Swoop Portable MR Imaging System
Hyperfine, Inc. • Radiology • 12/06/2022
Device Purpose
The Swoop® Portable MR Imaging System™ is a bedside magnetic resonance device intended for imaging the internal structure of the head when comprehensive diagnostic examinations are clinically impractical. It functions by producing images via magnetic resonance, which, upon interpretation by a trained physician, can provide valuable information useful in determining a diagnosis.
Summary
The Swoop® Portable MR Imaging System™ is a medical device engineered for magnetic resonance imaging directly at a patient's bedside. Its designated purpose is to generate images depicting the internal structure of the human head. This functionality is particularly aimed at clinical contexts where undertaking a comprehensive diagnostic examination with conventional MRI equipment is not feasible or clinically practical. Operating on the principles of magnetic resonance, the system produces visual data of the head's internal anatomy. These images are intended for interpretation by a physician with appropriate training. The information derived from these physician-interpreted images serves as a valuable tool in the diagnostic process, aiding in the determination of a patient's medical condition related to the head.
