Which risk increases when magnetic fields weaken in MRI machines?

A)Reduced signal-to-noise ratio occurs
B)Increased patient claustrophobia develops
C)Radio frequency interference becomes greater
D)Cryogen boil-off rate reduces much further

💡 Explanation

Reduced field strength weakens nuclear magnetic polarization because the Larmor frequency decreases. With fewer polarized nuclei, SNR diminishes; therefore diagnostic image quality decreases, rather than issues with temperature or the scan environment.
