Intended Use
MultiBand SENSE is a software option intended for use on Ingenia 3.0T CX MR Systems. It's indicated for use in magnetic resonance imaging of the brain for diffusion weighted imaging. MultiBand SENSE consists of an acquisition and reconstruction technique allowing simultaneous excitation of multiple volumes to accelerate imaging acquisition times, or increasing coverage or number of diffusion directions without increasing scan time.
Device Description
The Multiband SENSE feature enables simultaneous excitation and acquisition of multiple volumes for spin echo and gradient echo MR sequences for the purpose of speeding up acquisition times or increasing coverage or resolution without increasing scan time. The simultaneous volume excitation is achieved using a multiband RF pulse. The image unfolding of the simultaneously acquired volumes is done using the SENSE algorithm. The image unfolding is improved by introducing a shift in k-space in the phase direction which is dependent on the volume spatial location, resulting in a spatial shift of the aliased pixels. Artifacts related to mismatch between SENSE reference scan and the clinical scan are minimized using information from a previously acquired Bo map. The MultiBand SENSE feature is available on Ingenia 3.0T and Ingenia 3.0T CX systems, and is compatible with the 32 channel head coil.

No
The description focuses on established signal processing and reconstruction techniques (SENSE algorithm, k-space manipulation, Bo map correction) and does not mention AI or ML terms or concepts.

No
The device is described as an acquisition and reconstruction technique for magnetic resonance imaging of the brain, designed to accelerate imaging acquisition times or increase coverage/diffusion directions without increasing scan time. Its purpose is to enhance image acquisition, not to treat a disease, injury, or condition.

No

The device is a software option for an MR system, designed to accelerate imaging acquisition or increase coverage/diffusion directions. It aids in image acquisition and reconstruction, not in interpreting or diagnosing medical conditions from the acquired images.

No

The device is described as a "software option intended for use on Ingenia 3.0T CX MR Systems." While it is a software feature, it is explicitly tied to and operates on a specific hardware system (MR Systems). The description details how the software interacts with the hardware (multiband RF pulse, image unfolding using SENSE algorithm, k-space shifts, Bo map information) to achieve its function. It is not a standalone software application independent of a medical device hardware platform.

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

Here's why:

  • IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostics are tests performed on samples taken from the human body, such as blood, urine, or tissue, to detect diseases, conditions, or infections.
  • Device Function: The description clearly states that MultiBand SENSE is a software option for an MRI system used for magnetic resonance imaging of the brain. This is an in vivo imaging technique, meaning it is performed on a living organism, not on samples taken from the body.
  • Intended Use: The intended use is for accelerating or improving the acquisition of MRI images of the brain, not for analyzing biological samples.

Therefore, MultiBand SENSE falls under the category of medical imaging devices, not In Vitro Diagnostics.

Device Description: The Multiband SENSE feature enables simultaneous excitation and acquisition of multiple volumes for spin echo and gradient echo MR sequences for the purpose of speeding up acquisition times or increasing coverage or resolution without increasing scan time. The simultaneous volume excitation is achieved using a multiband RF pulse. The image unfolding of the simultaneously acquired volumes is done using the SENSE algorithm. The image unfolding is improved by introducing a shift in k-space in the phase direction which is dependent on the volume spatial location, resulting in a spatial shift of the aliased pixels. Artifacts related to mismatch between SENSE reference scan and the clinical scan are minimized using information from a previously acquired Bo map. The MultiBand SENSE feature is available on Ingenia 3.0T and Ingenia 3.0T CX systems, and is compatible with the 32 channel head coil. Indications for Use: MultiBand SENSE is a software option intended for use on Ingenia 3.0T and Ingenia 3.0T CX MR Systems. It's indicated for use in magnetic resonance imaging of the brain for BOLD fMRI and for diffusion weighted imaging. MultiBand SENSE consists of an acquisition and reconstruction technique allowing simultaneous excitation of multiple volumes to accelerate imaging acquisition times, or increasing coverage or number of diffusion directions without increasing scan time. Fundamental Scientific The MultiBand SENSE feature enables simultaneous Technology: excitation and acquisition of multiple volumes or slices for the purpose of speeding up acquisition times or increasing coverage or resolution at constant scan time. The simultaneous excitation is done using a multi-band radiofrequency pulse. The unfolding of the simultaneously acquired volumes is done using the SENSE algorithm. The unfolding process (solving the linear equation of the SENSE algorithm) is improved by introducing a linear phase over k-space in the volume direction resulting in a spatial shift of the aliased pixels. The phase shift is applied by additional blip-gradients in the slice direction or switching between different RF pulses, and compensated for in reconstruction by a translation of the coil sensitivity data before the SENSE unfolding. The feature consists of: ● Modulated RF pulses exciting 2 or more spatial slice locations Blip-gradients to introduce a phase shift on slices for . improved unfolding . Shifting coil sensitivities in reconstruction to correct for linear phase shift. Automatic use of Bo inhomogeneity information to . correct geometric distortions in the SENSE calculation
