Intended Use

The NorthStar Mapping System is intended to aid interventional Cardiovascular Magnetic Resonance Imaging (iCMRI) procedures, including electrophysiology procedures, by providing a 3D environment in which MR images, devices, and procedure-related data are displayed.

Technology

The system consists of a computer and application software that communicates with a compatible MR scanner and an EP Recorder/Stimulator system during electrophysiological procedures. It provides real-time MRI images, 3D anatomical representations, device tracking, electroanatomical maps, and ablation point visualization, enabling procedure planning, guidance, and assessment.

Performance

Software verification and validation testing demonstrated that the NorthStar Mapping System performs as intended. Human factors testing confirmed safe use. All issues from testing were resolved, supporting substantial equivalence to the predicate device.
