Expression of Interest (EOI) for Transfer of Technology (ToT) of 1.5 Tesla Indigenous Magnetic Resonance Imaging (IMRI) system
The Society for Applied Microwave Electronics Engineering & Research (SAMEER) is an autonomous Research & Development institution under the Ministry of Electronics and Information Technology (MeitY), Government of India. SAMEER carries out application-oriented research and technology development in the areas of RF & Microwave Engineering, Medical Electronics, Medical Linear Accelerators, Electromagnetic
Compatibility (EMI/EMC), Photonics, Antennas, Communication Systems, Radar Systems, Thermal Engineering and associated software technologies.
The Indigenous Magnetic Resonance Imaging (IMRI) Programme, initiated under the aegis of the Ministry of Electronics & Information Technology (MeitY), Government of India, and implemented by SAMEER in collaboration with C-DAC and IUAC, has resulted in the indigenous development and integration of several critical technologies required for a 1.5 Tesla MRI system, including RF coils, high-power RF amplifier, FPGA-based spectrometer, control and monitoring systems, pulse sequences, image reconstruction/visualization software, patient couch, and superconducting magnet technologies.
The objective of this Expression of Interest (EOI) is to identify technically competent and financially sound Indian industries for Transfer of Technology (ToT) and commercialization of the indigenous 1.5 Tesla whole-body MRI Scanner developed by the IMRI Consortium under the IMRI Programme. The selected industry shall undertake technology absorption, product engineering, manufacturing, system integration, testing, regulatory compliance, commercial production, deployment, and lifecycle support, with technical handholding from the IMRI Consortium.

Specifically, the EOI seeks participation from Indian industries interested in:
- Acquiring and absorbing the IMRI technology developed by the IMRI Consortium through a structured ToT process;
- Manufacturing and demonstration of 1.5T clinical scanner using IMRI technology with hand holding by the IMRI consortium
