K082636 is an FDA 510(k) clearance for the TXRX 15CH KNEE COIL (1.5T AND 3T), TXRX CP EXTREMITY COIL 3T. Classified as Coil, Magnetic Resonance, Specialty (product code MOS), Class II - Special Controls.

Submitted by Quality Electrodynamics (Mayfield Village, US). The FDA issued a Cleared decision on September 25, 2008 after a review of 15 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. The Traditional 510(k) pathway establishes clearance through substantial equivalence to a legally marketed predicate device, without requiring clinical trial data.

Device pattern: Fast-track predicate clearance. Standard predicate reliance. The short review cycle indicates strong predicate alignment - the FDA found sufficient equivalence without extended technical review.
