Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). gives higher resolution images in three steps:. Strong magnets cause protons in brain tissue to line up in parallel. A pulse of radio waves knocks protons over. Protons reconfigure themselves, emitting radio waves that differ by tissue density.. Katrina . Peariso. , MD, PhD;. Prem A Kandiah, MD. Slides. : George A. Lopez, MD PhD. ENLS Version 5.0.
