SPAC MRI | Spacious and accurate MRI machines of the future

Summary
We aim to pioneer the next generation of MRI machines which are less scary for claustrophobic patients, more accessible for the under-served population (e.g. obese patients, patients with medical implants in their body), more accurate for radiologists, and more cost effective for the manufacturer.

We developed a novel MRI field homogenization technology, which is 50x lighter, 5x more power efficient, performs 2x better and updates 250x faster than the current state-of-the-art. For the first time, we enable real-time, precise and local control of the MRI magnetic field using a compact device.

Our aim in this project is to substantiate our value proposition and evidence of safety/performance through solid data generation and disseminate the data to all relevant stakeholders to improve our market position and consolidate our long-term commercialization plans.

As a company whose ultimate goal is to make MRIs accessible everywhere, we put diversity and inclusion at the forefront of our mission statement. As we head towards the next growth stage of our company, we hope to set the right diversity and inclusion goals and diversify our network through engagement with the Women TechEU program.
