However, in Europe there are on average 11 Magnetic Resonance systems per 1 million people, while only 0.5 systems per million people in India which are densely distributed around wealthier cities, leaving poorer areas lacking in medical imaging facilities. [1] The negatives surrounding these imaging deficiencies have inspired several scientists around the world to develop new methods and equipment that can become more accessible to the masses. Huge amounts time of research is going into developing new technologies that can be substituted for, or even replace these
