Intended Use
The E-scan XQ is intended for diagnostic nuclear magnetic resonance imaging of the hip, knee, ankle, foot, shoulder, elbow, wrist, hand, calf, thigh, arm and forearm. The device produces transverse, sagittal, coronal and oblique cross-sectional images, displaying the internal structure of the limbs and joints being imaged. The images that are produced correspond to the spatial distribution of protons (hydrogen nuclei) that check the magnetic resonance properties and depend upon the MR parameters (spin-lattice relaxation time (T1), spin-spin relaxation time (T2), nuclei density, flow velocity and chemical shift). If interpreted by a medical expert, these images can provide diagnostically useful information.
Device Story
E-Scan XQ is a magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) system for extremity diagnostics. Device captures proton density and relaxation signals (T1, T2) to generate cross-sectional images (transverse, sagittal, coronal, oblique) of limbs and joints. Operated by trained medical professionals in clinical settings. Output images are interpreted by medical experts to assess internal anatomical structures, aiding in clinical diagnosis. System provides non-invasive visualization of musculoskeletal tissues.
Clinical Evidence
No clinical data provided; substantial equivalence is based on technological characteristics and intended use compared to predicate devices.
Technological Characteristics
Magnetic resonance diagnostic device; produces cross-sectional images based on proton spatial distribution, T1/T2 relaxation times, nuclei density, flow velocity, and chemical shift. System is designed for extremity imaging.
Indications for Use
Indicated for diagnostic nuclear magnetic resonance imaging of the hip, knee, ankle, foot, shoulder, elbow, wrist, hand, calf, thigh, arm, and forearm in patients requiring cross-sectional imaging of limbs and joints.
Regulatory Classification
Identification
A magnetic resonance diagnostic device is intended for general diagnostic use to present images which reflect the spatial distribution and/or magnetic resonance spectra which reflect frequency and distribution of nuclei exhibiting nuclear magnetic resonance. Other physical parameters derived from the images and/or spectra may also be produced. The device includes hydrogen-1 (proton) imaging, sodium-23 imaging, hydrogen-1 spectroscopy, phosphorus-31 spectroscopy, and chemical shift imaging (preserving simultaneous frequency and spatial information).
Special Controls
*Classification.* Class II (special controls). A magnetic resonance imaging disposable kit intended for use with a magnetic resonance diagnostic device only is exempt from the premarket notification procedures in subpart E of part 807 of this chapter subject to the limitations in § 892.9.
