The indications for use are the same as for standard MR Imaging. The Mark 5000 Phased Array Coil is designed for use with the Outlook (0.23Tesla) MRI scanner manufactured by Picker International Inc. ## Device Story Mark 5000 Phased Array Shoulder Coil is a receive-only RF coil for MRI systems; utilizes two volume RF coil elements in quadrature design. Enclosed in flexible vinyl housing; positioned on patient shoulder via straps. Device does not transmit RF power; decoupling via switching diodes isolates elements during RF transmission to prevent RF burns and resonant loops. Used in clinical MRI settings; operated by MRI technicians/radiologists. Output consists of raw MR signals processed by the host MRI scanner (Picker Outlook) to generate diagnostic images. Clinical benefit includes high-quality soft tissue imaging of the shoulder region to assist physicians in diagnosis. ## Clinical Evidence Bench testing only. No clinical data provided. Safety and effectiveness established through comparison of design, materials, and electrical characteristics to legally marketed predicate devices. ## Technological Characteristics Receive-only phased array RF coil; two-channel quadrature design. Materials: vinyl fabric enclosure, ABS/PVC plastic alloy, polyurethane. Decoupling: switching diode. Connectivity: connects to Picker Outlook (0.23T) MRI scanner. Non-conductive housing. No internal software/firmware; passive hardware component. ## Regulatory 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. ## Predicate Devices - Phased Array Shoulder Coil Medical Advances Inc.

You may, therefore, market the device, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act. The general controls provisions of the Act include requirements for annual registration, listing of devices, good manufacturing practice, labeling, and prohibitions against misbranding and adulteration. If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (Premarket Approval), it may be subject to such additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 895. A substantiation assumes compliance with the Current Good Manufacturing Practice requirements, as set forth in the Quality System Regulation (OS) for Medical Devices: General regulation (21 CFR Part 820) and that, through periodic QS inspections, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) will verify such assumptions. Failure to comply with the GMP regulation may result in regulatory action. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register. Please note: this response to your premarket notification submission does not affect any obligation you might have under sections 531 through 542 of the Act for devices under the Electronic Product Radiation Control provisions, or other Federal laws or regulations. This letter will allow you to begin marketing your device as described in your 510(k) premarket notification. The FDA finding of substantial equivalence of your device to a legally marketed predicate device results in a classification for your device and thus, permits your device to proceed to the market. If you desire specific advice for your device on our labeling regulation (21 CFR Part 801 and additionally 809.10 for in ritto diagnostic devices), please contact the Office of Compliance at (301) 594-4613. Additionally, for questions on the promotion and advertising of your device, please contact the Office of Compirance at (301) 594-4639. Also, please note the regulation entitled, "Misbranding by reference to premarket notification" (21 CFR 807.97). Other general information on your responsibilities under the Act may be obtained from the Division of Small Manufacturers Assistance at its toll-free number (800) 638-2041 or (301) 443-6597 or at its Internet address "http://www.fda.gov/cdrividsmaldsmamain.html".

The Mark 5000 Phased Array Shoulder Coil is designed for use with the Outlook (.23 Tesla) MRI scanner manufactured by Picker International. > Anatomic Regions: Shoulder and surrounding regions. Nuclei Excited: Hydrogen The indications for use are the same as for standard imaging: The Picker Outlook system is indicated for use as an NMR device that produces images that: (1) correspond to the distribution of protons exhibiting NMR signal, (2) depend upon NMR parameters (proton density, spin lattice relaxation time T1, 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 yield information that can be useful in the determination of a diagnosis.
