The fMRI Hardware System is a stimulus presentation and response collection system intended to be used by trained professionals to facilitate auditory and visual stimulation to be used in functional MR Imaging (fMRI) based on BOLD contrast.
nordicAktiva is a stimulus presentation software intended to be used by trained professionals to facilitate auditory and visual stimulation to be used in functional MR imaging (fMRI) based on BOLD contrast. In addition, it records responses from the NordicNeuroLab ResponseGrips.
The device is indicated for use during BOLD fMRI examinations of individuals over 2 years of age. It is not intended for the diagnosis of disease or for the direct treatment of conditions.
nordicAktiva would be used in an MRI department of a hospital or clinic, when a functional MRI exam based on BOLD contrast is required involving the provision of visual or auditory stimulation to a subject inside the MRI scanner.
Indications for use as stated in the FDA summary.
