The logo consists of the letters 'GE' intertwined within a circle. There are three small, stylized swirls or dots evenly spaced around the perimeter of the circle, adding a decorative element to the design. ## GE Healthcare 510(k) Premarket Notification Submission Device Description: The GEM Option for 1.5T MRI systems consists of a set integrated receive-only RF coils designed for use with 1.5T MRI systems manufactured by GE Healthcare. This coil set includes a head and neurovascular array, an anterior imaging array, a peripheral-vascular lower leg array, and a posterior imaging array integrated into the MR table for complete head-to-foot coverage. The coils can be used individually or combined to provide the anatomical coverage desired. The combined use of the entire GEM suite will facilitate high-resolution, high-SNR whole-body imaging from the top of the head down to the feet. The GEM Option for 1.5T MRI systems is a set of Intended Use: receive-only RF surface coils designed for use with 1.5T MRI systems manufactured by GE Healthcare. The GEM Option for 1.5T MRI systems is indicated for use for: head, neck, brachial-plexus, spine, pelvis, hips, prostate, abdominal, cardiac, lower extremities, blood vessels, and long bone imaging. The nucleus detected is hydrogen. Technology: Comparison with Optima MR450w (K091536): The GEM Option for 1.5T MRI systems replaces the existing MR table with the GEM table. The system operates on the same principles with workflow improvement by reducing the need to change coils. {2}------------------------------------------------ Image /page/2/Picture/0 description: The image shows the General Electric (GE) logo. The logo consists of the letters "GE" intertwined in a stylized, cursive font. The letters are enclosed within a circular border, which has three small, decorative swirls evenly spaced around its perimeter. The logo is black and white. ## GE Healthcare 510(k) Premarket Notification Submission Determination of Substantial Equivalence: Summary of Non-Clinical Tests: The GEM Option for 1.5T MRI systems has integrated surface coils to accommodate the improved workflow. The same non-clinical voluntary standards are used to demonstrate substantial equivalence of safety and performance: IEC 60601-1: Electrical Safety - compliant with all applicable sections IEC 60601-1-2: Electromagnetic Compatibility - compliant with all applicable sections (i.e. electrostatic discharge) IEC 60601-2-33: Electrical Safety – compliant with all applicable sections ISO 10993-1: Biocompatibility -- determination of post market acceptability of materials Clinical images are used to demonstrate substantial equivalence of performance. Conclusion: GE Healthcare considers the GEM Option for 1.5T MRI systems to be as safe, as effective, and performance is substantially equivalent to the predicate device. {3}------------------------------------------------ Image /page/3/Picture/0 description: The image shows the logo for the U.S. Department of Health & Human Services.

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 class II (Special Controls), it may be subject to such additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in Title 21, Code of Federal Regulations (CFR), Parts 800 to 895. 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 Parts 801 and 809); medical device reporting (reporting of {4}------------------------------------------------ medical device-related adverse events) (21 CFR 803); and good manufacturing practice requirements as set forth in the quality systems (QS) regulation (21 CFR Part 820). This letter will allow you to begin marketing your device as described in your Section 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 Parts 801 and 809), please contact the Office of In Vitro Diagnostic Device Evaluation and Safety at (301) 796-5450. Also, please note the regulation entitled, "Misbranding by reference to premarket notification" (21 CFR Part 807.97). For questions regarding the reporting of adverse events under the MDR regulation (21 CFR Part 803), please go to http://www.fda.gov/MedicalDevices/Safety/ReportaProblem/default.htm for the CDRH's Office of Surveillance and Biometrics/Division of Postmarket Surveillance.
