Intended Use

The dS Wrist Coil 8ch 1.5T is intended to be used in conjunction with Philips 1.5T Magnetic Resonance Scanner to produce diagnostic images of the wrist that can be interpreted by a trained physician.

Technology

An 8-channel phased-array coil with rigid volume coils of 8 elements that closely encircle the wrist for high signal-to-noise ratio (SNR). The coil features a one-piece hinged design to facilitate patient set-up and includes a rigid base plate to reduce motion artifacts. Compatible with Philips Prodiva and MR5300 1.5T MR systems, utilizing energy from the MR scanner for imaging.

Performance

The device underwent extensive non-clinical testing including electrical and mechanical safety (IEC 60601-1), electromagnetic compatibility, image uniformity and signal-to-noise ratio testing (NEMA-MS standards), biological safety evaluation (ISO 10993-1), and cleaning validation (ISO 17664). Clinical testing involved board-certified radiologists reviewing image quality to confirm sufficiency for diagnostic use. These tests demonstrated safety and effective performance equivalent to predicate devices.
