In the latest publication from Yale New Haven Hospital, reviewed by Linda DeVries and Kornelia Kreiser, looking at the clinical impact of the Embrace point-of-care scanner, researchers “confirmed the feasibility of the Embrace point-of-care 1-Tesla scanner for imaging in the NICU setting.” The paper concludes “In comparing the point-of-care 1-Tesla Embrace MRI with other imaging modalities, [the researchers] demonstrated the advantages of point-of-care 1-Tesla brain MRI over ultrasound in detecting small early ischemic changes and parenchymal microhemorrhage.”

Research from Mass General Brigham Hospital in Boston, MA, recently published in the Journal of Perinatology, illustrates the value of having the Embrace Neonatal MRI in the NICU to provide information without the stress and risk of moving babies out of the NICU.
Infant born by spontaneous vaginal delivery was admitted to the NICU and diagnosed with Gram Negative E. coli sepsis. A non-sedated MRI was completed on Day of Life 15, using the Embrace® Neonatal MRI System located inside the NICU.
After severe encephalopathy was noted following delivery, an early MRI scan was completed using the Embrace® Neonatal MRI System on Day of Life 1, while the infant was still undergoing therapeutic hypothermia to determine the extent of brain injury.
