No
The document describes a standard MRI system and its components. There is no mention of AI, ML, or advanced image processing techniques that would typically indicate the use of such technologies. The focus is on the hardware, software for image acquisition (pulse sequences), and basic image display.
No
The device is described as a magnetic resonance imaging device used for producing images to aid in diagnosis, not for therapy.
Yes
Explanation: The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" section states that the system "produces images that can be useful in determining a diagnosis." This directly indicates its role in the diagnostic process.
No
The device description explicitly details hardware components such as a magnet system, gradient system, radio frequency (RF) system, spectrometer system, temperature control system, and an integrated transceive RF head coil, indicating it is a physical MRI system, not software-only.
Based on the provided information, the NIDO Baby Magnetic Resonance Imaging System is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic) device.
Here's why:
- IVD devices are used to examine specimens obtained from the human body. This includes things like blood, urine, tissue samples, etc. The tests are performed in vitro (in glass, or outside the body).
- The NIDO Baby Magnetic Resonance Imaging System is an imaging device. It produces images of the internal structure of the neonatal or infant head in vivo (within the living body) using magnetic resonance technology.
The description clearly states that the device is a "magnetic resonance imaging device" and describes how it works by interacting with the patient's body directly to produce images. There is no mention of analyzing biological specimens.

Intended Use / Indications for Use
The NIDO Baby Magnetic Resonance Imaging System is indicated for use as a magnetic resonance imaging device for producing axial, sagittal, coronal and oblique images that displays the internal structure of neonatal or infant head. When interpreted by a trained physician, these images provide information that can be useful in determining a diagnosis. The NIDO Baby Magnetic Resonance Imaging System is applicable to neonatal or infant head with circumference of up to 50 cm and weight up to 15Kg.

Device Description
The NIDO Baby Magnetic Resonance Imaging System, model LCM-MRI-3500-01A, is a specialized open-type MRI system designed for neonatal and infant head imaging. The system utilized a 0.35 Tesla (T) permanent magnet to acquire 2D single-slice, multi-slice, and 3D volume images of the brain.
Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) is a non-invasive medical imaging technique that uses strong magnetic fields, radio waves, and a computer to produce detailed images of the internal structures of the body. Unlike X-rays or CT scans, MRI does not use ionizing radiation. Instead, it relies on the magnetic properties of atoms in the body, particularly hydrogen atoms, which are abundant in water and fat. When a patient is placed inside the MRI machine, the powerful magnets that create a strong magnetic field around the patient causes hydrogen atoms in the body to align with the field. Once the hydrogen atoms are aligned, radio waves are sent into the body. These waves temporarily disrupt the alignment of the hydrogen atoms. When the radio waves are turned off, the hydrogen atoms return to their original alignment, emitting signals in the process. These signals are detected by the MRI machine and converted into detailed images of the body's internal structures.
The NIDO Baby Magnetic Resonance Imaging System features a 0.35T permanent magnet with an open U-shaped structure, optimized for MR head imaging of neonatal and infant patients. Key components include the magnet system, gradient system, radio frequency (RF) system, spectrometer system, temperature control system and clinical imaging software. The system's gradient field strength is ≤32 mT/m with a slew rate of ≤107 T/m/s. Integrated transceive RF head coil also functions as a patient table, operating within a resonance frequency range of 14.6 MHz to 14.9 MHz is used to acquired MR images and to provide patient safety and comfort during scanning. The high-performance computer console is installed with clinical imaging software, which includes a variety of pulse sequences, such as Spin Echo, Fast Spin Echo, Fast Low Angle Shot Gradient Echo, Fluid-Attenuated Inversion Recovery and Diffusion-Weighted Imaging for Proton Density, T1 weighted, T2 weighted and Diffusion imaging.

Dear Rachel Yu:
We have reviewed your section 510(k) premarket notification of intent to market the device referenced above and have determined the device is substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to legally marketed predicate devices marketed in interstate commerce prior to May 28, 1976, the enactment date of the Medical Device Amendments, or to devices that have been reclassified in accordance with the provisions of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (the Act) that do not require approval of a premarket approval application (PMA). You may, therefore, market the device, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act. Although this letter refers to your product as a device, please be aware that some cleared products may instead be combination products. The 510(k) Premarket Notification Database available at https://www.accessdata.fda.gov/scripts/cdrh/cfdocs/cfpmn/pmn.cfm identifies combination product submissions. The general controls provisions of the Act include requirements for annual registration, listing of devices, good manufacturing practice, labeling, and prohibitions against misbranding and adulteration. Please note: CDRH does not evaluate information related to contract liability warranties. We remind you, however, that device labeling must be truthful and not misleading.
If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (PMA), it may be subject to additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 898. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register.

Please be advised that FDA's issuance of a substantial equivalence determination does not mean that FDA has made a determination that your device complies with other requirements of the Act or any Federal statutes and regulations administered by other Federal agencies. You must comply with all the Act's requirements, including, but not limited to: registration and listing (21 CFR Part 807); labeling (21 CFR Part 801); medical device reporting of medical device-related adverse events) (21 CFR Part 803) for devices or postmarketing safety reporting (21 CFR Part 4, Subpart B) for combination products (see https://www.fda.gov/combination-products/guidance-regulatory-information/postmarketing-safety-reportingcombination-products); good manufacturing practice requirements as set forth in the quality systems (QS) regulation (21 CFR Part 820) for devices or current good manufacturing practices (21 CFR Part 4, Subpart A) for combination products; and, if applicable, the electronic product radiation control provisions (Sections 531-542 of the Act); 21 CFR Parts 1000-1050.
All medical devices, including Class I and unclassified devices and combination product device constituent parts are required to be in compliance with the final Unique Device Identification System rule ("UDI Rule"). The UDI Rule requires, among other things, that a device bear a unique device identifier (UDI) on its label and package (21 CFR 801.20(a)) unless an exception or alternative applies (21 CFR 801.20(b)) and that the dates on the device label be formatted in accordance with 21 CFR 801.18. The UDI Rule (21 CFR 830.300(a) and 830.320(b)) also requires that certain information be submitted to the Global Unique Device Identification Database (GUDID) (21 CFR Part 830 Subpart E). For additional information on these requirements, please see the UDI System webpage at https://www.fda.gov/medical-device-advicecomprehensive-regulatory-assistance/unique-device-identification-system-udi-system.
