About Advanced Imaging Resarch, Inc.

Advanced Imaging Research, Inc (aka AIRI) was founded in 1996 in Cleveland, Ohio. AIRI specializes in developing hardware and software accessories for magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and spectroscopy (MRS), routinely used in the diagnosis and prognosis of illnesses. Our products are sold to customers directly or in-directly through OEMs.

Specifically, AIRI is engaged in the research & development, engineering and manufacturing of novel radio-frequency (RF) coils for MRI/MRS of the adult and pediatric populations. Several of the r&d designs that have come to fruition are offered as products worldwide. In addition, AIRI is engaged in the r&d and distribution of the first commercially available MR Compatible Incubator System offered to the radiology and pediatric markets worldwide. Our products (except the ones solely used for research) are offered with appropriate regulatory and compliance approvals to markets worldwide. Please note occasionally, AIRI assists the university based NMR community with specialty hardware needed to perform human/animal research. We also serve as a marketing conduit for university-based research and technology developments.

Advanced Imaging's high-resolution RF coil products offer these benefits:

Greater visual clarity for doctors in diagnosing MRI images
Improved ergonomics to increase patient comfort
Increased patient throughput

Our advanced RF technologies provide improved signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) and uniformity, which in turn permit higher resolution imaging. Our devices yield enhanced images that assist the clinician in the diagnosis of disease. Higher resolution images obtained in shorter scan times reduce patient discomfort and concomitantly increase throughput in an MR scanner.

AIRI's research & development is funded in part by Small Business Innovative Research (SBIR) grants from the National Institutes of Health (NIH), Washington, D.C. We gratefully acknowledge this support. The NIH grants allow us to develop advanced sophisticated RF coils and associated circuitry, which upon rigorous testing and evaluation transform to newer advanced products, which form a portion of the core technology. Other ideas and designs developed based on the market need are also brought to fruition through systematic design, testing and evaluation through collaborations with institutions worldwide. Some of our novel concepts and advanced designs are patented, the others remain proprietary information of Advanced Imaging Research.
