The Philips Endo-Cavitary MRI Coil was cleared through the FDA 510(k) pathway on June 24, 1994. It is manufactured by Philips Medical Systems and is classified as a Class 2 device.
What It Is
The Philips Endo-Cavitary MRI Coil is a specialized coil designed to improve the quality of MRI images of internal body cavities, such as the rectum or vagina. By being placed closer to the area of interest, it enhances signal reception, resulting in clearer and more detailed images. This device is particularly useful in diagnosing and monitoring conditions within these cavities.
Clinical Applications
This device is commonly used in radiology departments for detailed imaging of pelvic organs, including the prostate and uterus. It is particularly valuable in oncology for detecting and staging tumors. The coil is used in both outpatient and inpatient settings, catering to adult patients who require detailed internal imaging.
Indications for Use
The FDA indications for the Philips Endo-Cavitary MRI Coil include its use in obtaining high-resolution images of internal cavities. It is intended for patients who need detailed imaging of areas like the prostate or pelvic organs, often for cancer diagnosis or monitoring.
Practical Considerations
The coil is designed to be compatible with most MRI machines, but it requires careful handling and positioning for optimal image quality. Clinicians should ensure proper sterilization and patient comfort during its use. The device's size and shape are tailored to fit comfortably within the body cavity being imaged.
