The FDA has cleared the 510(k) approval for NextMR, a cloud-based AI platform by MRI2CT that converts standard 1.5T and 3T spine MRIs into detailed 3D bone visualizations within 60 seconds, improving surgical planning without additional imaging.

This Wire brief sits within Fusion42's coverage of Medtech, and 3 sources have reported it between 7 Oct 2026 and 8 Oct 2026.

◆ ◆ The Wire takeaway

You can now replace extra CT scans with AI-generated 3D spine images from existing MRIs, cutting patient exposure to radiation and speeding surgical workflows. This opens a clear route to integrate AI into radiology tools without heavy new hardware costs.
