Intended Use

The MR Instruments TEM 3000 Head Coil is intended for high-resolution whole-head adult and pediatric imaging. Typical applications include functional MRI, spectroscopy and angiography. It is compatible with the Siemens 3T Magnetom Trio MR System (K021330).

Device Story

TEM 3000 Head Coil is a 15-element quadrature transmit/receive RF coil for MRI systems; used for high-resolution imaging of brain, soft tissues, and vasculature. Device consists of coil elements and circuitry in a rigid housing with an open viewing window and a head support/coil base for patient positioning. Operates by receiving/transmitting RF signals within a Siemens 3T Magnetom Trio MR scanner. Employs Transverse Electromagnetic (TEM) technology using distributed components to generate RF fields, offering efficiency at high frequencies. Used in clinical settings by radiologists and MRI technicians. Output is raw MR signal data processed by the host scanner into diagnostic images; assists clinicians in diagnosing neurological conditions and vascular pathologies. Benefits patients through improved image quality and comfort during head scans.

Clinical Evidence

No clinical data. Bench testing only.

Technological Characteristics

15-element quadrature transmit/receive RF coil. Employs Transverse Electromagnetic (TEM) technology with distributed components. Rigid housing with open viewing window and head support base. Compatible with Siemens 3T Magnetom Trio MR systems. No software or algorithm components.

Indications for Use

Indicated for high-resolution whole-head imaging of the brain, soft tissues, and vasculature in adult and pediatric patients. Compatible with Siemens 3T Magnetom Trio MR systems.

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.

Date Cleared: | July 25, 2002 | #### D. Description of the Device The TEM 3000 Head Coil is a 15-element quadrature transmit/receive coil. The coil elements and associated circuitry are enclosed in a rigid housing to prevent any exposure to patient or environment. The coil housing employs a large open viewing window on the top. The coil design facilitates the scanning of patients with different window on the top: "Ifizes patient comfort and ease of use. Included with the coil housing is a Head Support/Coil Base. It allows the coil to be slid back for better patient access. #### E. Intended Use Statement The MR Instruments TEM 3000 Head Coil is intended for 'H high-resolution whole-I head adult and pediatric imaging. Typical applications include functional MRI, spectroscopy and angiography. It is compatible with the Siemens 3T Magnetom Trio MR System (K021330). ## F. Technological Characteristics Summary The TEM 3000 Head coil is similar to the predicate device, the USA Instruments 3T head coil manufactured for the Siemens Magnetom Trio system, in regard to its construction and operation. The key difference is the use of TEM (Transverse Electromagnetic) technology rather than the commonly used "Birdcage" technology. This means the coil develops the necessary RF field using "distributed" (transmission I mis momis the con as a responsible or discrete components. As a result, the TEM coil has the potential of being more efficient at higher frequencies. {2}------------------------------------------------ Image /page/2/Picture/2 description: The image shows the logo for the Department of Health & Human Services USA.
