Decision

What the current evidence supports

Agent-assisted assessment · independently reviewed · 2026-09-30

Consider it for specialist neuroscience research, subject to site acceptance testing.

Why
Commercial installations support human research, but measurement reliability depends on the protocol and clinical approval remains pending.
Next
Test shielding, interference, motion and repeatability for the intended measurements; validate clinical applications separately.

Constraints

Blockers

  • No medical or regulatory approvals.
  • Requires a suitable magnetically shielded environment.
  • Reliability varies across neural measures; MMN latency performed poorly in the Zurich study.
  • Clinical biomarkers and diagnostic workflows require further validation.
  • Results from one sensor configuration may not transfer to another.
