Interventional MRI Communication
Supporting the Procedure
Clear audio communication for the MRI suite supports clinicians in confidently performing complex image-guided procedures, directly inside the scanner– with increased safety and precision
Communication Breaks Down in Zone 4
Interventional MRI procedures require precise coordination between clinicians, technologists, and patients. In and around the MRI bore, extreme acoustic noise makes clear and reliable communication difficult
Over time, clinicians have been resourceful in developing their individual techniques to help overcome this communication barrier– often relying on hand signals, repeated scan pauses, or indirect communication through technologists outside the scanner room. EERS aims to relieve that burden by giving the MRI suite a voice– a clear and dependable two-way communication system.
Within the MRI suite, communication is critical– without it there can be many set-backs:
• Slowing down procedures
• Increase patient stress/anxiety
• Interrupting workflow
• Limiting the scope of interventional procedures performed
As interventional MRI continues to expand into new clinical areas, reliable communication is more essential than ever before
Clear Communication Where It Matters Most
The system captures voice from inside the ear canal and uses advanced noise filtering and patented signal reconstruction to deliver the first true two-way communication platform built specifically for MRI.
In-Ear Voice Capture
With EERS technology, the voice audio is captured from within the ear canal, avoiding the sound disruption of the MRI environment
AI-Driven Noise Cancellation
Using cutting edge technology, the EERS system minimizes unnecessary abrasive noise from inside and around the MRI bore
Patented Voice Reconstruction
EERS technology captures and reconstructs voice audio to deliver clean and reliable communication even within extreme noise environments over 100 dBA
Proven Reliability
Validated by Mayo Clinic; testing has shown that using the EERS system does not negatively affect the MRI images integrity or reliability
System Agnostic
EERS connects with existing MRI systems for quick and effortless implementation with OEMs and hospital AV stacks via API
The result: EERS now delivers cutting edge two-way communication in and around the MRI– one of the most audibly challenging environments in medicine
True Two-Way Voice Pickup Inside the MRI Bore
Traditional MRI communication systems deliver sound to the patient, but cannot capture voice clearly from inside the scanner
EERS is the only system designed to capture, filter, and reconstruct voice directly from the ear canal, enabling true two-way communication inside the MRI bore.
Powered by patented technology, and backed by years of research and development, EERS is proud to introduce a new communication standard into the MRI environment– built to aid the efficiency and precision of interventional procedures:
● Cardiac Interventional MRI
● Biopsy Procedures
● Ablation Treatments
Expanding the Possibilities
MRI-guided interventions continue to grow across cardiology, oncology, and minimally invasive treatments. As these procedures evolve, reliable communication inside the MRI bore will become an integral part of the infrastructure
EERS enables clinicians to communicate clearly during procedures — unlocking new possibilities for MRI-guided medicine
