Farum, Denmark โ€” January 7, 2026

MagVentureยฎ, the global leader in non-invasive Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) technology, announces the acquisition of Brain Science Tools (BST), a Netherlands-based company specializing in neuronavigation and MRI-based imaging software. The acquisition strengthens MagVentureโ€™s long-term strategy for expanding navigation capabilities within its TMS ecosystem and supports the continued development of MagVenture TMS Atlasยฎ, MagVentureโ€™s proprietary neuronavigation platform.

MagVenture has acquired 100 percent of BST, including all associated intellectual property. The acquisition deepens the companiesโ€™ long-standing collaboration and brings BSTโ€™s highly specialized software, imaging, and navigation expertise directly into MagVentureโ€™s global R&D organization.

For more than four years, MagVenture and BST have collaborated closely to co-develop Atlas, now an established MagVenture neuronavigation system used in both clinical and research environments. BSTโ€™s background in neuroimaging, software engineering, and navigation technology has played a central role in shaping Atlas into a precise, stable, and user-oriented platform.

โ€œBST has been an essential partner throughout the development of Atlas,โ€ said Christian Wanding, CCO at MagVenture. โ€œBringing our teams together is a natural next step that allows us to deepen and accelerate the innovation we have already established. By uniting MagVentureโ€™s leadership in TMS with BSTโ€™s proven strengths in neuronavigation and imaging software, we strengthen our ability to deliver precise, intuitive tools that support clinicians and advance modern neuroscience.โ€
