the technology produces two-dimensional images in which cardiac tissue appears white or light gray while the surrounding medium is black. A series of closely spaced two-dimensional images can be obtained and combined to form a three-dimensional structure.
