The document describes a standard PET/CT imaging system and its intended use, focusing on image acquisition, attenuation correction, and localization. There is no mention of AI, ML, or any related technologies in the device description, intended use, or performance studies. The "Mentions AI, DNN, or ML" field explicitly states "Not Found".
No
Explanation: The device is described as an imaging system used for diagnosis, staging, and follow-up of diseases, and for radiotherapy planning, not for administering therapy.
Yes
Explanation: The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" section explicitly states that the device "can assist in the evaluation, diagnosis, staging, and follow up of lesions, disease and organ function". It also mentions that it "can also be used as a stand-alone head and whole body multislice computed tomography (CT) diagnostic imaging system."
No
The device description clearly states it integrates a GE Positron Emission Tomography system and a GE LightSpeed CT System, which are hardware components.
Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostics are tests performed on samples taken from the human body, such as blood, urine, or tissue, to detect diseases, conditions, or infections.
- Device Function: The GE Discovery ST System is an imaging system (PET/CT). It works by detecting radiation emitted from radiopharmaceuticals administered to the patient within their body, and by using X-rays to create cross-sectional images. It does not analyze samples taken from the body.
- Intended Use: The intended use clearly describes imaging the distribution of radiopharmaceuticals and using CT for anatomical localization and attenuation correction. This is an in vivo (within the living body) process, not an in vitro process.
Therefore, the GE Discovery ST System is a medical imaging device, not an In Vitro Diagnostic device.
N/A
Intended Use / Indications for Use
The GE Discovery ST System with the alternate detector option is intended for head and whole body attenuation corrected Positron Emission Tomography (PET) imaging and localization of emission activity in patient anatomy by means of integrated PET and CT images.
The Discovery ST with alternate detector option is to be used by trained health care professionals for imaging the distribution of radiopharmaceuticals in the body for the assessment of metabolic (molecular) and physiologic functions. This can assist in the evaluation, diagnosis, staging, and follow up of lesions, disease and organ function such as (but not limited to) cancer, cardiovascular disease, and brain dysfunction. This device can also assist in radiotherapy planning.
The Discovery ST with alternate detector option can also be used as a stand-alone head and whole body multislice computed tomography (CT) diagnostic imaging system.

Device Description: The Discovery ST PET/CT Imaging System an with alternate detector option integrates a GE Positron Emission Tomography system and a GE LightSpeed CT System. In addition to providing CT and PET stand-alone capabilities, it uses the CT images to correct for non-uniform attenuation of the PET images and to facilitate localization of the emission activity in the patient anatomy.
Indications for Use: The GE Discovery ST System with the alternate detector option is intended for head and whole body attenuation corrected Positron Emission Tomography (PET) imaging and localization of emission activity in patient anatomy by means of integrated PET and CT images.
The Discovery ST with alternate detector option is to be used by trained health care professionals for imaging the distribution of radiopharmaceuticals in the body for the assessment of metabolic (molecular) and physiologic functions. This can assist in the evaluation, diagnosis, staging, and follow up of lesions, disease and organ function such as (but not limited to) cancer, cardiovascular disease, and brain dysfunction. This device can also assist in radiotherapy planning.
The Discovery ST with alternate detector option can also be used as a stand-alone head and whole body multislice computed tomography (CT) diagnostic imaging system.
Comparison with Predicate Device: The Discovery ST with alternate detector option is of a comparable type and substantially equivalent to the currently marketed GE Discovery ST PET/CT System. It has the same technological characteristics, is comparable in key safety and effectiveness features, uses the same basic design, construction, and materials, and has the same intended uses as the predicate device.
Summary of Studies: The device has been evaluated for electrical, and radiation safety, and conforms with applicable medical device safety standards.
Clinical Tests: None required.
Conclusion: Intended uses and other key features are consistent with traditional clinical practice, FDA guidelines, and established methods of patient examination. Intended uses and fundamental scientific technology are the same as the legally marketed GE Discovery ST System. The design and development process of the manufacturer conforms with 21 CFR 820, ISO 9001 and ISO 13485 quality systems. The device conforms to applicable medical device safety standards and compliance is verified through independent evaluation with factory surveillance. Therefore, it is the opinion of GE Medical Systems that the Discovery ST with alternate detector option PET/CT Imaging System is substantially equivalent with respect to safety and effectiveness to devices currently cleared for market.
