No
The document describes a receive-only RF coil for MRI and does not mention any AI or ML capabilities.
No
The device is used for obtaining diagnostic images for diagnosis, not for treating a disease or condition.
Yes
The device is described as a coil used for obtaining "diagnostic images of the vasculature and soft tissue anatomy" and notes that "When interpreted by a trained physician, these images yield information that can be useful in the determination of a diagnosis."
No
The device is described as a physical RF coil with coil elements and accessory electronics, which are hardware components.
Based on the provided information, this device is not an In Vitro Diagnostic (IVD).
Here's why:
- IVDs analyze samples taken from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue). The Flow 7000 Peripheral Vascular Coil is an external device used in Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) to obtain images of the body. It does not interact with or analyze biological samples.
- The intended use is to obtain diagnostic images. While these images are used for diagnosis, the device itself is a component of the imaging system, not a test that analyzes a biological sample.
The device is clearly described as an RF coil used in an MRI system to acquire images. This falls under the category of medical imaging devices, not in vitro diagnostics.

Intended Use / Indications for Use
The Flow 7000 Peripheral Vascular Coil is a receive-only quadrature-phased array RF coil, used for obtaining diagnostic images of the vasculature and soft tissue anatomy, extending from the abdomen to the foot region in Magnetic Resonance Imaging Systems. The indications for use are the same as for standard MR Imaging. The Flow 7000 Peripheral Vascular Coil is designed for use with the 1.5T Signa MRI scanner manufactured by GE Medical Systems.
The Flow 7000 Phased Array Peripheral Vascular Coil is designed to provide Magnetic Resonance Images of the abdominal aorta,peripheral vasculature and soft tissue anatomy. The Premier 7000 Phased Array Spine Coil is designed for use with the GE MR's Signa 1.5T scanner. Anatomic Regions: Abdominal Vasculature, Peripheral Vasculature and soft tissue Nuclei Excited: Hydrogen. The indications for use are the same as for standard imaging: The Signa 1.5T system is indicated for use as an NMR device that produces images that: (1) correspond to the distribution of protons exhibiting NMR signal, (2) depend upon NMR parameters (proton density, spin lattice relaxation time T1, spin-spin relaxation time T2) and (3) display the soft tissue structure of the head and whole body. When interpreted by a trained physician, these images yield information that can be useful in the determination of a diagnosis.

Device Description
The Flow 7000 Peripheral Vascular Coil is a 12 element quadrature, phased array, receive-only coil. The coil consists of two sections: an upper and lower section, which are positioned above and below the patient's body (lower torso and legs). The coil sections which contain the coil elements and accessory coil electronics, is enclosed to prevent any exposure to the patient or environment.

§ 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.

Dear Mr. Thomas:
We have reviewed your Section 510(k) notification of intent to market the device referenced above and we have determined the device is substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to 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 (Act). You may, therefore, market the device, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act. 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.
If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (Premarket Approval), it may be subject to such additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 895. A substantially equivalent determination assumes compliance with the Current Good Manufacturing Practice requirements, as set forth in the Quality System Regulation (OS) for Medical Devices: General regulation (21 CFR Part 820) and that, through periodic OS inspections, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) will verify such assumptions. Failure to comply with the GMP regulation may result in regulatory action. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register. Please note: this response to your premarket notification submission does not affect any obligation you might have under sections 542 of the Act for devices under the Electronic Product Radiation Control provisions, or other Federal laws or regulations.
This letter will allow you to begin marketing your device as described in your 510(k) premarket notification. The FDA finding of substantial equivalence of your device to a legally marketed predicate device results in a classification for your device and thus, permits your device to proceed to the market.
If you desire specific advice for your device on our labeling regulation (21 CFR Part 801 and additionally 809.10 for in vitro diagnostic devices), please contact the Office of Compliance at (301) 594-4613. Additionally, for questions on the promotion and advertising of your device, please contact the Office of Compliance at (301) 594-4639. Also, please note the regulation entitled, "Misbranding by reference to premarket notification" (21 CFR 807.97). Other general information on your responsibilities under the Act may be obtained from the Division of Small Manufacturers Assistance at its toll-free number (800) 638-2041 or (301) 443-6597 or at its Internet address "http://www.ida.gov/cdrh/dsmaldsmamain.html".
