What is it indicated for?

The MAGNETOM system 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, depending on optional local coils that have been configured with the system, the internal structure and/or function of the head, body, or extremities. Other physical parameters derived from the images and/or spectra may also be…

Read the full statement (131 words)

The MAGNETOM system 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, depending on optional local coils that have been configured with the system, the internal structure and/or function of the head, body, or extremities. Other physical parameters derived from the images and/or spectra may also be produced. Depending on the region of interest, contrast agents may be used. These images and/or spectra and the physical parameters derived from the images and/or spectra when interpreted by a trained physician yield information that may assist in diagnosis.

The MAGNETOM system may also be used for imaging during interventional procedures when performed with MR compatible devices such as in-room displays and MR Safe biopsy needles.

Indications for use as stated in the FDA summary.
