Intended Use

The Spectral CT Verida Family is a Computed Tomography X-Ray System intended to produce cross-sectional images of the body by computer reconstruction of x-ray transmission data taken at different angles and planes. This device may include signal analysis and display equipment, patient and equipment supports, component parts, and accessories. The Spectral CT Verida Family system acquires one CT dataset – composed of data from a higher-energy detected x-ray spectrum and a lower-energy detected x-ray spectrum. The two spectra may be used to analyze the differences in the energy dependence of the attenuation coefficient of different materials. This allows for the generation of images at energies selected from the available spectrum and to provide information about the chemical composition of the body materials and/or contrast agents. Additionally, materials analysis provides for the quantification and graphical display of attenuation, material density, and effective atomic number. This information may be used by a trained healthcare professional as a diagnostic tool for the visualization and analysis of anatomical and pathological structures in patients of all ages, and to be used for diagnostic imaging in radiology, interventional radiology, and cardiology and in oncology as part of treatment preparation and radiation therapy planning. The Extended field of view images and respiratory correlated scanning (4DCT) are for treatment preparation and radiation therapy planning/simulation usage only. This device is indicated for head, whole body, cardiac and vascular X-ray Computed Tomography applications in patients of all ages. The system is also intended to be used for low dose CT lung cancer screening for the early detection of lung nodules that may represent cancer*. The screening must be performed within the established inclusion criteria of programs / protocols that have been approved and published by either a governmental body or professional medical society. The system incorporates both conventional iterative reconstruction (IR) and artificial intelligence (AI)-based reconstruction functionality. Spectral Precise Image (SPI) is an AI-based deep learning reconstruction feature intended to optimize image quality by reducing noise and enhancing image appearance in Head, Whole Body, Cardiac, and Vascular X-ray Computed Tomography applications. Clinical performance evaluation of the SPI feature was conducted in adult patients (>22 years of age). The use of SPI in pediatric populations has not been clinically validated. AI-based reconstruction outputs are intended to provide supplemental data for clinical interpretation and do not replace professional clinical judgment. Image quality and reconstruction performance may be subject to variability based on patient anatomy, body habitus, physiological motion, and technical acquisition conditions. It is the responsibility of the clinician to select the reconstruction method appropriate for the specific clinical task and patient population.

Summary of Spectral Precise Image IQ test report: - Purpose: The bench performance testing aimed to evaluate the image quality and spectral accuracy of the Spectral Precise Image (SPI) feature. The objective was to demonstrate that SPI meets or exceeds the performance of the reference reconstruction method (iDose Level 0/FBP) in key image quality and spectral accuracy metrics. - Methods: - Image Quality Metrics Testing - Metrics Evaluated: CT number linearity, image noise, uniformity, contrast-to-noise ratio (CNR), spatial resolution (MTF and SSP), low contrast resolution (visual), and image artifacts. - Phantoms Used: Verida system phantom, Gammex ACR phantom, Catphan phantom. - Test Design: Scans were performed in head, body, and cardiac modes, with varying kV, dose, and resolution settings. Reconstructed were performed using SPI at five AI levels and compared to iDose Level 0 using equivalent filters. Measurements were taken using identical raw data and reconstruction parameters. - Assessment: Visual and quantitative analysis of image quality metrics. - Spectral Accuracy Testing - Metrics Evaluated: Monochromatic energy (MonoE, HU), virtual non-contrast (VNC, HU), iodine density (mg/ml), iodine no water (mg/ml), iodine removed (HU), contrast-enhanced structures (HU), calcium suppression (HU), Z effective, electron density (%EDW), uric acid and uric acid removed (HU). - Phantoms Used: Gammex 472, Gammex 467, Gammex ACR, 20cm MECT phantom. - Test Design: Scans performed in head, body, and cardiac modes, with approximately 35 scans and 400 reconstructions. Measurements were made by drawing ROIs on phantom rods and comparing SPI and iDose Level 0 results. - Assessment: Accuracy and noise reduction were measured, with tolerances referenced from system requirements. - Results: - Image Quality Metrics - SPI improved some image quality metrics (notably image noise and CNR) and preserved others (CT number linearity, uniformity, spatial resolution, low contrast resolution). - No new or unexpected artifacts were observed. Page 29 of 32 {34} - SPI preserved low contrast resolution. #### Spectral Accuracy - SPI preserved the accuracy of all tested spectral results compared to iDose Level 0, with differences well within system requirement tolerances. - For results with noise blending (e.g., MonoE), SPI reduced image noise compared to iDose Level 0. - For Z Effective and Electron Density, differences between SPI and iDose Level 0 were negligible and much smaller than tolerance limits. - For Uric Acid and Uric Acid Removed, differences were within [-1HU, 1HU], far below the minimum tolerance of ±20HU. All these tests were used to support substantial equivalence of the subject device and demonstrate that the proposed Spectral CT Verida Family system: - Complies with the aforementioned international and FDA-recognized consensus\standards and/or FDA guidance document, and; - Meets the acceptance criteria and is adequate for its intended use. Therefore, the proposed Spectral CT Verida Family system is substantially equivalent to the currently marketed primary predicate device, Spectral CT 7500 RT system (K240844), in terms of safety and effectiveness ## SUMMARY OF CLINICAL TESTING Summary of Spectral Precise Image Clinical Study Report: The clinical study was conducted per FDA guidance “Clinical Performance Studies for Diagnostic Imaging Devices” and “Best Practices for Conducting and Reporting Clinical Studies in 510(k)s.” - Purpose: The purpose of the study was to evaluate the Image Quality (IQ), and diagnostic confidence of Spectral Precise Image for CT 7700 Scanner as compared with iDose4 as a standard-of-care reference - Study Overview: - Title: Clinical study for Spectral Precise Image (SPI) algorithm - Device: Philips Spectral CT Verida Family - Protocol ID: SEF-2024-300450, Version 6.0 - Sponsor: Philips Medical Systems Technologies Ltd. - Sites: Hospital of the University of Pennsylvania (UPenn), Albert Einstein College of Medicine/Montefiore Medical Center - Study Design: Retrospective, multi-site, controlled, blinded, non-inferiority clinical investigation - Population: Adults aged >22 years, scanned using Philips Spectral CT (K203020) - Sample Size: 147 scans (Head: 42, Body: 42, Cardiac: 42, Chest: 21) - Initiation Date: 15-JUL-2025 - Completion Date: 30-SEP-2025 - Methods: - Data: Previously acquired, anonymized clinical CT data. - Reconstructions: Each scan reconstructed with both iDose⁴ and SPI for: - Conventional images Page 30 of 32 {35} Page 31 of 32 - Spectral MonoE images (MonoE 70keV for Cardiac/Body, 66keV for Head) - Readers: U.S. board-certified radiologists/cardiologists, blinded to reconstruction method. - Assessment: Images presented side-by-side, randomized order; 5-point Likert scale for image quality and diagnostic confidence. - Endpoints: - Co-primary: Non-inferiority of SPI vs. iDose⁴ for image quality and diagnostic confidence in both conventional and spectral images. - Secondary: Comparison of SPI spectral images to iDose⁴ conventional images, performance in chest high-resolution scans, success rate, and reader agreement. - Conclusion - SPI is non-inferior to iDose⁴ for image quality in both conventional and spectral images across all anatomical regions tested. - SPI offers improved image texture, and higher reader agreement, in clinical image reconstruction. - The study supports the robust clinical performance and substantial equivalence of SPI to the predicate device. The clinical investigation demonstrates that the Spectral Precise Image (SPI) algorithm for the proposed Spectral CT Verida Family system provides image quality that is at least as good as, the standard iDose⁴ reconstruction. SPI is preferred by readers for image texture and achieves high consistency and success rates across all evaluated anatomical regions and image types. No new safety issues were identified. ## SUMMARY OF RISK ANALYSIS A risk analysis was performed for Spectral CT Verida Family system in accordance with ISO 14971 and the Philips Quality Management System. Identified hazards and hazardous situations associated with the software were evaluated, and appropriate risk control measures were implemented to mitigate identified risks. Verification and validation testing demonstrated that all defined risk control measures were correctly implemented and effective, and that all software requirements and specifications met their predefined acceptance criteria. Residual risks were evaluated and determined to be acceptable based on a benefit-risk assessment consistent with the device's intended use. The results of software verification and validation activities support that Spectral CT Verida Family system performs as intended and does not introduce new questions of safety or effectiveness when compared to the predicate device. The testing conducted is sufficient to support the determination of substantial equivalence. ## SUMMARY OF CYBERSECURITY The cybersecurity testing for the Spectral CT Verida Family system was conducted in accordance with FDA-recognized consensus standards and specifically aligns with the following FDA guidance: - Cybersecurity in Medical Devices: Quality System Considerations and Content of Premarket Submissions (FDA, June 27, 2025) - Additional relevant FDA software and risk management guidance documents.

A corrective action was planned prior to customer release. - All cybersecurity testing, findings, and mitigations are documented and traceable to requirements and risk assessments. - The submission includes a Software Bill of Materials (SBOM) and Manufacturer Disclosure Statement for Medical Device Security (MDS2) for transparency ## Conclusion The cybersecurity testing for the Spectral CT Verida Family system was comprehensive and aligned with FDA guidance. It included risk assessments, verification of security controls, vulnerability scanning, penetration testing, secure code analysis, and thorough documentation of all findings and mitigations. All known issues were documented and managed, with no unresolved vulnerabilities impacting safety or effectiveness at the time of submission. ## SUMMARY OF BIOCOMPATIBILITY TESTING The patient-contacting materials of the Spectral CT Verida Family were evaluated in accordance with ISO 10993-1:2018 using a risk-based approach. The device includes patient-contacting components that contact intact skin for limited duration (<24 hours). The patient-contacting materials used in the Verida system are addressed in Attachment G of "Use of International Standard ISO 10993-1, 'Biological evaluation of medical devices - Part 1: Evaluation and testing within a risk management process'" and pose a very low biocompatibility risk because they have a long history of safe use in legally marketed medical devices that contact intact skin. Based on the above, the Spectral CT Verida Family meets the biocompatibility requirements of ISO 10993-1, and no additional biocompatibility testing is required. Page 32 of 32
