Solution
The correct option is B Magnetic resonance imaging
Magnetic resonance imaging is a non-invasive technique, which uses strong magnetic fields and provides information about chemistry, metabolic and metabolic data with a tissue without time-consuming chemical analysis.
MRI is the safest technique for the detection of cancer because it doesn't utilize radiations and therefore doesn't cause any side effects.
The Histopathological study is not safe as it is an invasive technique and Radiography and Computed tomography use harmful X rays.
So, the correct answer is 'Magnetic resonance imaging'.
