Rady Childrens Hospital San Diego Installs Its First Patented MRI BoreCam
United States, 1st Aug 2025 – Sound Imaging, a leading MRI product development firm, has successfully installed its patented MRI BoreCam System at Rady Children’s Hospital–San Diego, located at 3020 Children’s Way, MC5072, San Diego, CA 92123. Developed in collaboration with top MRI safety experts, the MRI BoreCam enhances MRI Patient Safety, reduces institutional liability, and supports technologists with real-time visual monitoring.
Sound Imaging’s MRI BoreCam is an MRI-safe CCTV patient video surveillance system specifically designed for the MRI environment. Its high-definition, RF-shielded cameras mount inside the magnet room to capture clear video without introducing image artifacts. The live feed streams to an HD LED monitor in the control room, allowing technologists to observe the patient continuously. With the optional DVR upgrade, every moment of the exam is recorded—providing crucial documentation for both liability protection and staff training.
A New Era of MRI Safety
Developed in partnership with leading MRI safety and pediatric imaging experts, the MRI BoreCam System ushers in a new standard for MRI Patient Safety and staff efficiency. By combining continuous high-definition surveillance, in-room motion alert integration, and robust recording capabilities, BoreCam ensures that every second of the scan is observed, documented, and acted upon—eliminating blind spots and elevating patient care to its highest level.

Disclaimer: The MRI BoreCam system is intended to supplement, not replace, direct patient care. It must be used in conjunction with standard monitoring and safety procedures.
