The microwave works exactly how a MRI works. Just maybe the microwave doesn't get the preception around the axis? Not sure, Wikipedia gets a little hazy on upper level physics. Anyway, Ethan and I decided people don't get cooked in MRI machines because radio waves (used to achieve EM fields in MRIs) are much weaker than microwaves.
I imagine X-rays probably cook people a little bit too.
That's kind of disturbing. Every time you get an X-ray/MRI, you're doing a little bit of what you do the leftover turkey when you put it in the microwave.
Not that I eat turkey. But still.
