GUILFORD, Conn., March 17, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Hyperfine, Inc.

"This year, we are planning two AI-powered software launches, with image quality approaching that of high-field. 2025 will be a tale of two halves, starting the year with commercial activity mainly in our U.S. critical care business and by the end of the year, we expect to be actively selling into several sites of care in the hospital setting, neurology offices and into more international markets."
Recent Achievements and Business Highlights

About Hyperfine, Inc. and the Swoop(R) Portable MR Imaging(R) System
Hyperfine, Inc. (Nasdaq: HYPR) is the groundbreaking health technology company that has redefined brain imaging with the Swoop(R) system--the first U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA)-cleared, portable, ultra-low-field, magnetic resonance brain imaging system capable of providing imaging at multiple points of professional care. The mission of Hyperfine, Inc. is to revolutionize patient care globally through transformational, accessible, clinically relevant diagnostic imaging. Founded by Dr. Jonathan Rothberg in a technology-based incubator called 4Catalyzer, Hyperfine, Inc. scientists, engineers, and physicists developed the Swoop(R) system out of a passion for redefining brain imaging methodology and how clinicians can apply accessible diagnostic imaging to patient care. For more information, visit hyperfine.io.
The Swoop(R) Portable MR Imaging(R) system is 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(R) system also has CE Mark in the European Union and UKCA Mark in the United Kingdom. The Swoop(R) system is commercially available in a select number of international markets.
