- mrandish 3mo agoUnpaywalled link to the paper: https://www.semanticscholar.org/reader/ef7ae3bff634710f871241ac8a513d72ad32688d https://www.semanticscholar.org/reader/ef7ae3bff634710f87124... This is similar only in using an array of off-axis ultrasound tomography receivers but otherwise unrelated in that it's a serious publication with detailed information demonstrating potential medical utility. Near as I could tell, Midjourney Medical is an idea for a trendy spa treatment dressed up to look sci-fi cool. It's based on a repackaging of 40 of the exact same chip in Butterfly's handheld, full contact USB pocket-sized scanner which plugs into a mobile phone and is already available. The CalTech team who wrote the Nature paper appears to be using an array of Olympus transducers equipped with their own custom lenses and a rotating emitter. Notably, the CalTech paper is focused on evaluating potential clinical benefits.
