No
The summary explicitly states "Mentions AI, DNN, or ML: Not Found" and the device description focuses on a new pulse sequence, not AI/ML capabilities.
No
The document states the device is an "imaging device" intended to provide "information that can be useful in diagnosis determination." It is described as a "dedicated breast MRI system intended to be used as an adjunct to conventional breast screening methods." This indicates a diagnostic purpose, not therapeutic.
Yes
Explanation: The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" section states, "When interpreted by a trained physician, these images provide information that can be useful in diagnosis determination." This clearly indicates its role in the diagnostic process.
No
The device is described as an "imaging device" and an "MRI system," which are hardware-based modalities. The modification is the addition of a "pulse sequence," which is a software component, but it is added to an existing hardware 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 device is an "imaging device" that provides "physiological and clinical information obtained non-invasively." It produces images of internal structures.
- Mechanism: The device uses Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) to create images based on the magnetic properties of protons. This is a non-invasive imaging technique.
- IVD Definition: In vitro diagnostics (IVDs) are tests performed on samples taken from the human body, such as blood, urine, or tissue, to detect diseases, conditions, or infections. This device does not involve testing samples taken from the body.
The AURORA MRI system is a medical imaging device used for diagnostic purposes, but it falls under the category of in vivo diagnostics (diagnostics performed within the living body), not in vitro diagnostics.
N/A
Intended Use / Indications for Use
The AURORA MRI system is an imaging device, and is intended to provide the physician with physiological and clinical information obtained non-invasively and without the use of ionizing radiation. The MR system produces transverse, coronal, sagittal, and oblique cross-sectional images that display the internal structure of the extremities (breast tissue, axilla, and chest wall local to the breast). The images produced by the MR system reflect the spatial distribution of protons (hydrogen nuclei) exhibiting magnetic resonance. The NMR properties that determine the image appearance are proton density spin-lattice relaxation time (T1), spin-spin relaxation time (T2), and flow. When interpreted by a trained physician, these images provide information that can be useful in diagnosis determination.
The AURORA is a dedicated breast MRI system intended to be used as an adjunct to conventional breast screening methods.

§ 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.

6. TECHNOLOGICAL CHARACTERISTICS AND SUBSTANTIAL EQUIVALENCE
Aurora Imaging Technology, Inc., makes a claim of substantial equivalence of the modified AURORA to the predicate AURORA (K032082) based on similarities in intended use, design, and technological and operational characteristics. Both are indicated for magnetic resonance imaging of the breast. Both systems use the same hardware and software except that the modified device includes a new pulse sequence for fat suppression.
7. TESTING
Testing was performed to validate the safety and performance of the AURORA with the new pulse sequence.
