The Center’s Academic Director, Dr. Moti Freiman from the Dept. of Biomedical Engineering, said: “Many researchers at the Technion have been waiting for the arrival of this essential research tool since up until now they have relied on other MRI centers in the country to conduct their research.”

Dr. Freiman added that “the device will be available to researchers from a wide range of fields at the Technion and the surrounding area and will also be used by industrial entities seeking to deepen their ability in research and development through MRI.”
