BoneMRI is an image processing software that can be used for image enhancement in MRI images. It can be used to visualize the bone structures in MRI images with increased contrast with respect to the surrounding soft tissue. It is to be used in the pelvic region, which includes the bony anatomy of the sacrum, hip bones and the spine, which includes the bony anatomy of the cervical, thoracic, lumbar, and S1 vertebrae. BoneMRI is indicated for use in patients 12 years and older. BoneMRI is not to be used for diagnosis or monitoring of (primary or metastatic) tumors. BoneMRI images are not intended to replace CT images in general but can be used to visualize 3D bone morphology, tissue radiodensity and tissue radiodensity contrast.

The BoneMRI application is a standalone image processing software application that analyses 3D gradient echo MRI scans acquired with a dedicated MRI scan protocol. From the analysis of the gradient echo MRI scan, 3D tomographic radiodensity contrast images, called BoneMRI images, are constructed. The BoneMRI images can be used to visualize the bone structures in MR images with enhanced contrast with respect to the surrounding soft tissue. The application is designed to be used by imaging experts, such as radiologists or orthopedic surgeons, typically in a physician's office. The BoneMRI application is a server application running on the clinic or hospital networks. It is available as fully on-premise software with specific GPU hardware requirements, or partly running as a managed cloud service, for which the environment in which the managed modules run is controlled by MRIguidance. The on-premise software is fully controlled by the clinic or hospital, and as such, no protected health information (PHI) will leave the clinic or hospital network. All data sent to the managed cloud server will be de-identified before it leaves the clinic or hospital network, and as such, the managed cloud service will not receive PHI. Within the hospital network, the application communicates with a DICOM compatible imaging archive (e.g., a PACS) to receive input MRI and to return BoneMRI images. Reading of the resulting BoneMRI images is performed using regular DICOM compatible medical image viewing software. The BoneMRI application uses an algorithm to detect bone images from MRIs obtained using a specific gradient echo acquisition sequence. The algorithm training sets included images from multiple clinical sites, multiple anatomies, and multiple scanners to ensure that the trained algorithm was robust with respect to the approved indications for use. None of the data used in the training dataset was used subsequently in the validation dataset.

BoneMRI is an image processing software that can be used for image enhancement in MRI images. It can be used to visualize the bone structures in MRI images with enhanced contrast with surrounding soft tissue. It is to be used in the pelvic region, which includes the bony anatomy of the sacrum, hip bones and femoral heads; and the lumbar spine region, which includes the bony anatomy of the vertebrae from L3 to S1. BoneMRI is not to be used for diagnosis or monitoring of (primary or metastatic) tumors. Warning: BoneMRI images are not intended to replace CT images.
