(174 days)
Yes
The device description explicitly mentions "Deep Resolve Boost" and "Deep Resolve Sharp" features, and the training and test set descriptions detail the use of datasets and metrics like PSNR and SSIM, which are common in the evaluation of AI/ML models for image processing. The mention of "pre-trained" models further supports the use of ML.
No
The device is described as a "magnetic resonance diagnostic device" used to produce images and spectra that assist in diagnosis, not to treat or cure a disease or condition.
Yes
The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" section explicitly states that the MAGNETOM system is "indicated for use as a magnetic resonance diagnostic device (MRDD)". It also mentions that the images and spectra, when interpreted by a trained physician, "yield information that may assist in diagnosis."
No
The device description explicitly states that the subject device consists of "new and modified software and hardware" and lists several hardware components.
Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use clearly states that the MAGNETOM system is a "magnetic resonance diagnostic device (MRDD)" that produces images and spectra of the internal structure and/or function of the body. It is used to assist in diagnosis when interpreted by a trained physician. This describes an in vivo diagnostic imaging system, not an in vitro diagnostic device.
- Device Description: The description details hardware and software components related to an MRI system, such as gradient coils, body coils, and software for image acquisition and processing. These are characteristic of an imaging device, not a device used to examine specimens outside the body.
- Input Imaging Modality: The input modality is "Magnetic Resonance," which is an imaging technique performed on a living subject.
- Anatomical Site: The device is used on the "head, body, or extremities," indicating application to a living organism.
- Lack of Specimen Handling: There is no mention of the device being used to analyze biological specimens such as blood, urine, tissue, etc., which is a core function of IVD devices.
In summary, the MAGNETOM system is an in vivo diagnostic imaging device used to create images of the internal body for diagnostic purposes, not an in vitro diagnostic device used to analyze specimens outside the body.
No
The letter does not state that the FDA has reviewed and approved or cleared a Predetermined Change Control Plan (PCCP) for this specific device.
Intended Use / Indications for Use
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. Other physical parameters derived from the images and/or spectra may also be produced. Depending on the region of interest, contrast agents may be used. These images and/or spectra and the physical parameters derived from the images and/or spectra when interpreted by a trained physician yield information that may assist in diagnosis.
The MAGNETOM system may also be used for imaging during interventional procedures when performed with MR compatible devices such as in-room displays and MR Safe biopsy needles.

Description of the training set, sample size, data source, and annotation protocol
Deep Resolve Boost:
TSE: more than 25,000 slices
HASTE: pre-trained on the TSE dataset and refined with more than 10,000 HASTE slices
EPI Diffusion: more than 1,000,000 slices
The data covered a broad range of body parts, contrasts, fat suppression techniques, orientations, and field strength.
The acquired datasets (as described above) represent the ground truth for the training and validation. Input data was retrospectively created from the ground truth by data manipulation and augmentation. This process includes further under-sampling of the data by discarding k-space lines, lowering of the SNR level by addition Restricted of noise and mirroring of k-space data.
Deep Resolve Sharp:
on more than 10,000 high resolution 2D images.
The data covered a broad range of body parts, contrasts, fat suppression techniques, orientations, and field strength.
The acquired datasets represent the ground truth for the training and validation. Input data was retrospectively created from the ground truth by data manipulation. k-space data has been cropped such that only the center part of the data was used as input. With this method corresponding low-resolution data as input and high-resolution data as output / ground truth were created for training and validation.
Description of the test set, sample size, data source, and annotation protocol
Deep Resolve Boost:
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.
Deep Resolve Sharp:
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 reconstructions with and without Deep Resolve Sharp.

Dear Alina Goodman:
We have reviewed your section 510(k) premarket notification of intent to market the device referenced above and have determined the device is substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to legally marketed predicate devices marketed in interstate commerce prior to May 28, 1976, the enactment date of the Medical Device Amendments, or to devices that have been reclassified in accordance with the provisions of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (the Act) that do not require approval of a premarket approval application (PMA). You may, therefore, market the device, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act. Although this letter refers to your product as a device, please be aware that some cleared products may instead be combination products. The 510(k) Premarket Notification Database available at https://www.accessdata.fda.gov/scripts/cdrh/cfdocs/cfpmn/pmn.cfm identifies combination product submissions. The general controls provisions of the Act include requirements for annual registration, listing of devices, good manufacturing practice, labeling, and prohibitions against misbranding and adulteration. Please note: CDRH does not evaluate information related to contract liability warranties. We remind you, however, that device labeling must be truthful and not misleading.
If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (PMA), it may be subject to additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 898. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register.
Additional information about changes that may require a new premarket notification are provided in the FDA guidance documents entitled "Deciding When to Submit a 510(k) for a Change to an Existing Device" (https://www.fda.gov/media/99812/download) and "Deciding When to Submit a 510(k) for a Software Change to an Existing Device" (https://www.fda.gov/media/99785/download).

11. Conclusion as to Substantial Equivalence
MAGNETOM Cima.X Fit with software syngo MR XA61A has the same intended use and same basic technological characteristics than the predicate device system, MAGNETOM Vida with syngo MR XA50A, with respect to the magnetic resonance features and functionalities. While there are some differences in technical features compared to the predicate device, the differences have been tested and the conclusions from all verification
13
and validation data suggest that the features bear an equivalent safety and performance profile to that of the predicate device and reference devices.
Siemens believes that MAGNETOM Cima.X Fit with software syngo MR XA61A is substantially equivalent to the currently marketed device MAGNETOM Vida with software syngo MR XA50A (K213693, cleared on February 25, 2022).
