Morphology
The phrase combines 'magnetic' (relating to magnetism) with 'resonance' (a resonant/vibrational response); a B1 learner who knows both words can infer it denotes a resonance phenomenon that involves magnetic fields even if they lack technical details. This adj+noun composition follows regular English formation and is cross-linguistically transparent, so the overall meaning is derivable from the parts.
Etymology
Magnetic resonance combines magnetic, which is like a tiny magnet, and resonance, which is like something that 'rings' when you tap it. One simple image is tiny particles in the body acting like little magnets that 'ring' and send back a signal when we nudge them in a magnetic field, and that 'ringing' signal is why the term now means the effect used to make pictures of the inside of the body.
