Resumo

Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is a technique in which radiology images from inside the body are obtained. MRI equipment consists of a magnet which generates radio frequency waves that form the imagetypes exist, such as superconductive, the most widely used. The test duration is between 10 and 60 minutes, during which time the patient must be immobile. The duration of the test with the patient's stay in the closed magnet is associated with episodes of claustrophobia. Claustrophobia is defined as an anxiety disorder that produces a rejection of being in enclosed spaces: an episode of claustrophobia in MRI test prevents completion of the procedure to obtain the desired image. To solve this problem open magnets, after ingestion of anxiety, outpatient sedation, changes in patient positioning, audiovisual systems used and the use of Prisma® glasses.
