Device Description: The Insight Head Coil is a quadrature transmitting and receiving device for use in magnetic resonance imaging of the head regions. This device incorporates advanced radio frequency technology housed in a closed, ergonomic package with many patient friendly features including a shorter coil length so that no part of the coil will be over the patients eyes, nose or mouth. The materials of construction and components are all identical to the predicate devices. The tubular shaped coil is 13" OD x 9.9" ID x 10" L with a section removed from the bottom that is 60° of the coil circumference and 2" deep. The coil is attached to 2 rails that allow it to slide back and away from the patient, and then to be positioned with the patients head inside the tubular device. The back and sides of the coil will be placed over the center of the ears of the patient while the cut out front edge will be placed parallel with the eye brows. The outer surfaces of the coil are manufactured from painted plastic polymer materials. These materials have been found to be biologically inert. These materials are routinely used in medical device construction and can be cleaned using mild bleach or alcohol as the customers will be instructed to do so.
