Release and scope verification

Map the installed model, build, options, population, anatomy, inputs, and outputs to K213717 before acceptance.

exact submission · checked 2026-09-03

Later product-family features are not evidence that this cleared release includes them.

Interoperability acceptance

Integrated scanner reconstruction followed by normal DICOM export; validate reconstruction labels, geometry, quantitative values, PACS display, and downstream compatibility.

exact submission · checked 2026-09-03

Test representative identifiers, orientation, geometry, measurements, units, routing, failure handling, and round trips locally.

Clinical acceptance

Use a signed local test set for the supported population and workflow. Include common and difficult cases, exclusions, acquisition variation, failed or low-quality inputs, reviewer overrides, and downstream effects. Performance depends on supported scanner, field strength, coil, sequence, anatomy, acceleration, and input quality; reconstructed images remain subject to physician review.

Safety and lifecycle

Postmarket record

Recall and adverse-event records are shown only after product matching. Adverse-event reports do not establish incidence or causality.

Postmarket safety review
The 2026-09-02 openFDA device-recall snapshot contained no record matched to K213717 by exact submission identifier. This does not exclude product-family or later safety information.
  • Public source
  • Exact FDA submission

Recovered from the prior exact-submission extraction and normalized under the current provenance rules. Exact FDA materials, available current product-family sources, reimbursement context, and exact-identifier postmarket results were reviewed. Pricing, contracted services, enabled options, final security architecture, and local interoperability remain organization-specific evidence. Automated exact-name discovery found 12 PubMed and 1 ClinicalTrials.gov candidate records. Candidates require human product and version matching; zero candidates is not evidence that no studies exist. Native FDA recall identifiers produced 0 postmarket candidate records; 0 have been reviewed (0 published, 0 rejected) and 0 remain unreviewed.

Candidate leads remain unpublished until a human confirms the exact product and tested version.
