FDA-cleared profile

CardIQ Suite

GE Medical Systems SCS

Visualization and measurement of cardiovascular anatomy, chamber mobility, calcium scoring, and follow-up of stents, bypasses, and plaque imaging to aid diagnosis and treatment-path determination for cardiovascular disease; calcium scoring may monitor coronary calcium progression or regression and aid prognosis.

Evidence status: each field states its source quality, applicability, and review date. Research pending, information not established, and vendor documentation pending remain distinct outcomes.

Output and human action
Automatic segmentation and labeling of coronary calcifications; Agatston/Janowitz 130, Volume, and Adaptive Volume calcium scores; manual scoring and editing; vessel measurements; chamber cine visualization; coronary 2D review; ROI and distance measurements; image and measurement export; and DICOM SR calcium-scoring results.

Limitations
The FDA packet does not specify a patient age group, institutional care setting, or numeric clinical-performance endpoint. The described outputs aid diagnosis and treatment-path decisions; the clinical comparison reports correlation of manual and automated calcium scores, not sensitivity or specificity.

Regulatory identity

FDA record and catalog context

The FDA listing establishes the regulatory identity. It does not by itself establish local workflow fit, pricing, security, or performance in your environment.

Input or output interoperability

DICOM is explicitly referenced in the described input, output, or workflow.

The model card does not establish every supported DICOM object, transfer method, or local interface.

ACR exact-submission catalog context

ACR AI Central provides an exact-submission model card for CardIQ Suite; FDA labeling remains controlling for clinical use, limitations, and performance.

Evidence

Performance evidence

Metrics are shown only when they are tied to a source, endpoint, population, and tested product version. Candidate literature without exact product and version linkage is not shown as product evidence.

Evidence summary
Engineering validation on retrospective CT exams passed defined acceptance criteria for calcium segmentation, labeling, and scoring. Three board-certified radiologists manually scored representative clinical images and the results were compared with CardIQ Suite automated scores; FDA reports very high correlations for total calcium score against the manual method and predicate, without numeric sensitivity, specificity, AUC, Dice, or reader-delta results.

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 exact-identifier FDA recall query returned no native recall record for K213725. This limited result does not establish absence of recalls or other safety information and does not cover later versions, family records, MAUDE reports, corrections, or field notices.

Exact-submission ACR model-card fields were normalized under the current provenance rules; vendor and independent-study confirmation remain distinct. Exact FDA scope controls clinical claims. ACR provides bounded exact-submission catalog context. Candidate literature metadata remains a discovery queue until full-text identity, endpoint, population, and version review is completed. Automated exact-name discovery found 0 PubMed and 0 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.
