Optima MR450 1.5T Product Usage: 1 .5T Brivo MR355 and 1.5T Optima MR360 are whole body magnetic resonance scanners designed to support high resolution, high signal-to-noise ratio, and short scan times. It is indicated for use as a diagnostic imaging device to produce axial, sagittal, coronal, and oblique images, spectroscopic images, parametric maps, and/or spectra, dynamic images of the structures and/or functions of the entire body, but not limited to, head, neck, TMJ, spine, breast, heart, abdomen, pelvis, joints, prostate, blood vessels, and musculoskeletal regions of the body. Depending on the region of interest being imaged, contrast agents may be used. The images produced by the 1 .5T Brivo MR355 and I .5T Optima MR360 reflect the spatial distribution or molecular environment of nuclei exhibiting magnetic resonance. These images and/or spectra when interpreted by a trained physician yield information that may assist in diagnosis.

VNS Therapy¿ AspireHC¿ Generator, VNS Therapy¿ AspireSR¿ Generator. Model No. 105. Product Usage: United States Indications for Use: Epilepsy (PMA 970003): The VNS Therapy System is indicated for use as an adjunctive therapy in reducing the frequency of seizures in adults and adolescents over 12 years of age with partial onset seizures that are refractory to antiepileptic medications. Depression (PMA 970003/S050): VNS Therapy is indicated for the adjunctive long-term treatment of chronic or recurrent depression for patients 18 years of age or older who are experiencing a major depressive episode and have not had an adequate response to four or more adequate antidepressant treatments. Indications outside the U.S.: Epilepsy (Non-US): The VNS Therapy System is indicated for use as an adjunctive therapy in reducing the frequency of seizures in patients whose epileptic disorder is dominated by partial seizure (with or without secondary generalization) or generalized seizures that are refractory to antiepileptic medications. AspireSR (Seizure Response) features the Automatic Stimulation Mode which is intended for patients who experience seizures that are associated with cardiac rhythm increases known as ictal tachycardia. Depression (Non-US): The VNS Therapy System is indicated for the treatment of chronic or recurrent depression in patients who are experiencing a treatment-resistant or treatment-intolerant depressive episode.
