Strain–encoded magnetic resonance imaging

Okay kiddo, so have you ever seen a cool picture of the inside of your body, like your bones or your brain? Well, doctors use something called "magnetic resonance imaging" to take those pictures. MRI for short.

Now, there's a special kind of MRI called "strain-encoded MRI" that helps doctors see how your heart is doing. You see, your heart is just like a really strong muscle that pumps blood all around your body. But sometimes, your heart can't pump as well as it should, and that's where strain-encoded MRI comes in to help.

Basically, strain-encoded MRI uses magnets to look inside your heart and see how well your heart is squeezing and relaxing. It's like watching a video of your heart to make sure everything is working properly! This special kind of MRI can help doctors diagnose heart problems earlier and treat them better.

So that's strain-encoded magnetic resonance imaging - it's a cool way for doctors to look inside your heart and make sure it's working just right!
