Intended Use

Anatomy: head, limbs, spine, torso; Nuclei: H-1; Diagnostic uses: Imaging

Device Story

Magnetic resonance diagnostic device; 0.15 Tesla static magnetic field; generates diagnostic images of head, limbs, spine, torso. Operated by trained personnel in clinical settings. System utilizes RF power and magnetic field gradients to acquire signals; processes signals to produce anatomical images. Healthcare providers use images for diagnostic assessment. Benefits include non-invasive visualization of internal anatomy.

Clinical Evidence

Bench testing only. Performance data provided for head and body receive coils including signal-to-noise ratio (S/N > 32 head, > 31 body), uniformity (< 15% head, < 40% body), geometric distortion (< 2.5% head, < 3.5% body), slice thickness/position accuracy, and spatial resolution.

Technological Characteristics

0.15 Tesla static magnetic field; 18.4 Tesla/sec max rate of magnetic field change; 0.05 W/kg max RF power deposition; 114 dB peak acoustic noise. Includes head and body receive coils. Performance specifications: 15 cm dsv (head) and 30 cm dsv (body) volumes.

Indications for Use

Indicated for diagnostic imaging of the head, limbs, spine, and torso using H-1 nuclei.

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.
