Difference between CT
scan and MRI scan
A guide by Kryptonite Solutions
A CT scan (computed tomography) and an MRI
(magnetic resonance imaging) scan are two of
the most commonly used imaging scans used in
medical diagnosis. Both tests use powerful
imaging technology to create detailed images of
the body, but they have different uses and
characteristics.

CT scans use X-ray radiation to take pictures from many different
angles quickly, allowing doctors to view a 3D image of the area. It is
often used to diagnose tumors, internal trauma, and orthopedic
problems. It gives very detailed images of bones and soft tissues,
but is not as sensitive to the soft organs.
MRI scans use a powerful magnet and radio waves to create
detailed images of the body’s soft organs, like the brain, heart, and
internal organs. It can detect injuries and diseases that may not
show up on a CT scan. It is especially useful for detecting tumors
and tissue abnormalities.
Overall, CT scans are quicker and more detailed at capturing
images of bones and hard tissues, while MRIs are better at
detecting soft organs and tissue abnormalities.
