No
The device description focuses on the physical components and function of an MR coil and support system, with no mention of software, algorithms, or data processing that would indicate AI/ML. The performance studies evaluate physical imaging parameters like SNR and uniformity, not algorithmic performance.
No
The device is described as a "diagnostic device extension" used to produce images and spectra to "assist in diagnosis," not to treat a condition.
Yes
The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" section explicitly states, "The Endorectal Coil is indicated for use as diagnostic device extension for GE 1.5 T MR Systems and GE 3.0 T MR Systems..." and further notes that the resulting images "yield information that may assist in diagnosis."
No
The device description clearly details physical hardware components (coil housing, coil element, preamplifier, connector, ER Coil Support) designed to interact with an MR system to receive signals. It is not solely software.
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 or other conditions.
- Device Function: The Endorectal Coil is a component of an MR imaging system. It works by receiving radio frequency signals from the body to create images of the prostate. This is an in vivo (within the living body) diagnostic process, not an in vitro process.
- Intended Use: The intended use clearly states it's for producing images and spectra of the prostate, which are then interpreted by a physician to assist in diagnosis. This aligns with imaging diagnostics, not laboratory-based in vitro diagnostics.
Therefore, the Endorectal Coil is a medical device used for in vivo diagnostic imaging, not an in vitro diagnostic device.
N/A
Intended Use / Indications for Use
The Endorectal Coil is indicated for use as diagnostic device extension for GE 1.5 T MR Systems and GE 3.0 T MR Systems to produce transverse, sagittal, coronal and oblique images, spectroscopic images and/or spectra, displaying the internal structure of the prostate.
These images when interpreted by a trained physician, yield information that may assist in diagnosis.

Device Description
The Endorectal Coil (1.5T Endorectal Coil O-HLE-015-01899, 1.5T Endorectal Coil O-HLE-015-01946, 3.0T Endorectal Coil O-HLE-030-01900 and ER Coil Support ZUB-01955) is designed for use with a magnetic resonance (MR) system. The coil is designed to work in unison with the Body Coil (BC) of the MR system, which will excite the hydrogen (1H) nuclei with radio frequency (RF) magnetic fields, so that the coil may receive the resultant RF signal from the excited nuclei. The coil is designed as a reusable receive-only coil for high resolution MR examination of the prostate.
The coil housing is minimum sized and drop-shaped for better patient comfort. It features a flat top to minimize the distance of the inside receive coil electronics to the prostate. The coil is receive-only (Rx) and consists of a single loop coil element with an integrated low noise preamplifier and a connector to the GE 1.5 T MR-System or GE 3.0 T MR-System. The coil is fixed tuned and matched to the typical loading condition of a prostate examination at the Larmor frequency of 1H at 1.5 T (63.9 MHz) or 3.0 T (127.7 MHz), respectively. Decoupling circuits are integrated in the single loop element providing a decoupling from the Body Coil of the MR System during transmission of the RF excitation pulse.
It is recommended to employ an Endorectal Coil Model in combination with the additional available ER Coil Support. The ER Coil Support is designed for use with any Endorectal Coil Model (1.5T Endorectal Coil O-HLE-015-01899, 1.5T Endorectal Coil O-HLE-015-01946 and 3.0T Endorectal Coil O-HLE-030-01900). It supports stabilizing the Endorectal Coil in any position required by each individual endorectal MR examination. The ER Coil Support features a collet for acceptance of the Endorectal Coil. The Endorectal Coil is fixated inside the collet by tightening of a knurled screw. It offers five degrees of freedom to align the position of the collet with the required spatial position of the Endorectal Coil housing. Two additional knurled screws allow the lock the ER Coil Support in the desired alignment.

Equivalency Information
RAPID Biomedical believes that the SUBJECT DEVICE is substantially equivalent to the cleared PREDICATE DEVICE which is described in the following submission.
| PREDICATE DEVICE | Clearance Number | Date |
|---|---|---|
| MEDRAD 3.0T eCoil Imaging System | K060401 | 03/15/2006 |

Summary of Technological Characteristics of the SUBJECT DEVICE as compared with the PREDICATE DEVICE
The proposed labelling is adjusted compared to the PREDICATE DEVICE with respect to differing MR Systems, changes in the currently applicable standards and for better usability.
Overall, the indications for use, the intended use and the coil technology and safety are substantially equivalent.
General Safety and Effectiveness Concerns
The safety and performance parameters for SUBJECT DEVICE according to the FDA Guidance Document "Submission of Premarket Notifications for Magnetic Resonance Diagnostic Devices, issued on Nov. 18, 2016" are equivalent or better than for the PREDICATE DEVICE.
Nonclinical Tests
Nonclinical tests were performed on a phantom to evaluate the SUBJECT DEVICE concerning applicable imaging parameters Signal to Noise Ratio (SNR) and Image Uniformity. Tests were conducted following NEMA Standards. Test results show an enhanced SNR performance of the SUBJECT DEVICE, while determined Image Uniformity compares well to the results from the PREDICATE DEVICE.
The SUBJECT DEVICE is conforming to:
- AAMI / ANSI ES60601-1:2005/(R)2012 and A1:2012, c1:2009/(r)2012 and . a2:2010/(r)2012 (consolidated text) medical electrical equipment - part 1: general requirements for safety and essential performance (iec 60601-1;2005, mod), (General II (ES/EMC)). FDA Recognition number: #19-4.

All safety tests were performed on GE MR Systems. The test results are approved by GE for proving the full system compatibility.
Clinical Tests
Clinical tests were performed in order to check image quality in vivo. Typical sequences for diagnosis were applied (T2 weighted, Propeller, DWI) with standard scan parameters and image orientations (axial and sagittal). Clinical tests show that the SUBJECT DEVICE provides adequate image quality (SNR, penetration depth, contrast, resolution and robustness against artifacts) as well as scan time and patient comfort are good.
Sample clinical images in DICOM format are provided as part of the discussion of the clinical tests submitted.
Conclusion as to Substantial Equivalence
Testing was performed to support this claim of substantial equivalence and to show that the modifications do not raise any new questions pertaining to safety and effectiveness.
The modifications did not affect the Indications for Use, the Intended Use and did not alter the Fundamental Scientific Technology.
RAPID Biomedical therefore believes the SUBJECT DEVICEs and the PREDICATE DEVICEs to be substantially equivalent (SE).
