Intended Use

Optoacoustic's MRI Multi-Channel Optical Communication System (MOC) is intended to facilitate audio communications and stimulation during a scanning session. System devices provide real-time Scanner noise reduction and/or noise cancellation, while enabling multiple concurrent dialogs.

Device Story

MRI Multi-Channel Optical Communication System (MOC) facilitates audio communication and stimulation during MRI scanning. Inputs include voice signals from medical staff/technologists and audio/music stimulation; system uses fiber optic cables and infrared (IR) technology to transmit signals, avoiding electrical interference in the MRI environment. The Electro-Optical Unit (EOU) performs signal transduction, noise cancellation, and enhancement. Output is delivered via optical headsets to patients and staff. Operated by technologists in the control room via a mixing console to manage dialogs and noise reduction levels. Benefits include real-time gradient noise reduction, improved sound quality, and concurrent multi-channel communication, enhancing patient comfort and clinical workflow efficiency during MRI procedures.

Clinical Evidence

Bench testing only. Performance evaluation included electrical safety and electromagnetic compatibility testing per IEC 60601-1 and IEC 60601-1-2. Risk analysis conducted per ISO 14971. No clinical trial data required for this communication accessory.

Technological Characteristics

System utilizes optical laser and optical transduction (light modulation to sound) and diffuse infrared (IR) for wireless components. Components include optical headsets, control/mixing console, EOU, and IR transceivers. Connectivity via fiber optic cables. Materials include passive noise-reducing casings and disposable earpads. Non-computer-based system; continuous mode of operation.

Indications for Use

Indicated for patients undergoing functional, interventional, and clinical MRI scans, as well as for use by doctors and technologists in these environments to facilitate audio communication and stimulation.

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.
