Question

question 7 of 10
which of these is an advantage of an mri over an x - ray?
a. it does not require training.
b. it produces better images of hard tissues.
c. it can produce three - dimensional images.
d. it is used only for heat imaging

Explanation:

1. Option A is incorrect: MRI operation requires specialized, extensive training for technicians and radiologists.
2. Option B is incorrect: X-rays produce superior images of hard dense tissues like bones, while MRI excels at soft tissue imaging.
3. Option C is correct: MRI scans can reconstruct detailed 3D images of internal body structures, while standard X-rays produce only 2D projections.
4. Option D is incorrect: MRI uses magnetic fields and radio waves for anatomical/functional imaging, it does not perform heat imaging.

Answer:

C. It can produce three-dimensional images.
