What is it indicated for?
The MAGNETOM Verio is indicated for use as a magnetic resonance diagnostic device (MRDD) that produces transverse, sagittal, coronal and oblique cross sectional images, spectroscopic images and/or spectra, and that displays the internal structure and/or function of the head, body, or extremities. Depending on the region of interest, contrast agents may be used. These images and/or spectra when interpreted by a trained physician yield information that may assist in diagnosis.
The MAGNETOM Verio may also be used for imaging during interventional procedures when performed with MR compatible devices such as, in room display and MR-safe biopsy needles.
Indications for use as stated in the FDA summary.
