You may, therefore, market the device, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act. Although this letter refers to your product as a device, please be aware that some cleared products may instead be combination products. The 510(k) Premarket Notification Database located at https://www.accessdata.fda.gov/scripts/cdrh/cfdocs/cfpmn/pmn.cfm identifies combination product submissions. 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. Please note: CDRH does not evaluate information related to contract liability warranties. We remind you, however, that device labeling must be truthful and not misleading. If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (PMA), it may be subject to additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 898.

These images when interpreted by a trained physician yield information that may assist in diagnosis. #### Device Description The 16Ch Diagnostic Breast Coil (1.5 T 16Ch Diagnostic Breast Coil and 3.0 T 16Ch Diagnostic Breast Coil) is designed for use with a magnetic resonance (MR) system. The coil is designed to work in unison with the Body Coil (BC) of the MR system, which will excite the hydrogen (1H) nuclei with radio frequency (RF) magnetic fields, so that the coil may receive the resultant RF signal from the excited nuclei. The coil is designed as a receive-only coil for high resolution MR examination of breast. The coil housing features a curved surface for better adaption to the anatomical region of interest. The coil is receive-only (Rx) and consists of 16 independent single loop coil elements with integrated low noise preamplifiers and a connector to the GE 1.5 T MR Systems or the GE 3.0 T MR Systems. The coil is fixed tuned and matched to the typical load of a breast at the Larmor frequency of 1H at 1.5 T (63.9 MHz) or 3.0 T (127.7 MHz) respectively. Decoupling circuits are integrated in each single loop element providing a decoupling from the Body Coil of the MR System during transmission of the RF excitation pulse. The coil provides both, unilateral and bilateral images (Left, Right and Both) of the anatomy of interest. #### Equivalency Information RAPID Biomedical believes that the Subject Device is substantially equivalent to the cleared Predicate Device which is described in the following submission. | Predicate Device Name | Clearance Number | Date | |--------------------------------------------------------|------------------|------------| | 16ch Al Breast Coil 1.5T and 16ch Al<br>Breast Coil 3T | K083255 | 2008-11-21 | #### Summary of Technological Characteristics of the Subject Device as compared with the Predicate Device The proposed labelling is adjusted compared to the predicate device with respect to differing MR Systems, changes in the currently applicable standards and for better usability. Overall, the indications for use, the intended use and the coil technology and safety are substantially equivalent. {5}------------------------------------------------ Image /page/5/Picture/0 description: The image shows a logo for "RAPID Biomedical". The word "RAPID" is in large, bold, black letters, with the word "Biomedical" underneath it in a smaller font. A horizontal line separates the two words. Below the word "Biomedical" is the phrase "MR Coils - Made to Measure" in a smaller font. ## Traditional 510(k) Premarket Notification K181948 1.5 T 16Ch Diagnostic Breast Coil - P-H16LE-015-01811 3.0 T 16Ch Diagnostic Breast Coil - P-H16LE-030-01630 #### General Safety and Effectiveness Concerns The safety and performance parameters according to the FDA Guidance Document "Submission of Premarket Notifications for Magnetic Resonance Diagnostic Devices, issued on Nov. 18, 2016" are unaffected by the modifications described within this notification. #### Nonclinical Tests Nonclinical tests were performed on a loading phantom to evaluate the subject device concerning applicable imaging parameters Signal to Noise Ratio (SNR) and Image Uniformity. Test were conducted following NEMA Standards. Test results show an enhanced SNR performance of the subject device, while determined Image Uniformity compares well to the results from the predicate device. The subject device is conforming to: - AAMI / ANSI ES60601-1:2005/(R)2012 and A1:2012, c1:2009/(r)2012 and . a2:2010/(r)2012 (consolidated text) medical electrical equipment - part 1: general requirements for safety and essential performance (iec 60601-1:2005, mod).

FDA Recognition number: #12-288 All safety tests were performed on GE MR Systems. The test results are approved by GE for proving the full system compatibility. #### Clinical Tests Clinical tests were performed on volunteers in order to check image quality in vivo. Typical sequences for diagnosis were applied (Vibrant, DWI, CUBE T2-flex, FSE T2 with Aspir, FSPGR-T1) with standard scan parameters and image orientations (axial and sagittal). Clinical test show that the subject device provides adequate image quality (SNR, penetration depth, contrast, resolution and robustness against artifacts) as well as scan time and patient comfort are good. Sample clinical images (Dicoms) are provided as part of the discussion of the clinical tests submitted. {6}------------------------------------------------ Image /page/6/Picture/0 description: The image shows the logo for Rapid Biomedical.

The modifications did not affect the Indications for Use, the Intended Use and did not alter the Fundamental Scientific Technology. RAPID Biomedical therefore believes the subject devices and the Predicate Devices to be substantially equivalent (SE). Rimpar, 2018-11-15 Signature: Name: Christian Zimmermann (Official Correspondent)
