A prototype device for performing magnetic-resonance-imaging scans of the brain that integrates a lightweight permanent magnet and low-power gradient coils is suitable for eventual use at the bedside.

Magnetic Resonance Imaging machines, or MRIs, take detailed pictures of organs and tissues generated by coils — but these traditional MRI coils are often bulky, rigid, costly and don’t always ...

An intense international effort to improve the resolution of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) for studying the human brain has culminated in an ultra-high resolution 7 Tesla scanner that records up to ...

A team led by investigators at MGH has developed a low-cost, compact, portable and low-power "head only" MRI scanner that could be mounted in an ambulance, wheeled into a patient's room, or put in ...

Minimally invasive endovascular interventions have become an important tool for the treatment of cardiovascular diseases such as ischemic heart disease, peripheral artery disease, and stroke. X-ray ...

Cooley and her colleagues designed and tested a portable prototype scanner for brain MRI that can be plugged into a standard outlet and emits much less noise than traditional MRI scanners. The magnet ...

NISKAYUNA — General Electric Co., in partnership with the Department of Defense, is developing a new, more advanced magnetic resonance imaging, or MRI, machine that can better detect mild brain ...
