Intended Use

The QD Head Speeder with NV Speeder Attachment is a receive-only phased array RF coil, used for obtaining diagnostic images of the brain, cervical spine, and soft tissue and vasculature of the head, neck, and upper chest in Magnetic Resonance Imaging Systems. The QD Head Speeder with NV Speeder Attachment is designed for use with the ExcelArt 1.5T MRI system manufactured by Toshiba Medical Systems, Inc. The indications for use are the same as for standard MR Imaging.

Device Story

Multi-element phased array, receive-only RF coil; consists of main coil base, sliding head section, and removable anterior coil section. Used in MRI suites with Toshiba ExcelArt 1.5T systems. Operates by receiving MR signals from hydrogen nuclei; does not transmit RF power. Decoupling via switching diodes isolates elements during RF transmission. Rigid, fire-rated plastic housing; open design minimizes claustrophobia. Output is diagnostic MR images of head, neck, and upper chest. Used by radiologists/technicians to visualize soft tissue and vasculature; aids in clinical diagnosis.

Clinical Evidence

Bench testing only. No clinical data provided. Safety and effectiveness supported by comparison to predicate devices and adherence to standard MRI coil design principles, including RF safety (decoupling) and material biocompatibility/flammability ratings.

Technological Characteristics

Receive-only phased array coil; switching diode decoupling. Materials: Flame-retardant Delrin-Acetal, Polyurethane, Vinyl Coated EVA Foam, Polycarbonate. Form factor: Multi-section (base, sliding head, removable anterior). Connectivity: Dedicated interface for Toshiba ExcelArt 1.5T MRI. Energy: Passive RF reception. No software algorithm.

Indications for Use

Indicated for patients requiring MRI of the brain, cervical spine, and soft tissue and vasculature of the head, neck, and upper chest. Used with 1.5T MRI systems to produce images based on proton density, T1, and T2 parameters for diagnostic interpretation by a physician.

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.
