FDA Radiology AI Devices

The SOMATOM go series by Siemens Medical Solutions USA, Inc., comprises advanced CT scanner systems used in radiology to produce detailed cross-sectional images of the body. These devices assist clinicians by providing high-quality computed tomography images that support diagnosis and treatment planning for various medical conditions.

syngo.CT Dual Energy is a post-processing software application for CT scans that uses dual-energy imaging techniques combining low and high energy X-ray spectra to enhance visualization of different materials in the body. It helps clinicians by providing advanced imaging features for better evaluation of anatomical structures and pathologies, including brain hemorrhage visualization, lung perfusion, kidney stone analysis, and more, improving diagnostic accuracy without requiring additional scans.

The NAEOTOM Alpha is a dual-source computed tomography (CT) scanner developed by Siemens Medical Solutions. It uses advanced photon-counting detector technology and incorporates AI-driven image reconstruction and post-processing software to produce highly detailed cross-sectional images. This device assists trained clinicians in diagnosing and treating patients, including applications like low-dose lung cancer screening in high-risk populations. It features enhanced workflow tools, integrated needle guidance for interventions, and supports sophisticated quantitative imaging techniques.

The SOMATOM go. Platform and SOMATOM X. Platform CT scanners, produced by Siemens Medical Solutions USA, Inc., are advanced computed tomography systems designed to generate detailed cross-sectional images of patients. These devices aid healthcare professionals in diagnosis, treatment planning, and radiation therapy across a variety of clinical scenarios, including lung cancer screening. The systems feature a fan-beam CT technology, sophisticated software for image reconstruction and optional AI-assisted workflow enhancements such as automated needle detection for intervention procedures, and innovative camera-based patient positioning workflows. They improve clinical accuracy and efficiency while ensuring patient comfort and safety.

syngo.CT Brain Hemorrhage by Siemens Medical Solutions is an AI-powered software that helps radiologists prioritize CT scans suspected of having intracranial or subarachnoid hemorrhages. It analyzes head CT images to flag cases for earlier review, improving workflow efficiency. This software is not for diagnosis but supports clinicians by highlighting urgent cases based on AI detection of hemorrhages.

AI-Rad Companion (Cardiovascular) is a software product that uses AI and deep learning to analyze previously acquired chest CT images, providing quantitative and qualitative assessments of cardiovascular structures like the heart and aorta. It helps clinicians by automating segmentation, volume measurement, calcium quantification in coronary arteries, and diameter measurements of the aorta, thus supporting accurate and efficient cardiovascular disease evaluation.

AI-Rad Companion (Musculoskeletal) is an AI-powered software that analyzes previously acquired CT images to assist radiologists and physicians in evaluating musculoskeletal diseases. It segments, labels vertebrae, measures vertebral heights, and computes mean Hounsfield values to provide detailed quantitative and qualitative analysis, improving assessment and workflow efficiency for clinicians.

AI-Rad Companion Organs RT is a software product by Siemens that uses deep learning to automatically contour organs at risk on CT imaging data. The output contours help radiation oncologists plan external beam radiation therapy by providing accurate anatomical structures for treatment planning. The software processes CT scans, generates contour data in DICOM RTSTRUCT format, and integrates with treatment planning systems to improve clinician workflow and efficiency in radiation therapy preparation.

syngo.CT Extended Functionality is a software package that provides advanced visualization and measurement tools for medical images acquired from CT and potentially other modalities like MRI. It helps technicians and physicians perform qualitative and quantitative analysis of clinical imaging data to assist in diagnosis by creating detailed images and measurements using various specialized extensions.

The syngo.CT CaScoring software by Siemens is used to analyze non-contrast cardiac CT scans to detect and evaluate calcified lesions in coronary arteries. It calculates scores like the Agatston score, mass, and volume scores for different coronary arteries, helping physicians assess coronary artery disease and generate detailed reports to support patient management.
