Intended Use
The MRI diagnostic Device is indicated for use as a diagnostic imaging device that produces transverse, sagittal, coronal and oblique cross-sectional images display the internal structure of the body regions for which it is indicated (shoulder, elbow, hand, wrist, foot, ankle, knee, hip, calf, thigh, arm, forearm, Temporo Mandibular Joint, C-spine, L-Spine with limitation to joint pathologies, no tumors, no angiography). The images produced reflect the spatial distribution of protons (hydrogen nuclei) exhibiting magnetic resonance. The MR parameters that determine image appearance are proton density, spin-lattice relaxation time (TI), spin-spin relaxation time (T2), chemical shift and flow velocity. When interpreted by a trained physician, these images can yield information that can be useful in the determination of a diagnosis.
Device Description
The Upgrade Kit MR GUI PRO is a kit containing HW and SW to upgrade previously cleared installed models (K033507, K100164, K122034) to the state of the art. MrJ 3300 Plus is the commercial name of the same Upgrade Kit when integrated in factory on newly manufactured K122034+this change. The modification introduces an internally developed User Interface 0 and upgrades computer/spectrometer hardware to the state of the art to run user interface 0. The produced images will still reflect the spatial distribution of protons (hydrogen nuclei) exhibiting magnetic resonance. The MR parameters that determine image appearance are proton density, spin-lattice relaxation time (TI), spin-spin relaxation time (T2), chemical shift and flow velocity.
More Information

No
The summary describes a hardware and software upgrade to an existing MRI system, primarily focusing on a new user interface and updated computer/spectrometer hardware. There is no mention of AI, ML, or related concepts like image processing algorithms that would typically indicate the presence of such technology. The performance studies are standard nonclinical tests (ACR tests) for MRI systems, not studies evaluating AI/ML performance.

No
The device is described as a "diagnostic imaging device that produces transverse, sagittal, coronal and oblique cross-sectional images display the internal structure of the body regions." Its purpose is to "yield information that can be useful in the determination of a diagnosis," not to treat or cure a disease or condition.

Yes
The device is described as an "MRI diagnostic Device" and its images "can yield information that can be useful in the determination of a diagnosis."

No

The device description explicitly states that the "Upgrade Kit MR GUI PRO is a kit containing HW and SW". This indicates the presence of both hardware and software components, not just software.

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 for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening.
  • Device Function: The description clearly states that this device is an MRI diagnostic device that produces images of the internal structure of the body. It works by detecting the spatial distribution of protons exhibiting magnetic resonance.
  • No Specimen Analysis: There is no mention of analyzing any biological specimens taken from the patient. The device directly interacts with the patient's body to generate images.

Therefore, this device falls under the category of in vivo diagnostic imaging devices, not in vitro diagnostics.

N/A

Intended Use / Indications for Use

The MRI diagnostic Device is indicated for use as a diagnostic imaging device that produces transverse, sagittal, coronal and oblique cross-sectional images display the internal structure of the body regions for which it is indicated (shoulder, elbow, hand, wrist, foot, ankle, knee, hip, calf, thigh, arm, forearm, Temporo Mandibular Joint, C-spine, L-Spine with limitation to joint pathologies, no tumors, no angiography).

The images produced reflect the spatial distribution of protons (hydrogen nuclei) exhibiting magnetic resonance. The MR parameters that determine image appearance are proton density, spin-lattice relaxation time (TI), spin-spin relaxation time (T2), chemical shift and flow velocity. When interpreted by a trained physician, these images can yield information that can be useful in the determination of a diagnosis.

K033507, K100164, K122034 produced, produce and will produce transverse, sagittal, coronal and oblique cross-sectional images that display the internal structure of the anatomies.

The same change when applied to new manufactured units which correspond to K122034+this proposed change will be identified with a new commercial name which is MrJ 3300 Plus

The images produced reflect the spatial distribution of protons (hydrogen nuclei) exhibiting magnetic resonance.

The MR parameters that determine image appearance are proton density, spin-lattice relaxation time (TI), spin-spin relaxation time (T2), chemical shift and flow velocity. When interpreted by a trained physician, these images can yield information that can be useful in the determination of a diagnosis.

Intended population is for Patients less than 200 Kg
