Ingenia, Ingenia CX, Ingenia Elition, Ingenia Ambition, BlueSeal, MR 5300 and MR 7700 MR System

Philips Medical Systems Nederland B.V.

Authorized purpose: The Philips 1.5T and 3T MRI system family with release R12.3 supports broad diagnostic and interventional imaging and adds SmartSpeed Precise machine-learning reconstruction.

Evidence status: each field states its source quality, applicability, and review date. Research pending, information not established, and vendor documentation pending remain distinct outcomes.

Product overview

Start with the essentials

Authorized purpose: The Philips 1.5T and 3T MRI system family with release R12.3 supports broad diagnostic and interventional imaging and adds SmartSpeed Precise machine-learning reconstruction.

Overview status: Source-reviewed overview

Clinical takeaway

Clinical role: The Philips 1.5T and 3T MRI system family with release R12.3 supports broad diagnostic and interventional imaging and adds SmartSpeed Precise machine-learning reconstruction.

Evidence takeaway

Evidence from the reviewed source record: K251397 reports nonclinical software, system, image-quality, and sample-image validation; no clinical study was required. Eight exact-identifier recall records concern MRE stiffness errors under specified reconstruction settings, not every scan or AI feature.

Start with the authorized purpose, then verify how it fits your service line and reading workflow.

Exact purpose
The Philips 1.5T and 3T MRI system family with release R12.3 supports broad diagnostic and interventional imaging and adds SmartSpeed Precise machine-learning reconstruction.

Exact FDA decision-summary packet reviewed on 2026-09-19; existing wording is supported without expansion.

Output and human action
This MR system enables trained physicians to obtain cross-sectional images, spectroscopic images and/or spectra of the internal structure of the head, body or extremities, in any orientation, representing the spatial distribution of protons or other nuclei with spin. The systems can use combinations of images to produce physical parameters, and related derived images. Images, spectra, and measurements of physical parameters, when interpreted by a trained physician, provide information that may assist diagnosis and therapy planning.
  • FDA source
  • Exact FDA submission
  • Checked 2026-09-19

The direct packet supports images, spectra, physical parameters, derived images, and measurements; the current reconstructed-series and workflow-results additions are not retained.

Limitations
Image appearance is determined by many different physical properties of the tissue and the anatomy, the MR scan technique applied, and presence of contrast agents. The use of contrast agents for diagnostic imaging applications should be performed consistent with the approved labeling for the contrast agent. The accuracy of determined physical parameters depends on system and scan parameters and must be controlled and validated by the clinical user. MR Interventional procedures, performed inside or adjacent to the Philips MR system, must be performed with MR Conditional or MR Safe instrumentation as selected and evaluated by the clinical user for use with the specific MR system configuration in the hospital. The appropriateness and use of information from a Philips MR system for a specific interventional procedure and specific MR system configuration must be validated by the clinical user.

These are the packet's direct contrast, scan-parameter, instrumentation, and clinical-user validation boundaries; the current broad release and population limitation is not stated.
