Intended Use
The intended use of the Noras CPC is, in conjunction with a Magnetic Resonance Scanner, Body-imaging for diagnostic with a MRI system. It is indicated for use as a diagnostic imaging device to produce transverse, sagittal, coronal and oblique images of the internal structures of special regions of the human body. When interpreted by a trained physician, these images provide information that can be use in determining diagnosis. The application area shouldn't be bigger than 20 cm because of the depth of 10 om per coll. The outcome of this is diagnostic images of toes, feet, ankle, knee, finger, hand, wrist, elbow, shoulder, carotid artery, inner ear and other parts of the body with sumilar structure can be taken.
Device Description
The CPC is a multifuntional coil for 1 5T and 3T MRI-systems, with 2x4-channel phased array receive only colls. The coils are pre-tuned in the fixed load and no further tuning or matching is required for the user. The coll is divided into two spherical parts. Each half contains a 4 channel receive only array. The coils were used together with a parallel imaging procedure. Each coll has its own plug. The plug is specific to the MRI-system and can't be mixed up with a not designated MRI-system. The base plate is flat and is suitable on each Siemens MRI-system table.

No
The document describes an MRI coil and its intended use for diagnostic imaging. There is no mention of AI or ML in the device description, intended use, or performance studies. The "Mentions AI, DNN, or ML" section explicitly states "Not Found".

No
The device is described as a "diagnostic imaging device" used to produce images for "determining diagnosis," not for treating conditions.

Yes
The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" section explicitly states that the device is "for diagnostic" use and "indicated for use as a diagnostic imaging device".

No

The device description clearly states it is a "multifunctional coil" and describes physical components like "2x4-channel phased array receive only coils," "plugs," and a "base plate." This indicates it is a hardware device, not software-only.

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

Here's why:

  • IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostics are devices intended for use in the collection, preparation, and examination of specimens taken from the human body (such as blood, urine, or tissue) to provide information for the diagnosis, treatment, or prevention of disease.
  • Device Function: The Noras CPC is a coil used in conjunction with an MRI scanner to produce images of internal body structures. It is a component of an imaging system, not a device that analyzes biological specimens.
  • Intended Use: The intended use is for "Body-imaging for diagnostic with a MRI system" and to "produce transverse, sagittal, coronal and oblique images of the internal structures of special regions of the human body." This is clearly an in-vivo imaging application, not an in-vitro diagnostic test.

Therefore, the Noras CPC falls under the category of a medical imaging device, not an In Vitro Diagnostic device.

§ 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.

  1. Summary of Technological Characteristics of the Principal Device as Compared with the Predicate Devices

The MRI multifunctional CPC coil has been designed to examine the internal structures of special regions of the human body To get MR images it is mandatory to use the loop colls of the MRT System manufacturer The approach of this new product was, to give the physician a more comfortable access to the region of interest in the internal structures of special regions of the human body to produce transverse, sagittal, coronal and oblique images, which provide information that can be useful in determining diagnosis

8. General Safety and Effectiveness Concerns

The complete system CPC will conform the harmonized standard of IEC 60601-1 30 edition. Medical electrical equipment - General requirements for basic safety and essential performance

The CPC coil will conform to the FDA recognized NEMA standards for the measurement of performance and safety parameters and the IEC standards for safety issues with the Magnetic Resonance Imaging Devices, IEC 60601-2-33 2003 This will assure that the performance of this device can be considered safe and effective when used with the currently available MAGNETOM systems

All tests are performed on the Siemens Avanto This is the most critical engine for safety and performance of the Siemens 1 5T series Passing these tests gives the Siemens approval for the complete 1 5T series

9. Conclusion as to Substantial Equivalence

Noras believes that, within the definition of the Safe Medical Devices Act of 1990, the Noras multifunctional CPC colls are substantially equivalent to the predicate devices listed above
