GUILFORD, Conn.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Hyperfine (Nasdaq: HYPR), the groundbreaking medical device company that has redefined brain imaging with the world’s first FDA-cleared portable magnetic resonance brain imaging system—the Swoop® system—today announced the clearance of the ninth generation of AI-powered Swoop® system software. This advanced software significantly reduces scan times across multiple MR sequences without sacrificing image quality. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) clearance of this software further solidifies Hyperfine as a leader in AI-powered health technology.
These scan time reductions may enable Swoop® system images to help speed up the diagnostic process in acute care settings, which is crucial for time-sensitive medical conditions such as stroke, where every second counts. Reducing the overall acquisition time for sequences can also decrease the negative impact of patient motion on image quality.
Professor Adnan Siddiqui, MD, PhD, from the University of Buffalo, emphasized the impact of rapid imaging capabilities, saying, “Timely MR brain imaging is essential for clinicians making critical treatment decisions, particularly in acute neurological episodes like strokes. We have been an active site in the ACTION PMR study assessing the use of the Swoop® system in stroke diagnosis, and this latest software will help the Swoop® system more seamlessly integrate into stroke workflows. It is wonderful to see Hyperfine respond quickly to clinical feedback and continue to innovate to improve the Swoop® system.”
