MidJourney just announced... a full body ultrasound! Yup... read on because it's as crazy as it sounds.
"As powerful as MRI and as casual as a trip to the spa"
They are calling it "the
@midjourney scanner"
Insane details:
- First, the scale. The device uses 8,960 individual transducers arranged in a ring around your body
- The precision is the most jaw-dropping part: it resolves motion at the picometer range. It can image internal tissues finer than the width of an atom. We are talking sub-atomic level diagnostic capability
- The compute requirement is massive. The system processes 17 gigabytes of data per second.
It takes 40GB of raw data to reconstruct just one cross-sectional slice. And they are planning to scan 100 slices?
- Midjourney claims that fewer than 12 of these machines could perform more full-body scans than every MRI machine on Earth combined.
Welcome to the future of healthcare!
Not only these scanners are announced, they will exist in a "Midjourney SPA" - with hot tubs, saunas, cold plunges, and 9-10 whole body scanners.
