A U.S.-based artificial intelligence company says it is developing a full-body scanning system capable of completing comprehensive medical imaging in under a minute, a breakthrough that could challenge conventional MRI and CT technologies by significantly reducing scan times.
The company said in a blog post that it plans to develop a device called the "Midjourney Scanner" under a new venture named "Midjourney Medical."
Midjourney said the technology is not yet a commercial product and is intended to make MRI-like imaging capabilities faster and more accessible.
The company said the system is designed to operate in a shallow water pool and aims to scan the body through a ring of ultrasonic sensors.
According to the statement, the device is planned to send ultrasound waves from different angles, record the signals returning from the body and convert the data into images through AI-supported systems.
