## Indications for use
The EchoStar 1.5 T MR System is a whole-body magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) system intended for general diagnostic use. Sagittal, coronal and oblique [text illegible] be imaged. MRI images produced by the EchoStar system reflect the spatial distribution of hydrogen nuclei (protons), spin-lattice relaxation time (T1), spin-spin relaxation time (T2), and fluid flow. When interpreted by a trained physician, these images yield information that can be useful in the determining of a diagnosis. This device is intended for prescription use only.
