aligns in a single direction due to the external electromagnetic field that is created by the powerful electromagnets that we use in MRI. When we stop sending the external energy, these protons start giving back the captured energy. This incoming energy is then absorbed by a detector and is converted to images using intervening devices in the MRI system. MRI is one of the medical scanning procedures that is not hazardous to a patient (5). 44 To conclude, our body is made up of flowing ions, charges and electrons that constantly generate electromagnetic fields in the human body. These electromagnetic fields, beyond their capacity to generate molecular reactions, also carries embedded informa-
