What are all the different types of noises that an MRI makes when you’re getting a scan? And why is it different noises every few minutes?
In: Technology
Basically the MRI spins the protons* in all the water molecules in your body in the same direction.
Knowing this, the sounds you hear are actually pulses that only some of your tissues react to (the extra energy that courses through your body knock them out of the spin). By changing the pulses (sounds), the receiver can focus on those tissues that are spinning differently.
