Biological effects and safety in magnetic resonance imaging: a review Hartwig V; Giovannetti G; Vanello N; Lombardi M; Landini L; Simi SInt J Environ Res Public Health 2009[Jun]; 6 (6): 1778-98Since the introduction of Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) as a diagnostic technique, the number of people exposed to electromagnetic fields (EMF) has increased dramatically. In this review, based on the results of a pioneer study showing in vitro and in vivo genotoxic effects of MRI scans, we report an updated survey about the effects of non-ionizing EMF employed in MRI, relevant for patients' and workers' safety. While the whole data does not confirm a risk hypothesis, it suggests a need for further studies and prudent use in order to avoid unnecessary examinations, according to the precautionary principle.|*Mutation[MESH]|*Safety[MESH]|Animals[MESH]|Humans[MESH]|Magnetic Resonance Imaging/*adverse effects[MESH] |
