This Metamaterial Helmet Boosts MRI Brain Scans

The device uses magnetic metamaterial resonators to get crisper images in half the time of a normal scan.

The magnetic resonance imaging, aka MRI, scanner is a seemingly magical device that lets us peer inside the human body. However, it’s sometimes difficult to obtain an image resolution good enough to identify a specific condition. A recent Medgadget article covered a new device that enhances brain images collected by MRIs, which could expand the accessibility of brain scans to remote or developing regions or the world.
