The Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) machine is a subset of nuclear magnetic resonance imaging technology that produces images of the body using magnetic field gradients. The MRI Machine has two components: the computer-based control centre room and the adjacent MRI machine room where the patient undergoes the scan.
This study aimed to assess the quality and reliability of YouTube videos about MRI machines, MRI scans, and MRI claustrophobia and compare the quality and reliability of the videos among different types of uploaders. Methodology: The YouTube Search Algorithm and a Google Sheets questionnaire were used to evaluate 10 videos that satisfied the inclusion criteria of the study. The video analytics included were title, number of views, likes and dislikes, comments, duration, source, and content. The quality of each video was established using the Global Quality Score (GQS), Reliability Score, and Video Power Index (VPI), where each quantifier went through statistical analysis using SPSS software, version 21.0 (IBM Corp., Armonk, NY) to determine if there was any significance.
In order to determine statistical differences between the groups, the Kruskal-Wallis test was used on the quantifiers GQS, reliability score, and VPI to generate p-values. The p-value for VPI is 0.467, GQS is 0.277, and reliability is 0.316. All the p-values are greater than 0.05, showing that there is no statistical support for any significant difference between the groups in their VPI, GQS and reliability scores.
YouTube videos with high-quality and reliable information on MRI machines, MRI procedures, and claustrophobia, especially those uploaded by clinicians and hospitals, can provide correct information, helping patients decide to undergo these procedures and alleviate claustrophobia.
磁共振成像（MRI）机器是核磁共振成像技术的一个分支，它利用磁场梯度生成人体图像。MRI机器有两个组成部分：基于计算机的控制中心室和相邻的MRI机房，患者在该机房接受扫描。
本研究旨在评估YouTube上有关MRI机器、MRI扫描和MRI幽闭恐惧症的视频的质量和可靠性，并比较不同类型上传者的视频质量和可靠性。方法：使用YouTube搜索算法和谷歌表格问卷对10个符合研究纳入标准的视频进行评估。纳入的视频分析内容包括标题、观看次数、点赞和差评、评论、时长、来源和内容。使用全球质量评分（GQS）、可靠性评分和视频影响力指数（VPI）确定每个视频的质量，每个量化指标均使用SPSS 21.0软件（IBM公司，纽约州阿蒙克）进行统计分析，以确定是否存在显著性差异。
为了确定组间的统计学差异，对量化指标GQS、可靠性评分和VPI使用Kruskal-Wallis检验生成p值。VPI的p值为0.467，GQS为0.277，可靠性为0.316。所有p值均大于0.05，表明在VPI、GQS和可靠性评分方面，组间不存在显著差异的统计学依据。
YouTube上有关MRI机器、MRI检查程序和幽闭恐惧症的高质量且可靠的信息视频，尤其是临床医生和医院上传的那些视频，可以提供正确信息，帮助患者决定接受这些检查并缓解幽闭恐惧症。
