K070778 is an FDA 510(k) clearance for the NEOCOIL 3.0T 6-CHANNEL CAROTID ARRAY COIL. Classified as Coil, Magnetic Resonance, Specialty (product code MOS), Class II - Special Controls.

Submitted by Neocoil (Pewaukee, US). The FDA issued a Cleared decision on April 11, 2007 after a review of 21 days - a notably fast clearance cycle.

This device falls under the Radiology FDA review panel, regulated under 21 CFR 892.1000 - the FDA radiology and imaging software oversight framework.
