MRE | Magnetic Resonance Elastography

The Magnetic Resonance Elastography (MRE) System brings soft tissue and material characterization to compact, accessible MRI technology. This system enables precise measurement of tissue stiffness and viscoelastic properties through advanced MRI-based elastography techniques.

By combining high-performance imaging with controlled mechanical vibration, the system generates detailed elasticity maps, providing valuable insights into biomechanics, cancer diagnostics, and structural integrity analysis. Whether used for non-invasive tissue characterization, polymer research, or quality control in industrial materials, the Benchtop MRE System offers unparalleled versatility and precision.

  • Non-invasive tissue characterization
  • Elasticity mapping
  • tissue stiffness mapping
  • Diffusion weighted imaging (DWI))
