Problem
Expanding MRI access typically requires significant infrastructure investment, including dedicated rooms, specialized services, and complex installation requirements. These constraints limit where additional imaging capacity can be placed, creating barriers for rural hospitals, outpatient clinics, and other care settings that lack the resources for traditional MRI suites.
Solution
MagnetaMR is developing Origin, a portable low-field MRI platform designed to operate on standard electrical power without a dedicated MRI suite or superconducting magnet cooling. The system uses a permanent magnet architecture that requires no liquid helium, and its wheeled enclosure and mobile patient support are designed to move through standard hospital doorways. Origin integrates magnet design, imaging electronics, and patient support into a single platform intended for whole-body anatomical imaging across neurological, musculoskeletal, and torso applications. The system targets a mass of approximately 250 kg and a clear bore diameter of 60 cm, with operation on a standard 120 V/15 A electrical supply.
Target Audience
Primary customers include rural hospitals, outpatient clinics, and veterinary practices seeking portable imaging capabilities, as well as field medicine and disaster response organizations operating in infrastructure-limited environments.
