Weight-Bearing Weight-Bearing MRI is an advanced imaging technique primed to transform musculoskeletal diagnostics. Unlike conventional supine MRIs, the upright G-scan Open MRI technology allows patients to assume weight-bearing positions during scanning, providing a true-to-life assessment of their condition under natural physiological load. With Weight- Bearing MRI, clinicians gain unparalleled insight into spinal pathologies such as disc herniation and spinal stenosis, as well as precise evaluation of joint abnormalities affecting Supine the knees, hips, and ankles. By capturing the body...

Q-Spine Q-Spine is a support tool developed to visualize and quantify biomechanical changes when performing both weight-bearing and supine scanning during a lumbar spine examination. Based on the semiautomatic segmentation of the spine structures, Q-Spine serves as a valuable resource to improve confidence in diagnosing spine diseases and pre-surgical planning. Key features include: • Numerical quantification that detects relative changes of different spine abnormalities such as Listhesis Index, spine canal section, and vertebral collapse. Virtual navigation inside the spinal canal. Spinal...
