## Indications for use
The intended use of the Performance Package is to enable the permanent magnet based MRI systems designed by Paramed (MrJ and MrJ Inspire) to perfornn MR scan of the following districts: C-Spine one dedicated coil (code 0 1-2023), L-Spine two sizes of dedicated coils (codes 01-202 1 and 01-2022), all other joints using a linear single channel coil named ME_wrap (code 01-2024) which is not aimed to specific districts but can fit most joints (such as, for instance, knee, foot, ankle, elbow, wrist, hand ... ). The Performance Package inherits the same limitations of the System to which it is applied which is: only joint pathologies (no tumor, no angiography). The Performance Package enables the MRI System to which it is applied to acquire images of the districts being diagnosed in transverse, sagittal, coronal and oblique cross-sectional directions. The images which are produced correspond to spatial distribution of protons (hydrogen nuclei) that check the magnetic resonance properties and depend upon MR parameters (spin-lattice relaxation time (TI), spin-spin relaxation te ff2), nuclei density, flow velocity and chemical shift). If interpreted by a medical expert, these images can provide diagnostically usefuil information.
