QUERY REGARDING MAGNETIC RAYS OF MRI

2020-06-01 09:24:06
Can the magnetic rays of an MRI cause DNA changes in our body ? I have heard about CT scans that many CT scans  can cause DNA changes and can lead to cancer in later part of life. Is it same case with MRI ?

MRI does not pose risk of radiation. But CT scan does. It cannot be determined how much. But frequent the exposure higher the chances of bad effects.
