Device Description

The 3.0T Pediatric Head and Spine Array, Catalog #808GE3000, interfaces with the G.E. 3.0 Tesla Excite® system. It has been designed and optimized to collect spine (cervical, thoracic, and lumbar) and brain image data from many overlapping coil groups. The multi-channel design utilizes the G.E. Phased Array Coil inouts and utilizes standard coil configuration files available on the G.E. system. The coil form geometry has been formed to facilitate close coupling of the imaging coil's region-of-sensitivity to the anatomy of interest. The coil assembly comes with a comfort pad set to comfortably place the patient on the coil assembly.

AI/ML Overview

I am sorry, but the provided text does not contain information about acceptance criteria or a study that proves the device meets specific acceptance criteria. The document is a 510(k) submission for a medical device (MRI accessory coil) and primarily details the device description, intended use, and substantial equivalence to a predicate device, leading to FDA clearance.

There is no information regarding:

  • A table of acceptance criteria and reported device performance.
  • Sample sizes, data provenance, or details of a test set.
  • Ground truth establishment, including the number and qualifications of experts.
  • Adjudication methods.
  • Multi-reader multi-case (MRMC) comparative effectiveness studies or effect sizes.
  • Standalone algorithm performance studies.
  • Types of ground truth used (e.g., pathology, outcomes data).
  • Training set sample size or how its ground truth was established.

The document states that the new device has "minor changes to the size and physical orientation of the individual elements" and "the materials, use, and safety features are equivalent." It also notes that "Both are receive-only MRI antennas so no energy is imparted to the patient." This suggests that the clearance was based on demonstrating substantial equivalence in design and function, rather than extensive performance testing against acceptance criteria as might be seen for devices with more complex diagnostic or algorithmic components.

Dear Dr. Jones:

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 (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 898. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register.

Appendix A: 510(k) Submission for Pediatric Head/Spine

Statement of Indications for Use

The new device labeled the 3.0T Pediatric Head and Spine Array will have no substantive change in the Indications for Use over the predicate (unmodified) device, 1.5T Pediatric Array (K951649).

The intention of the new device is to expand the anatomical coverage provided by the device by modifying the patient-user interface in terms of altering the size and anatomical location of some of the array's individual resonators, as well as adding resonators. The new device also adds parallel imaging compatibility.

The Intended Use Statements remain virtually identical to those of the unmodified device. These statements follow.

  • i. Soft tissue and bone imaging of the spine and brain as allowed by the MRI system.
  • ii. Magnetic resonance angiography.

Prescription Use

Nancy Borden

§ 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.
