New oxygen-enhanced MRI scan 'helps identify most dangerous tumours'
'A new scanning test developed in the UK could help doctors pinpoint dangerous cancers before they spread around the body. The technique uses magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) to map regions of oxygen deprivation within tumours. Lack of oxygen, or ...'

Traces of metal left in brain after MRI scan: does it matter?
'New concern has arisen over a contrast agent commonly used in magnetic resonance imaging, or MRI. The agent is a rare earth metal and there is now concern that traces of it may be left in the brain following an MRI scan. The metal, gadolinium, is ...'
