Welcome to the PF.

Are you familiar with the basics of MRI?

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mri

.
 
yes i have done a few reports on it on how it works, how to prepare for it, the risks and benfits...its just i need to know what applications inside the mri can cause the intesity to reduce and how to increase it...

i have mentioned stuff like the part that the mri is scanning can affect intensity as it could be asmall area or large...as well as i have added information such as the condition of the patient, but i have not included anything of the mri itself such as the coils that may affect the intensity, but how...i just need any other application i will do the further information gathering myself.
