CASE STUDY

The Low-Field Imaging Laboratory at Harvard Medical School is on the forefront of reducing the cost of medical imaging using Machine Learning .

Magnetic Resonance Imaging ( MRI ) is the gold standard of biomedical imaging , enabling doctors to understand structures and processes within the body that were not possible decades ago , but MRI scanners
ABOUT RETROSPECT today still require large superconducting magnets for high-resolution imaging .
At the lab , new applications of supervised learning enable it to reduce the costs of MRI machines by several orders of magnitude , enabling more affordable high-resolution imaging with reduced size at new point-of-care locations . Machine Learning requires huge quantities of data to analyze and extract relevant models . The lab must manage 80 TB of data as well as the protection of 20 laptops , desktops and servers in different parts of the building .
Protecting 100 Petabytes in over 500,000 homes and businesses in over 100 countries , Retrospect is dedicated to providing reliable backup and recovery tools for professionals and businesses with Retrospect Backup and Retrospect Virtual , covering physical servers and endpoints , virtual environments and business applications . With three decades of field-tested expertise , Retrospect meets the needs of organizations that require the highest level of recoverability . Retrospect is a member of the StorCentric family of brands .
Heterogeneous environment
The lab uses Retrospect Backup Single Server Unlimited to protect its entire environment . With Retrospect , the lab can protect its large servers , various desktop machines , roaming laptops and NAS storage from a Mac Mini .
