Premarket evidence — what FDA accepted

Device typehardware
source quote (p.4)
“The MAGNETOM system is indicated for use as a magnetic resonance diagnostic device (MRDD) that produces transverse, sagittal, coronal and oblique cross-sectional images, spectroscopic images and/or spectra, and that displays the internal structure and/or function of the head, body, or extremities.”
AlgorithmThe device utilizes a network characterized by quality metrics such as peak signal-to-noise ratio (PSNR) and structural similarity index (SSIM), evaluated by visual comparisons for aliasing artifacts, image sharpness, and denoising levels. It includes Deep Resolve Boost for TSE, HASTE, and EPI Diffusion, and Deep Resolve Sharp for 2D images.
source quote (p.11)
“The impact of the network has been characterized by several quality metrics such as peak signal-to-noise ratio (PSNR) and structural similarity index (SSIM). Most importantly, the performance was evaluated by visual comparisons to evaluate e.g., aliasing artifacts, image sharpness and denoising levels. The impact of the network has been characterized by several quality metrics such as peak signal-to-noise ratio (PSNR), structural similarity index (SSIM), and perceptual loss. In addition, the feature has been verified and validated by inhouse tests. These tests include visual rating and an evaluation of image sharpness by intensity profile comparisons of”

source quote (p.13)
“Risk Management is ensured via a risk analysis in compliance with ISO 14971, to identify and provide mitigation of potential hazards early in the design cycle and continuously throughout the development of the product. Siemens Healthcare GmbH adheres to recognized and established industry standards, such as the IEC 60601-1 series, to minimize electrical and mechanical hazards.”

    There is a potential for an ice blockage to form or currently exist within the primary and/or the auxiliary venting paths of the magnet helium containment venting system. In the event of a quench when both venting paths are blocked, helium gas may be unable to escape through the designed venting paths, leading to a pressure build-up within the helium containment system. This pressure build-up could ultimately rupture the helium containment system, potentially resulting in a helium leak into the scanning room.

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.
