Overview: In this workshop, we will describe and discuss the current state of development of our low-cost MRI system. This system leverages existing open-source designs engineered to make medical imaging more accessible, especially in low-resource settings. Our team will showcase the design and manufacturing of various components: main field, gradient coils and amplifiers, RF coil and amplifier, shimming, and the console.

Registration is open until all available spaces are filled.
