The MRI equipment consists of following components:
•
The magnet generates the magnetic field.
•
Shim coils make the magnetic field homogeneous.
•
Radio frequency coils transmit the radio signal into the body part being imaged.
•
Receiver coils detect the returning radio signals.
•
Gradient coils provide spatial localization of the signals.
•
Shielding coils produce a magnetic field that cancels the field from primary coils in regions where it is not desired.
•
The computer reconstructs the signals into the image.
•
The MRI scanner room is shielded by a faraday shield.
•
Different cooling systems cool the magnet, the scanner room and the technique room.

Better MRI equipment and software design along with the latest information technology improves system maintenance and overall communication. Software and digital imaging and communications in medicine (DICOM) compatibility allows to network into hospital databases, helps to modify pulse sequences, data post processing, and archiving via picture archiving and communication system (PACS).
