	* '''2. Study Procedures b):''' Describe the new MRI scanner indicating it is a non-FDA approved device but can still be considered non-significant risk. We suggest the following language: "The study will use the 3T UHP system at CNI. The UHP shares a common software and hardware architecture to GE's FDA-approved Premier system but uses a higher-performance gradient coil and is not FDA approved for diagnostic use and is subject to the 21 CFR 812 investigational device(IDE) regulations as well as 21 CFR 50 and 56. The system has been tested by GE according to UL606001-1 and also for compliance with IEC 60601-2-33 (ed 3.1) -- meeting limits and guidelines for peripheral nerve stimulation, patient thermal, SAR limit, acoustic noise, flammability rating UL94-5VA for safety covers, hydrostatic pressure, electrical hazards, dielectric strength and pinch point. The MRI scans in this study will also utilize operational parameters within FDA guidelines for Nonsignificant Risk thus an Investigational Device Exemption (IDE) from FDA should not be necessary. The research conducted under this protocol is not to evaluate the safety or efficacy of this device. In support of this research study, some of the image acquisition pulse sequences and post-processing software will be developed in collaboration with GE Healthcare. Any such software will be considered investigational, will function as a non-significant risk device, and is subject to the 21 CFR 812 investigational device(IDE) regulations as well as 21 CFR 50 and 56. The investigational image acquisition software will conform to FDA guidelines for MR safety related to heating (SAR), peripheral nerve stimulation (dB/dt), and acoustic noise. "		* '''2.

	* '''5. Devices:''' The 3T UHP needs to be listed in section 5a) under Investigational Devices. The Device Name should be "3T UHP", indicate it is a non-significant risk device, list the PI as the sponsor of the project, and include the following under the Rationale for the device being non-significant risk: "The GE 3T Ultra High Performance (UHP) MRI scanner is an upgrade of an FDA-approved 3T MR750 scanner but is not itself FDA approved. The UHP scanner utilizes components from GE's 3T Signa Premier scanner (an FDA approved system) including gradient drivers, power supply, transmit and receive system, but uses a higher-performance gradient coil. The scanner has been tested by GE according to UL606001-1 and for compliance with IEC60601-2-33 (ed 3.1), meeting limits and guidelines for peripheral nerve stimulation, patient thermal, SAR limit, acoustic noise, flammability rating UL94-5VA for safety covers, hydrostatic pressure, electrical hazards, dielectric strength and pinch point. MRI research scans also frequently require specialized research software, but this will conform to FDA guidelines for MR safety related to heating (SAR), peripheral nerve stimulation (dB/dt), and acoustic noise. As a result, the 3T UHP system is considered a non-significant risk investigational device and is subject to 21 CFR 812 investigational device (IDE) regulations as well as 21 CFR 50 and 56. The MRI scans in this study using the UHP scanner will utilize operational parameters within FDA guidelines for Nonsignificant Risk thus an Investigational Device Exemption (IDE) from FDA should not be necessary. In addition to the GE receive coil components that are included with the UHP system, there are some non-GE coils. These devices are legally marketed components, used in accordance with their labelling, and are of non-significant risk. They include 32 channel and 16 channel receive-only brain RF coil arrays, manufactured by Nova Medical Inc~~, and an Invivo 8-channel coil~~. "		* '''5.

	This "Revising a Protocol" section is a brief step-by-step guide on how to modify an existing IRB protocol so that you can use the new CNI MR scanner, the 3T Ultra-High Performance (UHP) scanner.
