Intended Use

The GE Signa® MR Oncology Package is a patient positioning package intended for use with GE Signa® MR Systems. The Signa® MR Oncology Package when used with a Signa® MR system is a whole body magnetic resonance scanner designed to support high resolution, high signal-to-noise ratio and short scan times. The Signa® MR Oncology Package is indicated for use as a diagnostic imaging device axial, sagittal, coronal and oblique images, spectroscopic images, and/or spectra, dynamic images of the internal structures and organs of the entire body, including, but not limited to, head, neck, TMJ, spine, breast, heart, abdomen, pelvis, joints, prostate, blood vessels, and musculoskeletal regions of the body. The images produced by the Signa® MR System with Signa® MR Oncology Package reflect the spatial distribution of protons (hydrogen nuclei) exhibiting magnetic resonance. These images and/or spectra when interpreted by a trained physician yield information that may assist in diagnosis. The Signa® MR Oncology Package provides an additional patient table for Signa® MR systems that allows patients to be imaged on a flat surface. The flat patient surface enables Signa® MR systems to acquire images in patient positions similar to other modalities that also utilize a flat patient surface such as X-Ray, CT, PET, and radiation therapy. The Signa® MR system with Signa® MR Oncology Package may also be used with MR-compatible patient positioning and immobilization accessories to assist in obtaining consistent patient positions throughout multiple imaging sessions.

Device Story

GE Signa® MR Oncology Package is a patient positioning accessory for GE Signa® MR systems. It consists of a modified detachable patient table providing a flat surface, enabling patient positioning consistent with other modalities like CT, PET, and radiation therapy. Used in clinical imaging environments by trained physicians and technologists; the device supports the use of MR-compatible immobilization accessories to ensure consistent patient alignment across multiple imaging sessions. The system does not alter the underlying MR imaging process; it facilitates diagnostic imaging by providing a stable, flat platform for the patient. The output is standard MR diagnostic images/spectra interpreted by physicians to assist in clinical diagnosis and treatment planning. Benefits include improved workflow integration with radiation therapy and other flat-table modalities.

Clinical Evidence

Bench testing only. The device was evaluated for safety per IEC 60601-1 and biocompatibility per ISO 10993-1, -5, and -10. Clinical image comparisons were performed to demonstrate that the modified table maintains the same imaging performance as the predicate Signa® HDx MR System.

Technological Characteristics

Patient table accessory for MR systems; provides a flat patient surface. Materials evaluated for biocompatibility per ISO 10993. Compatible with existing GE Signa® 1.5T and 3.0T MR systems. No changes to MR imaging energy source or sensing principles. Designed for use with MR-compatible immobilization accessories.

Indications for Use

Indicated for use as a diagnostic imaging device for whole-body MRI (head, neck, TMJ, spine, breast, heart, abdomen, pelvis, joints, prostate, blood vessels, musculoskeletal) to produce axial, sagittal, coronal, oblique, and spectroscopic images/spectra. Intended for patients requiring consistent positioning across multiple imaging sessions, including those undergoing radiation therapy planning.

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.

The Signa® Oncology Table is similar to the existing detachable patient table offered with Signa® MR Systems. It utilizes the detachable table system to offer a flat patient surface. The flat surface enables patients to be positioned similar to other diagnostic and therapeutic devices that also utilize flat patient surfaces. Also, the Signa® MR Oncology Package may be used with MR-compatible patient immobilization accessories to assist in consistent positions throughout multiple imaging sessions. ### Intended Use: The GE Signa® MR Oncology Package is a patient positioning package intended for use with GE Signa® MR Systems.

The primary difference is a modification to the removable patient table to offer a flat patient surface. The immobilization devices are previously cleared devices (K080072), and are not altered when packaged with the GE Signa® Oncology Table. #### Summary of Studies: The GE Signa® MR Oncology Package has been evaluated to the appropriate clauses of IEC 60601-1 Medical Electrical Equipment - Part 1: General Requirements for Safety standard. Also, the patient contacting surface has been evaluated using the methodology and appropriate parts of 10993-1 Biological Evaluation of Medical Devices - Part 1: Evaluation and Testing and the related 10993-5 and 10993-10 for Biocompatibility. The Signa® MR Oncology Package is an accessory for the currently marketed 1.5T and 3.0T Signa® HDx MR System. The modified table has been verified to function with the Signa® HDx MR System. Additionally, clinical image comparisons demonstrate that the Signa® MR Oncology Package maintains the same imaging performance as the Signa® HDx MR System with existing patient table. #### Conclusion: It is the opinion of GE that the GE Signa® MR Oncology Package is substantially equivalent to the currently marketed GE 1.5T and 3.0T Signa® HDx MR System and the patient table used with these systems. {2}------------------------------------------------ Image /page/2/Picture/1 description: The image shows the logo for the U.S. Department of Health & Human Services.
