MRI coil and contrast injector developer Medrad of Indianola, PA, has signed a two-year agreement with W.L. Gore and Associates of Newark, DE, to be the exclusive distributor of Gore’s cardiovascular array surface coil. The MR coil combines a dedicated cardiac coil and a dedicated abdominal coil in a single device.
Extending from the chest down to the bifurcation of the aorta in the pelvic region, the coil makes it possible to image vascular disease throughout the entire torso in a single scan. The product has received Food and Drug Administration clearance and will be available in the U.S. in July, with worldwide distribution slated for rollout next year.
