Robotics For More Targeted Care, Everywhere

Introducing IGAR, the world's first and only robot FDA 510(k)-cleared for use inside an MRI

Our robotics are designed to work inside an MRI bore. The MRI suite is among the most challenging of hospital environments because the device uses strong magnetic fields and has a confined working area for physicians.

IGAR, our first robotics system, can be mounted on an MRI table and has potential applications for biopsy, therapy delivery or device placement. We're developing robotics for more targeted care everywhere.

IGAR is not currently cleared as a medical device for sale by Health Canada.

When accuracy and precision matter most

We're witnessing a new future for MRI. Technological advances in imaging, robotics and AI are making new clinical scenarios possible, making MRI more accessible for patients, radiologists and new non-radiologist users. Combined, these three areas have the potential to open greater patient access to MRI.

New MRI scanners are cheaper, smaller, and run faster scans

Portable MRI scanners offer greater clinical flexibility

Our MRI-compatible robotics can be used in-bore

With MRI-guided procedures, see, measure and adapt treatmentwhile it happens

AI tools offer better image quality and stronger interpretation aids

AI functionality may also reduce scan times, an efficiency that benefits patients

Best-in-class MRI-compatible robotics

The IGAR technology platform may be adapted for future products that could move seamlessly across different care environments, such as from an MRI to a standard operating room or into a physician’s office.

The system has been validated in the MRI environment and demonstrated in clinical studies.
