Magnetic resonance imaging uses electromagnetic fields to peer deeply into many things including the human body and the Earth. The most popular use for magnetic resonance imaging technology comes from the field of medicine. MRI tests are noninvasive ways doctors check for everything from blood clots in the brain to torn ligaments in the knee. MRI labs have MRI machines and conduct MRI tests. Many magnetic resonance imaging labs are located in hospitals or in other large medical facilities. Many MRI labs also have x-ray machines and CAT scan or CT scan machines. Geologists also use magnetic resonance imaging technology to peer under the surface of the Earth. MRI equipment is sometimes used to detect oil, natural gas and water.
