This submission consists of three upgrades to the MRT-150/H1 and MRT-150/F1 (VISART™) system. The first upgrades the software from V3.1 (which was the software cleared with the VISART™ in K961092) to V3.5. The second is the introduction of the VISART™/Hyper system, which increases the gradient field strength over that of the standard VISART™ with V3.5 software. The third is the introduction of optional phased array coils.
The provided text describes a 510(k) summary for a Magnetic Resonance Device (MRT-150/H1, MRT-150/F1, MRT-150/H2, MRT-150/F2, marketed as VISART and VISART/Hyper). It introduces upgrades to the software (from V3.1 to V3.5) and hardware (VISART/Hyper system with increased gradient field strength and optional phased array coils).
Here's an analysis based on the information provided, specifically addressing the questions you've posed:
1. Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance:
The document describes safety and imaging performance parameters for the device. While explicit "acceptance criteria" for a study aren't clearly defined as pass/fail thresholds in the typical sense for a clinical study, the specifications listed for the upgraded devices represent the targeted performance that was demonstrated to be met.
Parameter (Acceptance Criteria) | Reported Device Performance (VISART™ V3.5) | Reported Device Performance (VISART™/Hyper V3.5) |
---|---|---|
Max static field strength | 1.5T | 1.5T |
Rate of change of magnetic field (τ = 1000ms) | 13.3T/sec | 19.5T/sec |

§ 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.
