New strategic partnership with Ovidius Medical expands MRIguidance’s European presence

BoneMRI is now available in the UK market and is commercialized by Ovidius Medical.

Utrecht, March 22, 2022 – MRIguidance partners with Ovidius Medical to deliver to the UK healthcare market radiation-free BoneMRI to visualise and characterise bone structures using only MRI technology.

Ovidius’s expertise is developing market access pathways and commercialising novel medical devices and technologies in spine, orthopeadic and neurosurgery for the UK.

“This collaboration with MRIguidance will facilitate access to radiation-free diagnostic and planning imaging for patients with spine and orthopaedic pathologies. This health technology innovation will make possible, for the first time, a ‘one-stop-shop’ for both soft tissue and bone delineation imaging; easing the burden of the current imaging workflow we see in the UK market. This truly remarkable technology will have a far-reaching positive impact on patient outcomes, and we look forward to making it accessible to clinicians and patients.” Joanna Jarvis (CEO and Co-Founder of Ovidius Medical Ltd)

 

“For the past years, at MRIguidance we have combined human and artificial intelligence to exploit hidden data from MRI to obtain 3D CT-like images. These are ideal to assist the diagnosis, monitoring and treatment planning of orthopaedic conditions in adult patients without changing the regular clinical workflow.

We are very excited to extend access of BoneMRI in the UK so healthcare professionals, OEM’s and patients can benefit from this technology.” Peter Seevinck (iCEO/CSO and Co-Founder of MRIguidance)

BoneMRI will be showcased in the UK for the first time during the British Association of Spine Surgeons (BASS) meeting held in Belfast from March 23-25 2022. Marijn van Stralen, co-founder and CTO at MRIguidance, will present: “BoneMRI – Harnessing the Power of Artificial Intelligence to Deliver Zero Radiation Bone Imaging.”

Utrecht, February 2026 – MRIguidance has released a new update to BoneMRI, making the solution easier to use across the hospital workflow while expanding compatibility with scanners, systems, and IT environments.

A key feature of the release is new stitching functionality, which allows clinicians to generate combined anatomical regions of e.g. the cervical, thoracic and lumbar spine, into a single, continuous image, providing total spine views. This enables assessment of pathology across multiple spinal regions without switching between image series, which might improve clinical confidence by visualizing anatomical relationships in one comprehensive view, and reduce interpretation time by eliminating manual cross-referencing between sub-regions.

The update also introduces extended compatibility across imaging platforms and infrastructure. BoneMRI now supports pelvic region imaging across the full range of GE, Siemens, and Philips MRI scanners at both 1.5T and 3T. In addition, the software expands support for Enhanced DICOM processing and is now compatible with Windows Server 2025 OS via the MRIguidance Gateway.

These improvements enhance interoperability with MRI scanners and DICOM inputs, simplify coordination with hospital IT departments, and broaden anatomical and vendor coverage to support smoother clinical adoption.

The release also includes additional support and security enhancements.

The latest BoneMRI update benefits radiologists, MR technologists, IT teams, and surgeons, further strengthening BoneMRI’s role in efficient, radiation-free bone imaging across clinical workflows.
