The Open MRI market is a subset of the Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) industry. Open MRI scanners are designed to provide a more comfortable experience for patients, as they are open on all sides and do not require the patient to be enclosed in a tube. Open MRI scanners are also beneficial for patients who are claustrophobic or have difficulty lying still for long periods of time. Open MRI scanners are also beneficial for imaging larger patients, as they provide a larger space for the patient to fit in.

Some companies in the Open MRI market include Hitachi Medical Systems, Siemens Healthineers, Philips Healthcare, and GE Healthcare. Show Less Read more
