MRI2CT has obtained FDA 510(k) clearance for NextMR, an AI platform that generates 3D bone visualizations of the lumbar spine and sacrum from standard MRI scans, enabling MRI-only spine workflows without additional radiation exposure.

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 build AI tools for spinal imaging that cut out CT scans and radiation by using routine MRIs. This clearance means surgeons are open to new MRI-based planning apps that speed care and reduce patient harm.
