← ScienceWhich risk increases when the magnetic field gradient increases rapidly in a Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) machine?
A)Peripheral nerve stimulation occurs✓
B)Cryogen boil-off accelerates rapidly
C)Radiofrequency interference decreases notably
D)Image resolution improves linearly
💡 Explanation
Peripheral nerve stimulation is more likely increased because Faraday's law of induction induces stronger electric fields. This induces a current that overwhelms the membrane potential, therefore resulting nerve depolarization, rather than other changes dependent upon imaging parameters.
