The role of MRI studies «Total Body» in the primary diagnosis of various diseases
Abstract
This article dwells on whole-body MRI «Total Body» efficacy as the choice method for whole-body screening for the purpose of early diseases diagnostics. On the basis of whole-body MRI analyses during one and a half year we’ve got the results allowing speaking about a new precise and reliable method for revealing pathology of minimal dimensions in any organ, including malignant tumors.
