The summary describes an MRI coil, a hardware component for image acquisition, and does not mention any software or algorithms related to image processing or analysis using AI/ML.
No
The device is described as producing "diagnostic images," indicating its role in diagnosis rather than treatment.
Yes
The device is described as producing "diagnostic images" which can be "interpreted by a trained physician," indicating its role in diagnosis.
No
The device description clearly indicates it is a physical coil (hardware) used in conjunction with an MRI system, not a software-only device.
Based on the provided text, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostic devices are used to examine specimens taken from the human body (like blood, urine, or tissue) to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening.
- Device Function: The description clearly states that the 16ch Tx/Rx Knee SPEEDER is an MRI coil used to produce diagnostic images of specific anatomical sites (knee, wrist, hand, and forefoot) within the body. It is a non-invasive device that interacts with the patient's body to acquire imaging data.
- No Specimen Analysis: There is no mention of analyzing any biological specimens taken from the patient.
Therefore, the device falls under the category of medical imaging devices, not in vitro diagnostics.

10. Indications for Use
The 16ch Tx/Rx Knee SPEEDER is intended for use with Toshiba 1.5T MR systems to produce diagnostic images of the knee, wrist, hand, and forefoot that can be interpreted by a trained physician.
The Indications for Use statement for the 16ch Tx/Rx Knee SPEEDER is not identical to the predicate device; however, the differences do not alter the intended diagnostic use of the device nor do they affect the safety and effectiveness of the device relative to the predicate. Both Indications for Use statements for the 16ch Tx/Rx Knee SPEEDER coil and predicate 16ch Tx/Rx Knee SPEEDER coil indicate that the device is intended to be used in conjunction with a MR scanner to produce images of the knee, wrist, hand and forefoot and that the images can be interpreted by a trained physician. The Indications for Use statements differ only in MR scanner field strength; the proposed 16ch Tx/Rx Knee SPEEDER coil is intended for use with a 1.5T system while the predicate is to be used with a 3.0T system.

11. Summary of Technological Characteristics Compared to the Predicate Device
The proposed 16ch Tx/Rx Knee SPEEDER and the predicate 16ch Tx/Rx Knee SPEEDER are both 16 channel transmit/receive phased array RF coils intended to be used with a Toshiba MR system to provide images of the knee, wrist, hand and forefoot.
At a high level, the subject and predicate devices are based on the following same technological elements:
- . Intended to provide images of the knee, wrist, hand and forefoot
- 16 channel, transmit/receive phased array RF coils
- . Active PIN diode switching blocking circuitry. Passive blocking circuitry.
- . Split-top mechanical design with an inner cross section shaped to fit the knee.
- . Polycarbonate housing material
The following technological differences exist between the subject and predicate devices:
- Field strength of MR system (1.5T (subject) versus 3.0T . (predicate))
12. Performance Data
The following performance data were provided in support of the substantial equivalence determination.
Biocompatibility Testing
All surface materials on the 16ch Tx/Rx Knee SPEEDER that are intended to come into direct or indirect contact with patient biological tissues, cells or body fluids either have a history of safe use in previously-cleared devices or have been assessed for biocompatibility according to ISO 10993-1. Per ISO 10993-1, all patient-contacting materials on the 16ch Tx/Rx Knee SPEEDER are classified as surface-contacting, limited exposure (A) devices. - Therefore, where testing was performed, the materials were tested for cytotoxicity per ISO 10993-5 and for irritation and sensitization per ISO 10993-10.
6
Electrical Safety and Electromagnetic Compatibility
The electrical safety and electromagnetic compatibility of the 16ch Tx/Rx Knee SPEEDER was verified in accordance with AAMI/ANSI ES60601-1 and IEC 60601-2-33.
Surface heating was tested in accordance with AAMI/ANSI ES60601-1. The measured temperature of the surface of the coil never exceeded the maximum limit of 41°C.
Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) is controlled by the MR system, which estimates the total power delivered to the imaging volume with respect to whole body mass and estimated mass present in the imaging volume. The Toshiba MR system controls the maximum local SAR to within IEC60601-2-33 limits. SAR was tested per NEMA MS-8 on the 16ch Tx/Rx Knee SPEEDER in conjunction with the intended MR system; results showed that the measured SAR from the 16ch Tx/Rx Knee SPEEDER local transmitter was below the SAR displayed from the system. Thus, the Titan System SAR Management system effectively limits the local SAR when using the 16ch Tx/Rx Knee SPEEDER Coil.
Performance Testing - Bench
The SNR and uniformity of the 16ch Tx/Rx Knee SPEEDER was analyzed per NEMA MS-1, MS-6 and MS-9 and was found to conform to predetermined acceptance criteria.
Performance Testing - Clinical
In accordance with the FDA Guidance for Industry: Guidance for the Submission of Premarket Notifications for Magnetic Resonance Diagnostic Devices, clinical images from volunteer scanning of the knee, hand, wrist, and forefoot were obtained from the 16ch Tx/Rx Knee SPEEDER. These images were used to demonstrate that the 16ch Tx/Rx Knee SPEEDER produces diagnostic quality images of the intended anatomies.
13. Conclusion
The electrical safety and electromagnetic compatibility and biocompatibility data support the safety of the 16ch Tx/Rx Knee SPEEDER and the bench testing per the NEMA standards and diagnostic quality sample clinical images demonstrate the performance and effectiveness of the device under the specified use conditions. This testing demonstrates that the 16ch Tx/Rx Knee SPEEDER performs as well as or better than the predicate device.
