A Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) image is a non-invasive technique widely used in medicine to observe changes in tissues, as well as their structure, integrity, and composition.
The process of obtaining these images is based on the resonance of nuclei in the presence of an electromagnetic field, which temporarily aligns the body’s water molecules, producing weak signals that create cross-sectional images, like slices of bread.
It is not very common to request an NMR image of the fetus during pregnancy, but if the patient does, this is the result.
