Premarket evidence — what FDA accepted

Device typehardware
source quote (p.4)
This computed tomography system is intended to generate and process cross-sectional images of patients by computer reconstruction of x-ray transmission data. The images delivered by the system can be used by a trained staff as an aid in diagnosis, treatment and radiation therapy planning as well as for diagnostic and therapeutic interventions. This CT system can be used for low dose lung cancer screening in high risk populations*.
AlgorithmFDA source did not state this
Adaptive (vs locked)FDA source did not state this
PCCPFDA source did not state this
Cybersecurity addressedYes
source quote (p.40)
Siemens conforms to the Cybersecurity requirements by implementing a process of preventing unauthorized access, modifications, misuse or denial of use, or the unauthorized use of information that is stored, accessed, or transferred from a medical device to an external recipient.
