Questions
AI-generated answers, 20 Sep 2026
What is the primary purpose of the Coil Field Extender in MRI settings?
The Coil Field Extender is designed to enhance MRI imaging by extending the magnetic field coverage of MRI coils. This improves imaging uniformity and quality, particularly in radiology applications where consistent field strength is critical for diagnostic accuracy.
Is the Coil Field Extender reusable or single-use, and does it require sterilization?
The Coil Field Extender is supplied as a reusable accessory for MRI systems. Since it is reusable, it does not require sterilization before use. However, it should be handled according to facility protocols to ensure compatibility with MRI environments and maintain safety standards.
What regulatory pathway was followed for the FDA clearance of this device?
The Coil Field Extender received FDA clearance through a 510(k) submission, specifically under the Traditional clearance type. It was determined to be substantially equivalent to a predicate device and falls under the Radiology advisory committee (RA). The clearance number is K911800, and it adheres to regulatory standards outlined in 21 CFR 892.1000.
How is the Coil Field Extender compatible with MRI systems, and are there any special considerations for use?
The Coil Field Extender is designed as an accessory for MRI systems and is explicitly compatible with MRI environments. While it does not require sterilization, its use should align with facility-specific MRI safety protocols to ensure proper integration with existing coils and imaging workflows. Compatibility is validated for various MRI systems, as indicated by the associated product code (LNH) and regulatory filings.
