Cognitive evaluation following NMR imaging of the brain

J A Besson et al. J Neurol Neurosurg Psychiatry. 1984 Mar.

Abstract

Nuclear magnetic resonance imaging of the brain will soon be a standard neuroradiological investigation. Previous work has indicated that this is a safe procedure. Tests which measure various aspects of cognition were performed on volunteer subjects before and after (medium and short term) NMR brain imaging and indicate that deterioration did not occur.
