Leading the way with greater insight and better care solutions.
MR imaging provides critical data insights with greater clarity and precision than ultrasound, allowing for more informed and accurate clinical care decisions. When it comes to critically-ill or premature infants, however, use of this powerful diagnostic tool has been limited due to the potential risks and complexity of transporting these extremely vulnerable patients to Radiology for scanning…until now.
With the patient-focused Embrace® Neonatal MRI System, quality diagnostic imaging can be performed inside the
NICU, while the patient remains safe and comfortable in their care environment. This revolutionary, point of care imaging system

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.
The Embrace® Neonatal MRI System is specifically designed to keep babies safe and warm in their care environment, while simplifying the entire imaging process for the care team. Click below and see for yourself how the Embrace® compares to current scanning methods, eliminating the need for special equipment, extensive preparation and high-risk, off-unit patient transport.
Point-of- care MRI for NICU patients is a real game changer.
We have devised these short 60-second videos to give you a better understanding of this powerful diagnostic imaging tool and to learn how MR imaging can support your efforts to deliver the best care possible for your NICU patients.
