Premarket evidence — what FDA accepted

Device typesamd
source quote (p.3)
Precision DL is a deep learning-based image processing method intended to enhance image quality of non-ToF PET images for clinical oncology purpose, using F-18 FDG. Precision DL may be used for patients of all ages. Precision DL is deployed within the acquisition and processing software of Omni Legend, for processing images produced using non-ToF Q.Clear image reconstruction.

source quote (p.3)
Precision DL is a deep learning-based image processing method intended to enhance image quality of non-ToF PET images for clinical oncology purpose, using F-18 FDG. Deep learning-based image processing trained to enhance non-ToF images to have IQ performance similar to ToF images.
Adaptive (vs locked)No
source quote (p.6)
Precision DL brings three deep learning models to provide users the choice between different strengths of contrast enhancement and noise reduction. The three models, Low, Medium, and High Precision DL, are trained such that the High Precision DL brings the highest contrast enhancement and lowest noise reduction, while the Low Precision DL brings the lowest contrast enhancement and highest noise reduction. Medium Precision DL brings contrast-noise tradeoff in between High and Low Precision DL.

    GE Healthcare has become aware of a potential issue on 800 family NM/CT Scanners that could cause a shift in CT radiation exposure range of up to 5cm compared to the intended radiation exposure range of the planned scan under specific workflows. The issue occurs only on a hybrid whole-body continuous F3 protocol with Zoom < 1 where the scan range is set on the Smart Console. In some cases, this may also necessitate a re-scan of the patient, which would expose the patient to additional X-ray radiation.

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.
