Solution
The answer is B: MRI.
Explanation for each option:
A. PET (Positron Emission Tomography) involves the use of radioactive tracers to visualize metabolic processes in the body. It does not primarily involve magnetic fields or radio waves.
B. MRI (Magnetic Resonance Imaging) uses strong magnetic fields and radio waves to generate detailed images of the organs and tissues in the body. This option is correct because it directly involves magnetic fields, radio waves, and computerized enhancement.
C. CT (Computed Tomography) uses X-rays to create detailed images of the inside of the body. It does not primarily involve magnetic fields or radio waves.
D. TMS (Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation) uses magnetic fields to stimulate nerve cells in the brain but is not primarily used for imaging purposes and does not involve radio waves in the same way as MRI.
In summary, the correct answer is B: MRI, as it involves magnetic fields, radio waves, and computerized enhancement.
