Premarket evidence — what FDA accepted

Device typesamd
source quote (p.4)
“FlightPlan for Embolization is a post-processing, software-only application using 3D X-ray angiography images (CBCT) as input. It helps clinicians visualize vasculature to aid in the planning of endovascular embolization procedures throughout the body. A new option, called Al Segmentation, was developed from the modifications to the predicate device, GE HealthCare's FlightPlan for Embolization [K193261]. It includes two new algorithms. This Al Segmentation option is what triggered this 510(k) submission.”
AlgorithmDeep-Learning based automatic vessels extraction algorithm and Deep-Learning based root definition algorithm
source quote (p.6)
“The Al Segmentation option enabling both automatic segmentation of vasculature and automatic definition of the root point is based on two new algorithms: Deep-Learning based automatic vessels extraction algorithm and Deep-Learning based root definition algorithm.”

Reported performance (0 observations)

FDA source did not state a quantitative performance metric — non-reporting is itself the signal.

Each value carries its own analysis unit and task — never compare or pool across devices. Source: 510(k) summary PDF.

  • Recalling firm matches this device's applicant (GE Medical Systems SCS) — same firm and product code, not necessarily this device · initiated 2026-05-08

    GE HealthCare has become aware of a context synchronization issue in AW Server 3.2 ext. 6.5. When a user selects a patient or exam in the AW Server Web Client worklist and launches an interactive application (e.g. Volume Viewer), the application may open the previous patient's exam instead of the intended one. When this issue occurs, there is no system warning or error notification. If the error is not recognized, a clinical user could review, interpret, or report images for the wrong patient which could lead to misdiagnosis, incorrect clinical decisions, resulting in delayed or incorrect treatment.

    recall event 98428 (openFDA)

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 2026-09-02.

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.
