Imricor Collaborates with GE HealthCare
in Interventional Cardiac MRI
Under the terms of the MOU, GE HealthCare and Imricor intend to
collaborate to interface Imricor’s Advantage-MR EP
Recorder/Stimulator and Northstar-MR 3D Mapping System with GE
HealthCare MRI scanners. A successful collaboration will enable
cardiac electrophysiology (EP) ablation procedures guided by
real-time MRI, using Imricor’s catheters and other disposable
devices, to be performed on the GE HealthCare MRI platform. The
collaboration with GE HealthCare would expand Imricor’s potential
to interface with GE HealthCare’s new and currently installed MRI
scanners.
Imricor’s short-term goal is to allow sites with GE HealthCare
MRI systems to participate in the upcoming “Vision-MR
Ablation of Atrial FLutter” or VISABL-AFL
clinical trial in the US and “Vision-MR Ablation of
Ventricular Tachycardia” or VISABL-VT clinical trial
in Europe. The Company’s overall goal is to broaden in the choices
physicians and hospitals have when choosing an MRI platform for
their iCMR labs.
“Imricor’s innovative technology has the potential to bring
significant benefit to a large number of cardiac arrhythmia
patients,” said Anja Brau, PhD, General Manager, GE HealthCare MR
Clinical Solutions and Research Collaborations. “GE HealthCare has
a long-standing history of applying MR to therapy guidance and
control; we would be pleased to add Imricor’s capabilities to
provide our customers with more options to treat their
patients.”
“We are thrilled at the prospect of expanding the portfolio of
MRI scanners that support Advantage-MR and Northstar-MR
technology,” said Steve Wedan, Imricor’s CEO and Chair. “The
addition of GE HealthCare will give physicians and hospitals
significantly more flexibility to use the MRI hardware of their
choice, when providing real-time iCMR ablations for their patients.
We are grateful to our existing customers who have embraced our
real-time iCMR ablation technology, and look forward to making the
benefits of this technology even more widely available.”
