The principal activities of CardioMag, which was incorporated in 1999, are the design, manufacture and sale of non-invasive MCG heart function diagnostic equipment. CardioMag's MCG system integrates Superconducting Quantum Interference Devices ("SQUIDS") with advanced software and hardware to form a new diagnostic technology, providing high quality functional information on the status of a patient's heart. The MCG system measures the magnetic fields generated by the heart's electrical activity, allowing a physician to identify abnormal cardiac conduction disturbances, including those created by the presence of coronary artery disease.

The Company currently has one market ready product, the CMI 2409 system, several of which are already installed in hospitals around the world, each incorporating a cryogenic container, sensors, sensor control and digital electronic hardware, a multi-position, non-magnetic patient bed, and related software and display equipment.
