If you thought the field-strength wars were over in MRI, think again. Low-field MRI is making a comeback, as researchers and vendors realize the technology has unique advantages in making MRI more accessible throughout the healthcare enterprise.
In this Technology Focus interview, we talked to Amit Vohra, PhD, the CEO of startup MRI developer Neuro42. The company is developing a low-field MRI scanner designed to assist with interventional procedures.
Neuro42 was formed in August 2020, and it already has prototypes operating at clinical sites. The company plans to discuss its technology at the 2021 International Society for Magnetic Resonance in Medicine (ISMRM) virtual meeting May 15-20.
