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'.
