The Cordless coil is a receive type surface coil.

When used in the MAGNETOM Concerto and C! MR systems, it is indicated for use as a diagnostic imaging device to produce transverse, sagittal, coronal and oblique images of internal structures of the brain and body surface.

The images produced reflect the spatial distribution of protons exhibiting magnetic resonance. Spectra allow the molecules containing the nucleus under investigation to be distinguished. The NMR properties that determine the image and spectra appearance are spin density, spin-lattice relaxation time (TI), and the spin-spin echo time (T2) of the corresponding nucleus.

When interpreted by a trained physician, these images and spectra provide information that can be useful in making diagnoses.

Indications for use as stated in the FDA summary.
