The correct Answer is:
**Step-by-Step Solution:** 1. **Understanding the Question**: The question asks about the application of strong magnetic fields and non-ionizing radiations. We need to identify which medical imaging technique utilizes these elements. 2. **Identifying the Techniques**: The main techniques to consider are: - MRI (Magnetic Resonance Imaging) - Radiography - CT Scan (Computed Tomography) - EEG (Electroencephalography) 3. **Analyzing MRI**: - MRI stands for Magnetic Resonance Imaging. - It uses strong magnetic fields and non-ionizing radiation to create images of the internal organs. - Thus, MRI is a strong candidate for our answer. 4. **Analyzing Radiography**: - Radiography is used to obtain images of internal organs. - It primarily uses X-rays, which are a form of ionizing radiation. - Therefore, radiography does not fit the criteria of using non-ionizing radiation. 5. **Analyzing CT Scan**: - A CT scan is another imaging technique that studies internal organs. - It also uses X-rays or gamma rays, which are ionizing radiations. - Thus, CT scan is not the correct option either. 6. **Analyzing EEG**: - EEG is used specifically to study brain activity. - It involves placing electrodes on the scalp to measure electrical activity in the brain. - EEG does not use strong magnetic fields or ionizing radiation, making it an incorrect choice. 7. **Conclusion**: Based on the analysis, the only technique that uses strong magnetic fields and non-ionizing radiation is MRI. Therefore, the correct answer is MRI. **Final Answer**: MRI (Magnetic Resonance Imaging) ---

Read the following statements regarding the various techniques used in cancer detection. (i) Cancer detection is based on biopsy and histopathological studies of the tissue, and blood and bone marrow tests for increased cell counts in case of leukaemia. (ii) In biopsy, a piece of the suspected tissue cut into thin sections is stained and examined under microscope by a pathologist. (iii) Techniques like radiography (use of X-rays), CT (computed tomography) and MRI(magnetic resonance imaging) are very useful to detect cancers of the internal organs. (iv) Computed tomography uses strong magnetic fileds and non-ionising radiations to detect physiological changes in living tissues. (v) MRI uses X-rays and ionising radiation to generate a 3-D image of the internal structure of an object. Which of the above statements are incorrect ?
