what can you see in a mri?
<answer> Muscles, organs and bones. <context> An MRI uses magnets and radio waves to capture images inside your body without making a surgical incision. The scan allows your doctor to see the soft tissue of the body, like muscles and organs, in addition to your bones. An MRI can be performed on any part of your body. However, a lumbar MRI specifically examines the lumbar section of your spine — a region from where back problems commonly originate.
