“The proposed Venue system is a general-purpose, Track 3, diagnostic ultrasound device, intended for ultrasound imaging, measurement and analysis of the human body and fluid that provides digital acquisition, processing and display capabilities. The system includes several automated tools designed to simplify and shorten the workflow time of the healthcare professional for some common assessments. cNerve: may help the user to detect and track nerves during the scouting stage of a nerve block procedure, prior to inserting the needle to inject the anesthetic material.”

    GE HealthCare has become aware that the Estimated Fetal Weight (EFW) measurement data feature on the Versana Premier R3 and LOGIQ F R3 series ultrasound systems can display previous obstetric patient data in the Whizz report. This could potentially lead to an incorrect clinical decision due to inaccuracy in the fetal size and growth calculation.

Recall and MAUDE counts are product-code-level (reports aren't reliably attributable to one device); a recall is shown as device-attributed only when the recall record itself lists this clearance number. Signals are descriptive observables with sources — never a judgment that the device is unsafe or drifting. Snapshot 2026-07-08.

Reimbursement — how devices like this got paid

Not yet tracked — no payment pathway indexed for this clearance (the reimbursement corpus is a growing seed set).

Applicable FDA guidance — what the submission is measured against

FDA guidance documents and guiding principles applicable to 510(k) AI/ML devices in the Radiology panel. A curated reference index, not legal or regulatory advice — each item states its own status, and a draft is never binding.

Applicability is derived from the device's FDA advisory panel and pathway — cross-cutting guidances apply to every AI/ML device; panel-specific ones are flagged. Titles, dates, and links verified against fda.gov as of July 2026.
