SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

I. Background

    The purpose of this guidance is to provide a detailed description 
of the information that should be included in a premarket notification 
for an MRDD. This guidance is a recommendation of how to comply with 
certain requirements contained in 21 CFR 807.87 and is intended to be 
used in conjunction with information regarding the content and format 
of a 510(k) premarket notification. The approach outlined in this 
guidance document is intended to facilitate the timely review and 
marketing clearance of MRDDs.
    MRDDs are also electronic products under section 531(2) (21 U.S.C. 
360hh(2)) of Subchapter C (Electronic Product Radiation Control (EPRC)) 
of the Federal Food, Drug and Cosmetic Act (FD&C Act). As such, MRDDs 
are subject to the radiological health requirements in Title 21, 
Subchapter J, parts 1000 through 1050 of the Code of Federal 
Regulations, including applicability of general and specific 
performance standards (parts 1010-1050) and other general requirements 
for reporting and recordkeeping (part 1002), notification and 
corrective actions for defective or non-compliant electronic products 
(parts 1003 and 1004), and importation (part 1005).
    This guidance is applicable to MRDDs as defined in 21 CFR 892.1000. 
An MRDD is intended for general diagnostic use to present images that 
reflect the spatial distribution and/or magnetic resonance spectra that 
reflect frequency and distribution of nuclei exhibiting nuclear 
magnetic resonance. Other physical parameters derived from the images 
and/or spectra may also be produced. The device includes hydrogen-1 
(proton) imaging, sodium-23 imaging, hydrogen-1 spectroscopy, 
phosphorus-31 spectroscopy, and chemical shift imaging (preserving 
simultaneous frequency and spatial information). MRDDs are class II 
medical devices that require premarket notification and an agency 
determination of substantial equivalence prior to marketing.
    The principal components of current MRDDs include the main magnet, 
shim and gradient systems, radiofrequency transmitter and receiver, 
transmit and receive coils, power supplies, computer and software, 
patient supports, and physiological gating devices. This guidance 
document is applicable to

[[Page 81785]]

premarket notifications for new magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and 
magnetic resonance spectroscopy systems, components, and accessories, 
and modifications to systems, components, and accessories that could 
significantly affect the safety or effectiveness of the MRDD. The 
information in this guidance document is also applicable to the MRI 
system components of dual-modality devices, such as positron emission 
tomography/MRI systems.
    In the Federal Register of July 14, 2015 (80 FR 41046), FDA 
announced the availability of the draft guidance and interested persons 
were invited to comment by October 13, 2015. FDA has considered the 
comments received, and has incorporated changes suggested by the 
comments, as appropriate.
    This guidance supersedes FDA's guidance entitled ``Guidance for 
Industry: Guidance for the Submissions of Premarket Notifications for 
Magnetic Resonance Diagnostic Devices'' dated November 14, 1998.

II. Significance of Guidance

    This guidance is being issued consistent with FDA's good guidance 
practices regulation (21 CFR 10.115). The guidance represents the 
current thinking of FDA on ``Submission of Premarket Notifications for 
Magnetic Resonance Diagnostic Devices.'' It does not establish any 
rights for any person and is not binding on FDA or the public. You can 
use an alternative approach if it satisfies the requirements of the 
applicable statutes and regulations.

III. Electronic Access

    Persons interested in obtaining a copy of the guidance may do so by 
downloading an electronic copy from the Internet. A search capability 
for all Center for Devices and Radiological Health guidance documents 
is available at http://www.fda.gov/MedicalDevices/DeviceRegulationandGuidance/GuidanceDocuments/default.htm. Guidance 
documents are also available at http://www.regulations.gov. Persons 
unable to download an electronic copy of ``Submission of Premarket 
Notifications for Magnetic Resonance Diagnostic Devices'' may send an 
email request to [email protected] to receive an electronic 
copy of the document. Please use the document number 340 to identify 
the guidance you are requesting.

IV. Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995

    This guidance refers to previously approved collections of 
information found in FDA regulations. These collections of information 
are subject to review by the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) 
under the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C. 3501-3520). The 
collections of information in 21 CFR part 807, subpart E (premarket 
notification), have been approved under OMB control number 0910-0120; 
the collections of information in 21 CFR part 801 (labeling) have been 
approved under OMB control number 0910-0485; the collections of 
information in parts 1002 through 1050 (electronic product 
requirements) have been approved under OMB control number 0910-0025; 
and the collections of information in the guidance document ``Requests 
for Feedback on Medical Device Submissions: The Pre-Submission Program 
and Meetings with Food and Drug Administration Staff'' have been 
approved under OMB control number 0910-0756.
