The Swoop® Portable MR Imaging® system shows
faster time-to-scan compared to conventional MRI and good
specificity in emergency stroke care
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 the presentation of
interim data supporting the role portable ultra-low-field MRI can
play in acute stroke workup in a hospital emergency department
setting.
The findings from the study, titled Interim Analysis from Single
Centre Observational Study of Ultra-Low Field Portable MRI in Acute
Stroke Diagnostic Workup, were presented by Keith Muir, MD, of the
University of Glasgow, during a scientific session at the 2024
European Society of Neuroradiology (ESNR) Annual Meeting.
This study, which includes a subset of patients from phase one
of the prospective, international, multi-site ACTION PMR (Acute
Ischemic Stroke Detection with Portable MR) study, analyzed images
from the ultra-low-field Swoop® MR brain imaging system to assess
the system’s performance in acute care stroke workup as compared to
the current standard of care. The analysis compared time-to-scan,
diagnostic performance, specificity, and patient experience between
ultra-low-field MRI, conventional MRI, and head CT.
Key findings showed that the Swoop® system was dramatically
faster than conventional MRI, with a median time-to-scan of 2.5
hours compared to 27.7 hours. The data also demonstrated
reliability in acute stroke diagnosis with comparable diagnostic
performance compared to head CT and good specificity when compared
to routine clinical MRI (1.5T). Further, nearly all patients
reported a positive experience with the Swoop® system.
The conclusion states, “This interim analysis demonstrates that
the portable [ultra-low-field] MRI system is a promising tool for
the acute stroke diagnostic workup in an emergency department
setting. The improved time to imaging compared to routine MRI could
facilitate quicker decision-making in acute stroke management.
Additionally, the high tolerance rate among patients underscores
its potential usability in a clinical environment. The findings
suggest that portable [ultra-low-field] MRI could enhance stroke
diagnosis accessibility and efficiency, particularly in settings
where conventional MRI availability is limited.”
Dr. Edmond Knopp, Vice President of Medical Affairs at
Hyperfine, commented, “Being at ESNR in Paris this year and
showcasing our Swoop® system, we witnessed the growing interest and
enthusiasm across the European neuroradiology community. This
excitement was most notable when the attendees had the opportunity
to see the system up close and personal. We were very pleased with
Dr. Muir and his team’s participation in the ACTION PMR stroke
study, and it was great to have Dr. Muir share exceptional data
acquired during the study. Their findings highlight the potential
of the Swoop® system’s clinical impact in improving stroke
diagnosis and treatment.”

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.
