The document describes a standard MRI system and its hardware/software upgrades, with no mention of AI or ML capabilities for image processing, analysis, or interpretation.
No
The device is described as an imaging system used for diagnosis, surgery planning, or therapy planning, not for direct therapeutic intervention.
Yes
The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" section explicitly states that the images yield information useful in the "determination of a diagnosis."
No
The device description clearly states it is a 1.5 Tesla Magnetic Resonance Imaging System with physical components like a gradient amplifier, water-cooled gradient, ECG monitoring unit, and RF coil, indicating it is a hardware device with associated software.
Based on the provided text, 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, or tissue) to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening.
- Device Function: The description clearly states that the Elscint MR, Inc. Esteem Whole Body MR Imaging System is a Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) system. MRI is an in vivo imaging technique, meaning it produces images of the internal structures of the body without taking samples.
- Intended Use: The intended use is to produce images of the head, body, or extremities for interpretation by a trained physician to aid in diagnosis, surgery planning, or therapy planning. This is consistent with the use of an imaging device, not an IVD.
The device operates by using magnetic fields and radio waves to create images based on the properties of protons within the body, which is fundamentally different from the analysis of biological samples outside the body that characterizes IVDs.

Intended Use / Indications for Use
The Elscint MR, Inc. Esteem Whole Body MR Imaging System is a 1.5 Tesla Magnetic Resonance Imaging System designed as a general purpose whole-body MRI system for producing cross-sectional images of the internal structures of the head, body or extremities in transverse, sagittal, coronal or oblique planes. The images produced by the MR system reflect the spatial distribution of protons (hydrogen nuclei) and image appearance is determined by proton density, NMR relaxation times (T1 and T2) and flow. When interpreted by a trained physician, these images yield information that can be useful in determination of a diagnosis, surgery planning or therapy planning.
The Gyrex Esteem 1.5T MRI System is a general purpose whole-body MRI system that produces images of the internal structures of the head, body, or extremities. The indications for use are not dissimilar to established indications for use for other general purpose whole-body MRI systems. The established indications for use are that when interpreted by a trained physician, MRI can be useful in determination of a diagnosis. surgery planning, or therapy planning and is used in a clinic or hospital setting.
The SW Version 5.0 upgrade does not change or contain any additional indications for use.

The major components changed or updated over that described in the predicate device submission are:
- A higher performance gradient amplifier and a water-cooled gradient that when utilized together provide a peak strength of 29mT/M and a slew rate of 60mT/M/msec,
- An ECG monitoring unit to allow pulse sequences gated to the cardiac cvcle to provide cardiac and pulmonary images with reduced artifact from heart motion,
- The addition of a phased array spine RF coil for increased FOV coverage in the z-direction,
- Additional flexibility added to existing user interface software

§ 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.
