Hyperfine

About

Founded in 2014, Hyperfine, Inc. has pioneered a revolution in medical imaging with the creation of the Swoop® Portable MR Imaging® system. This groundbreaking device is the first FDA-cleared portable MRI that delivers ultra-low-field brain imaging at the point of care. Traditional MRI systems often confine patients to costly, inconvenient facilities, and pose various risks during transport. Hyperfine's innovative approach changes that by bringing MR imaging directly to patients in clinical settings, thereby enhancing patient safety and improving diagnostic timelines. The Swoop system enables clinicians to make timely clinical decisions without the unnecessary wait times associated with conventional MRI systems. The portable design allows for MR imaging to be conducted right at the bedside or wherever the patient may be, minimizing disruptions while promoting a stress-free environment for patients and families. It particularly shines in settings such as intensive care units and emergency departments, where swift and accurate imaging is critical for conditions like stroke. The portable system not only helps in diagnosing various neurological conditions but also optimizes resource utilization across healthcare facilities by reducing dependency on traditional imaging resources.
