Premarket evidence — what FDA accepted
source quote (p.7)
“cvi42 Software Application (“cvi42”) is a software as a medical device (SaMD) that is intended for evaluating CT and MR images of the cardiovascular system.”
source quote (p.7)
“cvi42 uses machine learning techniques to aid in semi-automatic contouring of regions of interest in cardiac MR or CT images.”
source quote (p.7)
“The separation into training versus validation datasets is made on the study level to ensure no overlap between the two sets. As such, different scans from the same study were not split between the training and validation datasets. None of the cases used for model validation were used for training the machine learning models.”
Validation studies (3)
Bench
sample size not stated
endpoints: tracking performance; deformation field; performance of the constrained tissue tracking algorithm compared to manual tracking in ES phase by three expert readers; computation of the deformation metrics
standards: ISO 13485:2016, BS EN 62304:2006, ISO 14971:2019, DICOM standards
Retrospective clinical
n=235 patients
endpoints: classification accuracy defined by true positives (TP), true negatives (TN), false positives (FP), and false negatives (FN); Mean volume prediction error (Mean Absolute Error, or MAE); centerline quality and performance (based on TP and FN); success rate for relevant masks

Postmarket — what happened after clearance
- re_clearance
The FDA AI/ML device list shows a newer 510(k) K251027 (decision 2025-10-27) from Circle Cardiovascular Imaging, Inc. for a matching device line ("cvi42 Coronary Plaque Software Application") — a new clearance for the same line is a change event.

Recall and MAUDE counts are product-code-level (reports aren't reliably attributable to one device). Signals are descriptive observables with sources — never a judgment that the device is unsafe or drifting. Snapshot 2026-07-08.
