Indications for Use
The SIGNA PET/MR system combines magnetic resonance diagnostic devices (MRDD) and Positron Emission Tomography (PET) scanners that provide registration and fusion of high resolution physiologic and anatomic information, acquired simultaneously and isocentrically. The combined system maintains independent functionality of the MR and PET devices, allowing for single modality MR and / or PET imaging. These systems are intended to be utilized by appropriately trained health care professionals to aid in the detection, localization, and diagnosis of diseases and disorders. MR is intended to produce transverse, sagittal, coronal and oblique cross-sectional MR images, spectroscopic images and/ or spectra, and displays the internal structure and/or function of the human body. Other physical parameters derived from the images and/or spectra may also be produced. Depending on the region of interest, approved contrast agents may be used, as described in their labeling. This system may also be used for imaging during interventional procedures when performed with MR compatible devices, such as MR safe biopsy needles. PET images and measures the distribution of PET radiopharmaceuticals in humans to aid the physician in determining various metabolic (molecular) and physiologic functions within the human body for evaluation of diseases and disorders such as, but not limited to, cardiovascular disease, neurological disorders and cancer. The combined system utilizes the MR for radiation-free attenuation correction maps for PET studies. The system provides inherent anatomical reference for the fused PET and MR images due to precisely aligned MR and PET image coordinate systems.
Device Story
SIGNA PET/MR combines 3.0T MR scanner and PET detector system integrated into MR bore; enables simultaneous, isocentric acquisition of high-resolution metabolic and anatomic data. System includes patient table, acquisition/processing workstations, and software for patient management, scan control, image reconstruction, and archival. PET subsystem supports Time of Flight (ToF). Used in clinical settings by trained professionals (physicians, technologists) for oncology, neurology, and cardiology. MR data provides radiation-free attenuation correction maps for PET; precisely aligned coordinate systems allow inherent anatomical reference for fused images. Output consists of cross-sectional MR images, spectroscopic images/spectra, and PET metabolic maps. Clinicians use fused images to aid diagnosis and interventional procedure guidance. Benefits include simultaneous multi-modality imaging, reduced scan time, and improved anatomical localization of metabolic activity.
Clinical Evidence
Bench testing only. Clinical evidence consists of sample clinical images and qualitative/quantitative comparisons of the modified MR Attenuation Correction technology against the predicate device to demonstrate equivalent performance.
Technological Characteristics
3.0T superconducting magnet; gradient and body coils; integrated PET detectors in MR bore. Supports Time of Flight (ToF) PET. DICOM-compliant software for image reconstruction and processing. Standards: AAMI/ANSI 62304, AAMI/ANSI ES60601-1, IEC 60601-2-33. Software-based MR attenuation correction.
Indications for Use
Indicated for use by trained healthcare professionals for detection, localization, and diagnosis of disorders in oncology, neurology, and cardiology. Applicable to patients requiring MR and/or PET imaging for metabolic and physiologic evaluation. Contraindications include non-MR compatible implants or devices.
Regulatory Classification

| Comparison of Intended<br>Use | The proposed modifications do not impact the indications for use of<br>the device, therefore the intended use has not changed compared to<br>the predicate.<br>The modifications outlined within this submission have the same<br>intended use as the predicate device in accordance with the FDA's<br>guidance document "The 510(k) Program: Evaluating Substantial<br>Equivalence in Premarket Notifications [510(k)]", dated 28 July<br>2014. |
| Technology: | The SIGNA PET/MR with the proposed software modifications<br>employs the same fundamental scientific technology as the predicate<br>device. This subject of this premarket notification includes<br>modifications to MR Attenuation Correction compared to the<br>predicate device. |
| Determination of<br>Substantial Equivalence: | Summary of Non-Clinical Tests:<br>The features that are the subject of this premarket notification are<br>software only features that comply with the following voluntary |
| standards:<br>AAMI/ANSI 62304 AAMI/ANSI ES60601-1 IEC 60601-2-33 The following quality assurance measures were applied to the development of subject features: Risk Analysis Requirements Reviews Design Reviews Testing on unit level (Module verification) Integration testing (System verification) Safety testing (Verification) Simulated use testing (Validation) Non-clinical tests have been summarized in the verification and validation testing. The testing was completed with passing results per the pass/fail criteria defined in the test cases. This supports substantial equivalence to its predicate because the software features were developed under quality assurance Design Controls.<br>Summary of Clinical Tests:<br>Sample clinical images, qualitative and quantitative comparisons compared to the predicate MR Attenuation Correction technology are included in this submission to support substantial equivalence of the modified features. | |
| Conclusion:<br>GE Healthcare considers the SIGNA PET/MR with the modified software to be as safe, as effective, and performance is substantially equivalent to the predicate device. | |
