No
The summary describes a receive-only RF coil for MRI, focusing on hardware specifications and performance metrics related to signal quality and safety standards. There is no mention of AI or ML in the intended use, device description, or performance studies.
No.
The device is an RF coil for an MRI system, used for imaging and diagnostic purposes, not for treating a condition or disease.
No
This device is a receive-only RF coil for MRI systems, designed to acquire imaging data of the head, neck, and brachial plexus. It is a component used in the imaging process, but does not itself provide a diagnosis. Diagnosis is typically made by a healthcare professional based on the images produced using such a device.
No
The device is a physical RF coil designed for use with MRI systems, not a software-only device. The description details hardware components like an 8-Channel Phased Array and a Pconnector.
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 about a person's health.
- Device Function: The 3.0T GEM RT Open Array Coil is an RF coil used in an MRI system. Its function is to receive radiofrequency signals from the body during an MRI scan.
- Intended Use: The intended use is for imaging the head, neck, and brachial plexus and vasculature. This is an imaging procedure performed directly on the patient's body, not on a specimen taken from the body.
Therefore, the device falls under the category of medical imaging equipment, not In Vitro Diagnostics.

Device Description
The 3.0T GEM RT Open Array is a receive-only coil designed to provide optimal penetration, uniformity, and signal to noise ratio for the posterior head-neck and brachial plexus. The 3.0T GEM RT Open Array coil is an 8-Channel Phased Array, which is sold as an option to the Oncology Suite that is compatible with the 3.0T GE GEM compatible MR Scanner. The GEM RT Open Array is a posterior coil that comes with a Pconnector that can be plugged into the head end (P2) or foot end (P4) of the 3.0T GEM patient table (K103327). When used with the Oncology suite the GEM RT Open Array coil can be inserted into the GEM cradle at the head end.

§ 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.

Dear Ms. Mandera:
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. Please note: CDRH does not evaluate information related to contract liability warranties. We remind you, however, that device labeling must be truthful and not misleading.
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.
Please be advised that FDA's issuance of a substantial equivalence determination does not mean that FDA has made a determination that your device complies with other requirements of the Act or any Federal statutes and regulations administered by other Federal agencies. You must comply with all the Act's requirements, including, but not limited to: registration and listing (21 CFR Part 807); labeling (21 CFR Part 801); medical device reporting (reporting of medical device-related adverse events) (21 CFR 803); good manufacturing practice requirements as set forth in the quality systems (QS) regulation (21 CFR Part 820); and if applicable, the electronic product radiation control provisions (Sections 531-542 of the Act); 21 CFR 1000-1050.

Summary of Clinical Tests:
The subject of this premarket submission, 3.0T GEM RT Open Array, did not require clinical studies to support substantial equivalence. Sample clinical images have been included in this submission.
Substantial Equivalence Conclusion:
The indications for use of the proposed device are identical to the claimed predicate device. The 3.0T GEM RT Open Array employs equivalent technology to the claimed predicate device. Additionally, the results from the above non-clinical tests demonstrate that the device performs as intended. Thus, the 3.0T GEM RT Open Array is substantially equivalent to the predicate device to which it has been compared.
- Conclusion: GE Healthcare considers the 3.0T GEM RT Open Array to be as safe, as effective, and performance is substantially equivalent to the predicate device.
