The objective of this study is to generate MR system data, including camera and sensor accessory data, on adults to assess the potential of new MR research approaches for potentially improving the technical performance of the MRI system. The study is not intended to make medical claims or provide diagnostic evidence.

Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| The objective of this study is to generate MR system data, including camera and sensor accessory data, on adults to assess the potential of new MR research approaches for potentially improving the technical performance of the MRI system. Furthermore, the data will be used to evaluate user preference evaluations, and/or to demonstrate the capabilities of MR equipment for educational purposes. The data (e.g., imaging data) and feedback obtained during the study will be used for pre-development, image optimization, research, troubleshooting, demonstration, and training in the domain of medical imaging. | — |
