This advancement is Hyperfine’s second FDA-cleared software package since the launch of its next-generation Swoop system in mid-2025. It builds on Hyperfine’s Optive AI software to deliver even higher image quality in challenging clinical environments, a more intuitive scanning experience for Swoop system operators, and a new imaging sequence for three-dimensional visualization—further extending the clinical value of the Swoop system across care settings.

Since the Swoop system does not require the shielding that conventional high-field MRI systems depend on, it can scan in electromagnetically noisy environments, such as intensive care units and emergency departments, without sacrificing image quality. This latest advancement in Optive AI software takes Hyperfine’s proprietary noise cancellation a step further, improving noise correction across all sequences to deliver clearer, more consistent images that move closer to high-field quality, even in noisy point-of-care environments where only the Swoop system can go. The software also introduces an improved user interface with a more guided scanning workflow and lets operators view sequences and images as they're being acquired, making the system even more intuitive and easier to use.

This latest update debuts the isotropic T1 sequence, delivering thinner slices and equally high resolution across all imaging planes. This new capability is especially valuable in clinical situations where spatial visualization supports clinical assessment, such as post-operative tumor follow-up, and represents a new brain imaging capability now possible in the ultra-low field Swoop system.
