MRI in Smartphone? How?

Recommended Posts

It's a hand-held scanner, iirc. It lets you take multiple small samples of tissue for analysis rather than a single core biopsy sample (which can cause complications). The small samples are more akin to being poked with a syringe, aren't nearly as invasive, and can put together a pretty cost-effective diagnostic process. The scanner has a chip on board and uses the smartphone only as an interface for reading the results.
