Not Found

No
The summary explicitly states "Mentions AI, DNN, or ML: Not Found" and the description focuses on hardware and software upgrades for image quality without mentioning AI/ML.

No
The device is described as an imaging system used for visualization, indicating it is a diagnostic tool rather than a therapeutic one.

Yes
The device is described as "Imaging of the whole body" and states "Sample phantom images and clinical images were presented," indicating its purpose is to create images that healthcare professionals can use for diagnosis.

No

The device description explicitly states it consists of hardware components (gradient field strength, computer architecture, magnet) in addition to software upgrades.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly describes imaging of various parts of the body using Magnetic Resonance technology. This is a diagnostic imaging device, not a device used to examine specimens (like blood, urine, or tissue) outside of the body.
  • Device Description: The description details a Magnetic Resonance system, which is a piece of medical imaging equipment.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of analyzing biological samples, reagents, or any other components typically associated with in vitro diagnostics.

In vitro diagnostics are tests performed on samples taken from the human body to detect diseases, conditions, or infections. This device is used to create images of the body itself.

§ 892.1000 Magnetic resonance diagnostic device.

(a)
Identification. A magnetic resonance diagnostic device is intended for general diagnostic use to present images which reflect the spatial distribution and/or magnetic resonance spectra which reflect frequency and distribution of nuclei exhibiting nuclear magnetic resonance. Other physical parameters derived from the images and/or spectra may also be produced. The device includes hydrogen-1 (proton) imaging, sodium-23 imaging, hydrogen-1 spectroscopy, phosphorus-31 spectroscopy, and chemical shift imaging (preserving simultaneous frequency and spatial information).(b)
Classification. Class II (special controls). A magnetic resonance imaging disposable kit intended for use with a magnetic resonance diagnostic device only is exempt from the premarket notification procedures in subpart E of part 807 of this chapter subject to the limitations in § 892.9.
