Intended Use
The Superopen 0.23T(Modified) is intended to produce images that 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 (T), spin-spin relaxation time (T2) and flow. When interpreted by a trained physician, these images provide information that can be useful in determining a diagnosis. The Superopen 0.23T(Modified) is an imaging device, and is intended to provide the physician with indications for use. The system obtains images non-invasively and without the use of ionizing radiation. The MRI system produces transverse, coronal, sagittal, oblique, and curved cross-sectional images that display the internal structure of the head, body, or extremities. The images produced by MRI 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.
Device Description
The Superopen 0.23T(Modified) is a 0.35T permanent magnet MRI system. The magnet is mainly made of NdFeB material. The system software based on Windows (TM) is an interactive program with user-friendly interface. Its functions cover scanning control, image reconstruction and image/archive management and maintenance.
More Information

Not Found

No
The document describes a standard MRI system and its software for image acquisition, reconstruction, and management. There is no mention of AI or ML in the intended use, device description, or any other section. The focus is on the physical properties of MRI and image interpretation by a trained physician.

No
The device is described as an "imaging device" intended to produce images for diagnostic purposes by a trained physician, not for treating any condition.

Yes

The text explicitly states that the images produced by the device, "When interpreted by a trained physician, these images provide information that can be useful in determining a diagnosis." This indicates its role in the diagnostic process.

No

The device description explicitly states it is a "0.35T permanent magnet MRI system," indicating it includes significant hardware components beyond just software.

Based on the provided information, 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 for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening.
  • Device Function: The Superopen 0.23T(Modified) is a Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) system. It produces images of the internal structure of the body non-invasively. It does not analyze samples taken from the body.
  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly states it produces images to provide information useful in diagnosis determination when interpreted by a trained physician. This is consistent with the function of an imaging device, not an IVD.

Therefore, the Superopen 0.23T(Modified) is an imaging device, not an In Vitro Diagnostic.

§ 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.

Statement of Substantial Equivalence:

The Superopen 0.23T(Modified) is of comparable type and substantially equivalent to the Superopen 0.23T (K033315) in that they are similar in technology and intended uses. It is a modified product based on the Superopen 0.23T. Both of these systems are open-permanent-magnet MR Imaging System, use Gradient Subsystem to provide controlled and uniform gradient magnet fields in the X, Y and Z planes, and use RF Subsystem to complete the function of RF signal transmitting/receiving and processing. Image reconstruction is controlled by console's computer that has an interactive user interface, and the system produces 2D and 3D image that can be filmed or electronically stored for future review. Both of these systems have the traditional MRI unit.
