MRIs Help Make The World A Better Place

MRIs are important to me because they can show what might be wrong with the brain or any other part of the body.  I'm going to have a brain MRI in a couple of days in Seattle.  MRIs have been used to look for tumors, bleeding, hemorrhages, or other brain problems.  MRIs are different from CAT scans and x-rays because an MRI stands for magnetic resonance imaging.

MRIs are radio waves inside a strong magnetic field that translates into lots and lots of digital pictures like I'm showing here.  I like this technology because you can show and determine what is wrong with people.  Then people can get the help they need to start to fix themselves.  Maybe they need surgery, medicine or medical treatment.  

This picture show all the different areas of the brain.  This technology can probably show the brain's abnormality if there is one.  The brain is a very complex organ with lots of parts.  MRIs can show what has happened because of an accident or show something that someone was born with.

MRIs help make the world a better place because they spot health problems so the medical staff can help fix them and treat them.   The MRI was invented 37 years ago but took many years to become available to the general public, so it's pretty new technology.

In my opinion if hospitals want to have access to cool technology like this they need to purchase the equipment from the people who develop it the quickest.  

Besides our tax dollars going to pay for infrastructures, I think MRI machines should be paid with tax revenue so that everybody can have access to MRIs.  Everyone has health problems and so everyone needs good access to MRIs if they need one.

The Second Largest World Economy -- 

Spends Money On A New Train

Japan is planning to spend huge amounts of money on a new train.  It has been created by an architect that is spending a whole bunch of their money on a train--actually $50 million dollars.  It will be able to run on both electric and non-electric train rails.  It's the opposite of high speed rail in China, so it's probably slower.  It's mainly made for luxury tourists and sight seers.

There are 10 carriages on the train.  This is what the back of it looks like.  It's made to look extremely fancy and will hold up to 34 passengers.  It is also called the Cruise Train.  

As you can see, in the luxury parts it is extremely small which doesn't give much room for different people throughout the world. Most westerners are extremely tall and it looks like most westerners would not be able to fit on the train.  Also people in wheelchairs wouldn't be able to go on it either, which makes it very not safe and friendly for all people.  It was clearly not built and designed by engineers.  

It was designed with lots of glass so that the passengers would experience an appreciation for time and space.  It's going to make people extremely uncomfortable, especially people with mental and psychological problems, because it will make them feel like everyone is watching them.  People with expensive tastes will not like this train because it's the worst features of things that are cheap and the worst features of the things that are expensive...rolled all into one, by poor architecture.

This is possibly the only part of the train where people feel the safest.  It's not too small and it's not medium sized, there's a lot of work to do before this is all perfected.  There's no evidence that this will even make it out onto the market.  I've been on the Chinese Bullet Train and I liked that train a lot.  This looks like the total opposite.  I'm not sure I'd like this train.  I probably will not go on this train.  

This train in Japan also doesn't take into account all of the cultural differences between the countries. That's why the Chinese Bullet Train, for different countries visiting is more popular.  That's why the Americans and the Chinese are the two world's biggest economies.  The Japanese are going to have a lot of work to do to impress the rest of the world.  Feel free to leave a comment on my blog.
