Magnetic Resonance Imaging01:24

Magnetic Resonance Imaging

5.1K
Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is a noninvasive medical imaging technique based on a phenomenon of nuclear physics discovered in the 1930s, in which matter exposed to magnetic fields and radio waves was found to emit radio signals. In 1970, a physician and researcher named Raymond Damadian noticed that malignant (cancerous) tissue gave off different signals than normal body tissue. He applied for a patent for the first MRI scanning device in clinical use by the early 1980s. The early MRI...

Imaging Studies I: CT and MRI

239
Introduction: MRI and CT scans are crucial advancements in medical imaging techniques, playing a vital role in diagnosing conditions related to the gastrointestinal (GI) system. Each scan serves distinct purposes, targets specific areas, and requires unique nursing duties.
Description of the Procedures
Computed Tomography (CT) scan:
Computed Tomography (CT) scans use X-ray technology to generate detailed images of bones, organs, and tissues. During the scan, the patient lies on a moving table...

Description
Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) and Ventilation Perfusion Scans are two radiological investigations that offer detailed diagnostic images of the body, particularly lung structures.
MRI
MRI uses magnetic fields and radiofrequency signals to distinguish between normal and abnormal tissues. This technology provides a more detailed diagnostic image than CT scans, enabling it to characterize pulmonary nodules, stage bronchogenic carcinoma, and evaluate inflammatory activity in...

Area of Science:

  • Medical Imaging and Radiology
  • Patient Experience and Psychology
  • Qualitative Research Synthesis

Background:

  • Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) procedures can induce patient distress, anxiety, and claustrophobia, leading to workflow disruptions and psychological effects.
  • Patient experiences with MRI are diverse, influenced by socio-demographic factors and clinical conditions.
  • A comprehensive understanding of patient experiences and influencing factors through systematic review is currently lacking.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To systematically investigate and characterize the experiences of adult patients undergoing clinical Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI).
  • To identify factors that characterize and influence patient experiences throughout the MRI process.

Main Methods:

  • Systematic review and meta-aggregation/meta-synthesis of qualitative studies.
  • Inclusion of 8 qualitative studies encompassing 220 adult patients' reported experiences and 144 direct quotes.
  • Quality appraisal using Joanna Briggs Institute (JBI) tools and data analysis via a convergent segregated approach with concept mapping.

Main Results:

  • Analysis of 144 patient quotes detailed experiences across pre-MRI, scanning, and post-MRI stages.
  • Identified characterizing factors include coping strategies, medical technology's appearance, professional interactions, and information provision.
  • Limited socio-demographic data (health literacy, occupation, ethnicity, country of origin) and study settings (6/8 in university hospitals) were noted.

Conclusions:

  • The meta-aggregation provides a foundational description of adult MRI patient experiences.
  • Gaps in raw data and limited socio-demographic diversity restrict a deeper understanding of individual experiences and characterizing factors.
  • Further research with diverse populations and detailed data is needed to fully elucidate patient experiences in MRI.
