More Information

Not Found

No
The summary describes a physical MR coil and does not mention any software or algorithms that would utilize AI/ML for image processing or analysis.

No
The device is described as an accessory to produce images, and its primary applications are associated with "evaluation of the anatomy." It is a receive-only MR coil, which means it aids in imaging rather than directly treating a condition.

No
Explanation: The device is described as an accessory for producing images. While these images may be used for diagnostic purposes, the device itself is a tool for image acquisition, not for diagnosis. It does not analyze data or provide diagnostic conclusions.

No

The device description explicitly states it is a "four-channel phased array receive only MR coil," which is a hardware component used in conjunction with an MR system.

Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly states that the coil is used "to produce images of the abdominal and pelvic regions in 2D and 3D" in conjunction with an MR scanner. This is a device used for imaging, not for performing tests on biological samples (like blood, urine, tissue) outside of the body to diagnose or monitor a condition.
  • Device Description: The description confirms it's an "MR coil," which is a component of an imaging system.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of analyzing biological samples, detecting analytes, or providing diagnostic information based on in vitro testing.

IVD devices are specifically designed to be used in vitro (outside the body) to examine specimens derived from the human body to provide information for diagnostic, monitoring, or compatibility purposes. This device is used in vivo (within the body) as part of an imaging procedure.

§ 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.

Device Name:

3.0T Torso Phased Array Coil Magnetic Resonance Diagnostic System, 21 CFR 892.1000, 90-MOS

Marketed Device:

The 3.0T Torso Phased Array Coil is substantially equivalent to the currently marketed GE Medical Systems 1.5T Cardiac Phased Array (K971667) and USA Instruments Torso and Pelvis Phased Array Coil (K001209).

Device Description:

The 3.0T Torso Phased Array Coil is a four-channel phased array receive only MR coil used in conjunction with the GE 3.0T MR system.

Indications for Use:

The coil is indicated for use, on the order of a physician in conjunction with a 3.0T MR scanner, as an accessory to produce images of the abdominal and pelvic regions in 2D and 3D.

The primary applications associated with evaluation of the anatorny are as follows:

  • u Thorax
  • . Abdomen
  • 트 Male and Female Pelvis
  • . Prostate

Comparison with Predicate Device:

The 3.0T Torso Phased Array Coil is a modification of the GE Medical Systems 1.5T Cardiac Phased Array Coil (K971667) with the main differences being that the 3.0T

1

Torso Phased Array Coil is tuned to 127.72MHz for operation at 3.0T instead of 63.86MHz for operation at 1.5T. In addition the dimensions of the 3.0T Torso Phased Array Coil (34cm wide and 32cm long) are larger than the dimensions of the 1.5T Cardiac Phased Array Coil for a higher FOV coverage requirement in case of the 3.0T Torso Phased Array coil. The technological similarities to the USA Instruments Torso and Pelvis Phased Array Coil (K001209) include similar applications and indications for use.

Summary of Studies:

Testing was performed to demonstrate that the design of the 4 channel 3.0T Torso Phased Array Coil meet predetermined acceptance criteria.

Conclusion:

It is the opinion of GE that the 3.0T Torso Phased Array Coil is substantially equivalent to the currently marketed GE Medical Systems 1.5T Cardiac Phased Array Coil (K971667) and USA Instruments Torso and Pelvis Phased Array Coil (K001209). Usage of the 3.0T Torso Phased Array Coil does not result in any new potential hazards.

Dear Mr. Steneberg:

We have reviewed your Section 510(k) premarket notification of intent to market the device referenced above and have determined the device is substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to legally marketed predicate devices marketed in interstate commerce prior to May 28, 1976, the enactment date of the Medical Device Amendments, or to devices that have been reclassified in accordance with the provisions of the Federal Food. Drug. and Cosmetic Act (Act) that do not require approval of a premarket approval application (PMA). 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 (PMA), it may be subject to additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 898. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register.
