Business Wire
Portable ultra-low-field MR brain imaging
provides affordable and accessible technology that may help
physicians monitor ARIA and Alzheimer's disease progression in
diverse professional care settings.
Hyperfine, Inc. (Nasdaq: HYPR), the groundbreaking health
technology company that has redefined brain imaging with the first
FDA-cleared portable magnetic resonance (MR) brain imaging
system—the Swoop® system—today announced that two presentations on
the clinical utility of portable ultra-low-field MRI for
Alzheimer's disease monitoring have been accepted in the developing
topics poster sessions at the upcoming 2024 Alzheimer’s Association
International Conference, July 28–August 1 in Philadelphia.
These presentations, submitted by clinicians from Washington
University in St. Louis, Massachusetts General Hospital, and Yale
University, highlight promising applications of portable
ultra-low-field MR imaging within the Alzheimer's care
continuum.
Conference attendees can learn more during these select
presentations:
Title: Advanced Imaging Modalities for ARIA Detection and
Treatment Efficacy Monitoring in Lecanemab Therapy for Alzheimer's
Disease: A Collaborative Prospective Study Authors:

Title: Portable, Low-field MRI for Alzheimer’s Disease
Authors: W. Taylor Kimberly MD PhD, et al.
“With the recent developments in Alzheimer’s therapies and care,
the medical community has shown tremendous interest in
incorporating portable ultra-low-field MR brain imaging into the
continuum of care for Alzheimer’s patients, taking advantage of the
system’s versatility to scan in diverse professional care settings.
We are very excited to be attending the AAIC conference for the
first time this year in Philadelphia,” said Maria Sainz, President
and CEO of Hyperfine, Inc.
Hyperfine, Inc. is committed to delivering clinical value across
the continuum of care for patients suffering from some of the most
devastating neurodegenerative diseases like Alzheimer’s and
reducing the complexity of the treatment and care management cycle
many patients face. Earlier this year, the company announced that
the first patients had been scanned in the CARE PMR (Capturing ARIA
Risk Equitably with Portable MR) study. The observational study
assesses the clinical utility and workflow benefits of acquiring
the Swoop® system images at infusion centers and clinics to help
physicians detect amyloid-related imaging abnormalities (ARIA) in
Alzheimer’s patients receiving amyloid-targeting therapy.

About the Swoop® Portable MR Imaging® System
The Swoop® Portable MR Imaging® system is U.S. Food and Drug
Administration (FDA) cleared for brain imaging of patients of all
ages. It is a portable, ultra-low-field magnetic resonance imaging
device for producing images that display the internal structure of
the head where full diagnostic examination is not clinically
practical. When interpreted by a trained physician, these images
provide information that can be useful in determining a diagnosis.
The Swoop® system also has CE certification in the European Union
and UKCA certification in the United Kingdom. The Swoop® system is
commercially available in a select number of international
markets.
About Hyperfine, Inc.
Hyperfine, Inc. (Nasdaq: HYPR) is the groundbreaking health
technology company that has redefined brain imaging with the Swoop®
system—the first FDA-cleared, portable, ultra-low-field, magnetic
resonance brain imaging system capable of providing imaging at
multiple points of care. The mission of Hyperfine, Inc. is to
revolutionize patient care globally through transformational,
accessible, clinically relevant diagnostic imaging. Founded by Dr.
Jonathan Rothberg in a technology-based incubator called
4Catalyzer, Hyperfine, Inc. scientists, engineers, and physicists
developed the Swoop® system out of a passion for redefining brain
imaging methodology and how clinicians can apply accessible
