Job description
MRI Tech – magnetic resonance imaging – (no radiation – magnetic)
MRI scanners using sophisticated magnetic fields and powerful radio frequencies. Because they are considered relatively non-invasive, MRI scans are often the preferred technological procedure. In particular, MRIs are used for imaging the human brain, spinal cord, nerves, muscles, ligaments, and tendons.
