## Indications for Use

Philips Magnetic Resonance (MR) systems are Medical Electrical Systems indicated for use as a diagnostic device. This MR system enables trained physicians to obtain cross-sectional images, spectroscopic images and/or spectra of the internal structure of the head, body or extremities, in any orientation, representing the spatial distribution of protons or other nuclei with spin. Image appearance is determined by many different physical properties of the tissue and the anatomy, the MR scan technique applied, and presence of contrast agents. The use of contrast agents for diagnostic imaging applications should be performed consistent with the approved labeling for the contrast agent. The trained clinical user can adjust the MR scan parameters to customize image appearance, accelerate image acquisition, and synchronize with the patient's breathing or cardiac cycle. The systems can use combinations of images to produce physical parameters, and related derived images. Images, spectra, and measurements of physical parameters, when interpreted by a trained physician, provide information that may assist diagnosis and therapy planning. The accuracy of determined physical parameters depends on system and scan parameters and must be controlled and validated by the clinical user. In addition, the Philips MR systems provide imaging capabilities, such as MR fluoroscopy, to guide and evaluate interventional and minimally invasive procedures in the head, body and extremities. MR Interventional procedures, performed inside or adjacent to the Philips MR system, must be performed with MR Conditional or MR Safe instrumentation as selected and evaluated by the clinical user for use with the specific MR system configuration in the hospital. The appropriateness and use of information from a Philips MR system for a specific interventional procedure and specific MR system configuration must be validated by the clinical user.

## Device Story

MR diagnostic systems (1.5T and 3.0T; 60cm/70cm bore) utilize magnetic resonance phenomenon; atomic nuclei emit relaxation signals in strong magnetic fields when excited by radio signals. System transforms signals into cross-sectional images/spectra via computed reconstruction. Operated by trained physicians/technicians in clinical settings. Software updates include: 1) severe gradient malfunction detection (locks system if error frequency exceeds thresholds); 2) smoke detector software support for 70cm bore systems; 3) SENSE XL Torso Coil workflow extensions (monitors coil temperature, enforces cool-down periods, provides operator guidance). Output viewed by physicians for diagnosis and therapy planning. Benefits include enhanced safety monitoring, reduced fire risk, and improved coil thermal management.

## Clinical Evidence

No clinical data. Substantial equivalence supported by non-clinical performance testing, including verification and validation of software changes, risk management, and compliance with international consensus standards (IEC 60601-1-6, IEC 62304, ISO 14971).

## Technological Characteristics

1.5T and 3.0T MR systems; 60cm/70cm bore. Components: magnet, transmit body coil, gradient coil/amplifier, RF amplifier, patient support. Software: safety-critical interlocks and monitoring. Standards: IEC 60601-1-6 (usability), ANSI AAMI IEC 62304 (software lifecycle), ANSI AAMI ISO 14971 (risk management).

## Regulatory 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).

## Special Controls

*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.

In addition, the temperature information is used to guide the operator suggesting it is advised to stop the examination and enforce cool down to enable the operator to stay within acceptable temperature limits during an examination. | Equivalent
The implementation of additional operator guidance on the usage of the SENSE XL Torso coil and monitoring of the temperature does not impact the intended use of the device, nor does it raise any new questions of safety and effectiveness.  |
