Did anyone see last night's health segment on NBC. They presented a noninvasive "cardiac testing machine" that is based on MRI technology. Will this become a problem for IMAT. Right now there are only 8 of these MRI machines in the world, and MRIs are still more expensive than CTs, however the lack of radiation would certainly be a plus for individuals that require multiple scans.
Maybe the market is big enough for there to be room for both technologies, and the increased awareness is good for IMAT also.

Any thoughts anyone?
