Optoacoustics signs M. D. Anderson

Sound system developer Optoacoustics has added M. D. Anderson Cancer Center at the University of Texas in Houston to its customer list.

M. D. Anderson has installed the Or-Yehuda, Israel-based firm's interventional MR optical communication (IMROC) system in its interventional MRI suite. IMROC is designed to allow doctors to speak freely with both technicians and patients during interventional MRI procedures, Optoacoustics said.

It uses optical headphones and optical microphones that can support up to eight concurrent dialogues, eliminating MRI acoustic gradient noise, according to the firm.
