What is it indicated for?

The Picker MR Spectroscopy Package is intended for use as a non-invasive diagnostic device that provides information based on relative concentrations of metabolites in body tissues. This NMR data in the form of spectra or spectral images reflect the NMR properties of proton density, spin-lattice relaxation time (T1), spin-spin relaxation time (T2), and chemical shift. When interpreted by a trained medical practitioner, these spectral data provide information that can be useful in making a diagnosis.

This package is indicated for use as follows:

Anatomical region: Head, whole body

Nuclei Excited: 'H

Indications for use read by OCR from a scanned FDA summary, so letters may be misread. Check the PDF before quoting it.
