What is it indicated for?

The 1.5T Pelvic Imaging System is a receive-only coil intended for use as a Magnetic Resonance Diagnostic Device (MRDD) for high-resolution magnetic resonance imaging, including spectroscopy, of the human colon, cervix or prostate and surrounding pelvic tissue. The purpose of the interface device for the Pelvic Imaging System is to provide interface and support functions to allow the use of MEDRAD 1.5T disposable endorectal coils with GE Signa EXCITE 1.5T MRI scanner systems and body array coils. Only trained healthcare professionals are intended to operate this device.

Indications for use as stated in the FDA summary.
