Abstract
A few years ago, one of our MRI technologists went into a supply closet in the neurosciences intensive care unit (NICU) and discovered a portable head-only 0.064-T MRI scanner that uses a resistive magnet powered by a standard power outlet. Colleagues and I in the Department of Radiology and Biomedical Imaging were not pleased that no one had told us that this novel device was being used in the NICU for an industry-sponsored institutional review board–approved protocol. It was developed by a local company, and the principal investigator was a neurologist.
