Tom wasn't wearing his helmet when he fell off his bike and hit his head. He had to go to the hospital. The doctor tells Tom he is going to have a test called an MRI, like an x-ray, he explains. The MRI takes pictures of the body to see what's going on inside. Tom is afraid, but the doctor tells him to pretend he's an astronaut about to take off on an important mission to Mars. helps childen have a positive experience by explaining the MRI procedure in child-friendly language. Praise for Tom's MRI Space Adventure -Dr. Richard Meltzer, New Jersey -Dr. Richard A. Salman, New Jersey
