HeartVista Teams With Siemens Healthineers for Cardiac MRI Exams

California’s HeartVista has teamed with Germany-based Siemens Healthineers to co-market an automated cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) imaging exam platform that takes up less scanner time and requires no additional training for technicians.

HeartVista received FDA 510(k) clearance last November for its artificial intelligence-assisted One Click MRI acquisition software to run on Siemens Healthineers MRI scanners. The previous version of the software forced users to choose between One Click MRI and the sequences in the scanner, creating a barrier to market adoption, said HeartVista CEO Itamar Kandel.

HeartVista has updated its software to allow users to combine its functions with those in the Siemens Healthineers MRI scanners.
