Intended Use

The SOMATOM P301, is intended to produce cross-sectional images of the body by computer reconstruction of x-ray transmission data from either the same axial plane taken at different angles or spiral planes* taken at different angles. (*spiral planes: the axial plancs resulted from the continuous rotation of detectors and x-ray tube, and the simultaneous translation of the patient.)

Device Story

Whole body X-ray computed tomography system; utilizes continuously rotating tube-detector assembly; operates on fan beam principle. Inputs: X-ray transmission data acquired during patient rotation/translation. Processing: computer reconstruction of data into cross-sectional images. Outputs: cross-sectional images for clinical evaluation. Used in clinical settings by trained medical professionals. Software (SOMARIS/5) manages patient data, scan control, image reconstruction, and archiving. Output used by clinicians for diagnostic imaging and clinical decision-making.

Clinical Evidence

No clinical data provided; safety and effectiveness supported by hazard analysis, software verification, and validation testing.

Technological Characteristics

Whole-body CT system; fan-beam geometry; continuously rotating tube-detector assembly. Software: SOMARIS/5 command-based program. Connectivity: image archive/evaluation capabilities. Adheres to established industry standards for electrical, mechanical, and radiation safety.

Indications for Use

Indicated for patients requiring cross-sectional body imaging via computer reconstruction of X-ray transmission data, utilizing axial or spiral scanning planes.

Regulatory Classification

Identification

A computed tomography x-ray system is a diagnostic x-ray system intended to produce cross-sectional images of the body by computer reconstruction of x-ray transmission data from the same axial plane taken at different angles. This generic type of device may include signal analysis and display equipment, patient and equipment supports, component parts, and accessories.
