SAN DIEGO, CA – April 2024 – Sound Imaging, a pioneering MRI product development firm, is pleased to announce the successful installation of its patent-pending MRI Room Alert System at Sonoma Valley Hospital in Sonoma, California. This major advancement in MRI safety leverages cutting-edge, voice-activated technology to enhance patient and staff security.
Customer Testimonial
“Our new MRI is located away from the main Imaging department, so we needed a dependable way for staff to contact someone if assistance was required or in case of an emergency. The MRI Room Alert system successfully met this need, and we were particularly impressed with its hands-free, voice-activated feature. The team at Sound Imaging was professional and supportive, and the installation process went smoothly.”
