Regulation 21 CFR 892.1000
Device Class Class 2
Intended Use
To be used in conjunction with GEHC 1.5T Magnetic Resonance Scanners to produce diagnostic and interventional planning images of the breast that can be interpreted by a trained physician. When used with biopsy accessories, this device permits access to the breast anatomy for interventional procedures that can be performed by a trained physician.
Device Story
The NeoCoil 1.5T 16ch Breast Coil is a three-part, receive-only phased array coil designed for MRI imaging of the breast, axilla, and chest wall. It functions by receiving RF signals corresponding to proton precession in a 1.5T magnetic field. The device includes a coil support structure, patient support structure, biopsy components, and comfort pads. It is used in clinical settings in conjunction with GEHC 1.5T MRI scanners. The coil enables high-resolution diagnostic imaging and provides access for interventional biopsy procedures. A trained physician interprets the resulting images to inform clinical decision-making and guide interventional planning. The device benefits patients by facilitating accurate diagnostic assessment and minimally invasive biopsy procedures.
Clinical Evidence
Clinical performance testing was conducted in accordance with FDA guidance for Magnetic Resonance Diagnostic Devices. The study evaluated technical factors and anatomy. No adverse events were reported, and the device demonstrated performance adequate to support the intended use.
Technological Characteristics
Phased array receive-only coil; 1.5T field strength; tuned to Larmor frequency for 1.5T. Materials comply with ISO 10993-1. Standards: IEC 60601-1, IEC 60601-1-2 (ESD), IEC 60601-1-6 (Usability), IEC 60601-2-33, NEMA MS-6 (SNR/Uniformity). Features blocking network for transmit decoupling. Thermal safety limit <41°C.
Indications for Use
Indicated for patients requiring diagnostic or interventional planning MRI of the breast, axilla, and chest wall. Used with GEHC 1.5T MRI scanners. Compatible with biopsy accessories for interventional procedures performed by trained physicians.
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.
