Indications for Use

The Infinion 1.5T MR Imaging System is indicated for use as a NMR device that produces images that: (1) correspond to the distribution of protons exhibiting NMR, (2) depend upon the NMR parameters (proton density, flow velocity, spin-lattice relaxation time (T1), and spin-spin relaxation time (T2)) and (3) display the soft tissue structure of the head and whole body. When interpreted by a trained physician, these images vield information that can be useful in the determination of a diagnosis. Diffusion tensor imaging is indicated for use by producing magnetic resonance (MR) images whose contrast is dependent on the local diffusion coefficient of water. Diffusion tensor imaging can be used to image the directional dependence of the diffusion coefficient in tissue with restricted diffusion from tissues with normal diffusion.

Device Story

Infinion Software Features are software enhancements for the Infinion 1.5T MR Imaging System. Features include SENSE (Sensitivity Encoding) for scan time reduction via acceleration factors; CLEAR (Constant Level Appearance) for B1 receive field uniformity correction; b-FFE (balanced Fast Field Echo) for rapid imaging; and SofTone for acoustic noise reduction via slew rate modification. Diffusion tensor imaging functionality enables visualization of water diffusion coefficients. Operated by trained clinicians in clinical settings. Output consists of MR images interpreted by physicians to aid diagnosis. Enhancements improve workflow efficiency, image quality, and patient comfort.

Clinical Evidence

Bench testing only. Substantial equivalence is based on technical comparison of imaging parameters, software functionality, and adherence to established safety standards (IEC 601-2-33) for MR systems.

Technological Characteristics

Software-based enhancements for 1.5T MRI system. Includes SENSE (parallel imaging), CLEAR (field uniformity correction), b-FFE (gradient echo sequence), and SofTone (acoustic noise reduction). Operates within existing MR hardware infrastructure. Complies with IEC 601-2-33 for time-varying magnetic fields.

Indications for Use

Indicated for patients requiring MR imaging of the head and whole body for diagnostic purposes. Diffusion tensor imaging indicated for imaging directional dependence of water diffusion coefficient in tissues (e.g., white matter) to differentiate restricted from normal diffusion.

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.
