Magdeburg, September 25, 2024: It's a well-known story, but we love sharing it. The Beatles' record label, EMI, through its research division EMI Medical, played a significant role in the development of the first MRI technology. In the 1970s, Sir Godfrey Hounsfield, an engineer at EMI, developed the CT scanner, which earned him the Nobel Prize in Medicine in 1979, shared with Allan Cormack. Building on the success of the CT scanner, EMI Medical began exploring MRI technology. While they weren't solely responsible for its invention, their contributions were crucial in the development and commercialization of MRI. The first commercial full-body MRI scanner was introduced in the early 1980s and changed medical diagnostics forever. In short—no Beatles, no EMI Medical; no EMI Medical, no MRI in hospitals! Fast forward to today—just like EMI did back then, we're on the brink of revolutionizing healthcare with our neo315. Imagine all the infants now benefiting from radiation-free diagnostics directly in the pediatric unit!
