How does MRI utilize magnetic fields in gynecology?

Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) leverages powerful magnetic fields and radio waves to generate detailed images of the body's internal structures. In gynecology, MRI is particularly useful for evaluating complex conditions like endometriosis and pelvic masses. The process involves aligning hydrogen atoms in the body with a magnetic field, then using radiofrequency pulses to disturb this alignment. The emitted signals as atoms return to their original state are captured and transformed into images by a computer.
