A Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) machine uses a strong magnetic field to align the hydrogen nuclei in the body. This alignment allows the MRI to detect the hydrogen nuclei and create detailed images of the body's internal structures. The magnetic field also helps to control the movement of the hydrogen nuclei, allowing the MRI to create images with high resolution and accuracy.
