What does 'MRI' stand for?

  1. Magnetic Resonance Imaging

  2. Massive Radio Influence

  3. Micro Reactive Ion

  4. Molecular Research Institute

The correct answer is: Magnetic Resonance Imaging

MRI stands for Magnetic Resonance Imaging. Option B, Massive Radio Influence, is incorrect because it confuses 'MRI' with the abbreviation 'MRI' used in physics to measure the effect of magnetic fields on particles. Option C, Micro Reactive Ion, is incorrect because it does not contain the words 'Magnetic Resonance Imaging' and is not related to the medical field. Option D, Molecular Research Institute, is incorrect because it is not the full form of 'MRI' and does not relate to imaging techniques in medicine. Option A is the correct answer as it is the full form and is commonly used in the medical field.
