MR Elastography consists of Acoustic Driver System including Active Driver, Passive Driver, QA Phantom and Other parts, TTL trigger converter includes AC adaptor, Manuals and Software (License). By MRI scanning while applying vibration from the Acoustic Driver System, it is possible to obtain an image that reflects the stiffness of the body tissue in kPa. The sequence to be used with Acoustic Driver System is FE2D or SE-EPI2D. The MRI scanner outputs the following images from the acquired phase image and magnitude image. - · Wave image - · Stiffness image (capable of registration and display in color image format) - · Confidence image (capable of superimposing confidence image on the stiffness image)
More Information

No
The summary describes an estimation algorithm (2D Multi-Modality Direct Inversion (MMDI) algorithm) for calculating tissue stiffness, but does not mention or imply the use of AI or ML techniques. The performance studies focus on traditional statistical analysis (linear regression, Bland Altman) of measured vs. reference values.

No.
The device obtains an image that reflects tissue stiffness; it does not treat or alleviate a medical condition.

Yes
The device obtains an image that reflects the stiffness of body tissue (in kPa), and can output a stiffness image. This information is used for diagnostic purposes.

No

The device description explicitly states that the MR Elastography package includes hardware components such as an Acoustic Driver System (Active Driver, Passive Driver, QA Phantom, Other parts) and a TTL trigger converter (including AC adaptor), in addition to the software license.

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. They are used to examine these samples outside of the body.
  • Device Function: This device is an optional package for an MRI system. It works by applying vibrations to the body during an MRI scan and then processing the resulting images to determine tissue stiffness. This is an in vivo (within the living body) measurement, not an in vitro test on a sample.
  • Intended Use: The intended use is to obtain an image that reflects the stiffness of body tissue such as liver and muscle. This is a measurement taken directly from the patient's body.

Therefore, while this device provides diagnostic information, it does so through an in vivo imaging technique, not an in vitro test.

19. INDICATIONS FOR USE

MR Elastography is an optional package for Canon Medical Systems magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) systems. This option allows the user to obtain an image that reflects the stiffness, in kPa, of body tissue such as liver and muscle.

20. SUMMARY OF DESIGN CONTROL ACTIVITIES

Risk Management activities for new software functionality is included in this submission. A declaration of conformity with design controls is included in this submission.

21. SAFETY

This device is designed and manufactured under the Quality System Regulations as outlined in 21 CFR § 820 and ISO 13485 Standards.

This modification is based upon the same technologies, materials, and software as the target Canon MRI systems. Risk activities were conducted in concurrence with established medical device development standards and guidance.

22. TECHNOLOGICAL CHARACTERISTICS:

MR Elastography contains both hardware and software elements. The hardware elements are supplied by Resoundant, Inc. (K201389) and consist of an active driver positioned outside the magnet room and a passive driver positioned on the scan subject. The MR Elastography software postprocessing package was based on an estimation algorithm provided by the Mayo Clinic and Resoundant, Inc. and the final MR Elastography software was developed in conjunction with The Mayo Clinic and Resoundant, Inc. The Philips MR Elastography (K140666) and Achieva, Intera, Ingenia, Ingenia CX, Ingenia Elition, and Ingenia Ambition MR Systems (K193215) contain the same hardware elements provided by Resoundant, Inc. and used the same estimation algorithm and worked in conjunction with the Mayo Clinic and Resoundant, Inc. to develop the final software. The GE IDEAL IQ SOFTWARE OPTION (K103411) and MR-TOUCH OPTION (K083421), and the SIEMENS SOFTWARE SYNGO MR D13A FOR THE MAGNETOM SYSTEMS AERA/SKYRA/AVANTO/VERIO (K121434) and MAGNETOM AERA WITH SOFTWARE SYNGO MR E11A, MAGNETOM SKYRA WITH SOFTWARE SYNGO MR E11A, MAGNETOM SKYRA WITH 24 RF CHANNEL (K141977) are as well.

The phase contrast imaging sequences to be used for the MR Elastography data process are substantially equivalent to the existing phase contrast imaging sequences which was previously cleared Vantage Orian 1.5T, MRT-1550, V7.0 (K211633, K203053) and Vantage Galan 3T, MRT-3020, V7.0 (K212056). The acquisition, processing and output images are substantially equivalent to the previously cleared predicate, Philips MR Elastography (K140666) and Achieva, Intera, Ingenia CX, Ingenia Elition, and Ingenia Ambition MR Systems (K193215). As with the above predicate, the MR Elastography option provides for a sensitive phase-contrast acquisition synchronized with the vibration supplied by the Resoundant hardware. This captures images of the tissue displacements, which are then input to an algorithm to estimate tissue stiffness.

23. TESTING

MR Elastography (MRE) performance testing (bench testing), using three Resoundant-provided calibration phantoms having known stiffness values representing the expected clinical range, was conducted to measure tissue stiffness, based on the 2D Multi-Modality Direct Inversion (MMDI) algorithm. The phantoms were scanned 5 times per day, multiple days per scanner, on 2 different 1.5T and 2 different 3T scanners by FE2D and SE-EPI2D techniques. Results of the study demonstrated that a calculated slope of measured stiffness mean value and reference stiffness value by linear regression analysis as well as a 95% confidence limit of measured vs. reference value, by Bland Altman analysis were within the acceptance criteria of 1.0±0.1 (slope) and 95% confidence limits within ±10%.

24. SUBSTANTIAL EQUIVALENCE

Canon Medical Systems Corporation believes that the MR Elastography is substantially equivalent to the previously cleared predicate device, MR Elastography (K140666), MR Elastography of Achieva, Intera, Ingenia, Ingenia CX, Ingenia Elition, and Ingenia Ambition MR Systems (K193215), using with Canon MRI systems, referenced in this submission.

Canon Medical Systems Corporation believes that the MR Elastography option added to Canon MRI systems are substantially equivalent to the previously cleared predicate device.

25. CONCLUSION

The MR Elastography indications for use along with, technological characteristics, safety and performance testing, verifies that the subject device meets the requirements that are considered adequate for its intended use and is substantially equivalent in design, principles of operation and indications for use to the predicate and reference devices.
