Premarket evidence — what FDA accepted
source quote (p.4)
“The Swoop® system is a portable MRI device that allows for patient bedside imaging. The system enables visualization of the internal structures of the head using standard magnetic resonance imaging contrasts. The main interface is a commercial off-the-shelf device that is used for operating the system, providing access to patient data, exam setup, exam execution, viewing MRI image data for quality control purposes, and cloud storage interactions. The system can generate MRI data sets with a broad range of contrasts. The user interface includes touch screen menus, controls, indicators, and navigation icons that allow the operator to control the system and to view imagery. The Swoop® system image reconstruction algorithm utilizes deep learning to provide improved image quality for T1W, T2W, and FLAIR sequences, specifically in terms of reductions in image noise and blurring.”
