Intended Use
The E-scan XQ is intended for diagnostic nuclear magnetic resonance imaging of the hip, knee, ankle, foot, shoulder, elbow, wrist, hand, calf, thigh, arm and forearm. The device produces transverse, sagittal, coral and oblique cross-sectional images, displaying the internal structure of the limbs and joints being imaged. The images that are produced correspond to the spatial distribution of protons (hydrogen nuclei) that check the magnetic resonance properties and depend upon the MR parameters (spin-lattice relaxation time (T1), spin-spin relaxation time (T2), nuclei density, flow velocity and chemical shift). If interpreted by a medical expert, these images can provide diagnostically useful information.
Device Description
The E-Scan MRI system is substantially equivalent to the currently available E-Scan system cleared via K012728.
More Information

No
The summary describes a standard MRI system and does not mention any AI or ML capabilities in the intended use, device description, or specific sections for AI/ML information.

No
The device is described as being "intended for diagnostic nuclear magnetic resonance imaging" and used to "provide diagnostically useful information," indicating a diagnostic rather than therapeutic purpose.

Yes
The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" section explicitly states that the device is "intended for diagnostic nuclear magnetic resonance imaging" and that the images produced "can provide diagnostically useful information" when interpreted by a medical expert.

No

The device description explicitly refers to an "E-Scan MRI system" and mentions a "Hip Coil" in the predicate devices, indicating it is a hardware system for nuclear magnetic resonance imaging, not software only.

No, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostics are medical devices used to examine specimens taken from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue) to provide information about a person's health. This testing is done outside of the body.
  • E-scan XQ Function: The E-scan XQ is an MRI system. It uses nuclear magnetic resonance imaging to produce images of internal body structures directly within the patient's body. It does not analyze specimens taken from the body.

The description clearly states it's for "diagnostic nuclear magnetic resonance imaging of the hip, knee, ankle, foot, shoulder, elbow, wrist, hand, calf, thigh, arm and forearm" and produces "cross-sectional images, displaying the internal structure of the limbs and joints being imaged." This is a form of in vivo (within the living body) diagnostic imaging, not in vitro diagnostic testing.

§ 892.1000 Magnetic resonance diagnostic device.

(a)
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).(b)
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.

Intended Use(s)

XQ The E-scan is intended for diagnostic nuclear magnetic resonance imaging of the hip, knee, ankle, foot, shoulder, elbow, wrist, hand, calf, thigh, arm and forearm. The device produces transverse, sagittal, coronal and oblique cross-sectional images, displaying the internal structure of the limbs and joints being imaged. The images that are produced correspond to the spatial distribution of protons (hydrogen nuclei) that check the magnetic resonance properties and depend upon the MR parameters (spin-lattice relaxation time (T1), spin-spin relaxation time (T2), nuclei density, flow velocity and chemical shift). If interpreted by a medical expert, these images can provide diagnostically useful information.
