The intended use of the AtamATM System (comprised of two major subsystems: a MR head coil apparatus and a patient stabilization apparatus). in conjunction with a magnetic resonance (MR) imaging system, is the collection of MR data and images of the human brain before, during, and at the end of brain surgery, in a standard operating room, diagnostic MR rooms, or in a MR intra-operative room, while stabilizing the patient's head during neurosurgical procedures and imaging.
The patient head-stabilizing apparatus can also be used for other neurosurgical procedures requiring the patient's head to be stabilized or fixed.
The head coil can also be used as a standard diagnostic head coil for diagnostic MR imaging.
When interpreted by a trained physician, these images provide information that can be useful in determining diagnosis.
Indications for use as stated in the FDA summary.
