Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

An MRI, or magnetic resonance imaging, uses a strong magnetic field and radio waves to create detailed images of the body's internal structures. In the case of the brain, an MRI can create a three-dimensional representation of the brain that responds to the body's magnetic field. This allows researchers to study the structure and function of the brain in detail. In the case mentioned, an MRI was used to discover that the ventricles (fluid-filled spaces) in the brains of individuals with schizophrenia are enlarged.
