Authorized purpose: Automatically segment lower-extremity muscle and bone structures from MRI in patients aged 18 years and older and provide derived muscle volume, bone volume, intramuscular fat percentage, and left/right asymmetry metrics; the output is not direct disease diagnosis.
Evidence status: each field states its source quality, applicability, and review date. Research pending, information not established, and vendor documentation pending remain distinct outcomes.

Overview status: Source-reviewed overview
What does this software do?Authorized purpose: Automatically segment lower-extremity muscle and bone structures from MRI in patients aged 18 years and older and provide derived muscle volume, bone volume, intramuscular fat percentage, and left/right asymmetry metrics; the output is not direct disease diagnosis.
Which images or clinical context are in scope?Modality: MRI Anatomy or clinical context: Lower extremities; 72 muscles and 8 bones including pelvis, femur, tibia, and fibula, bilaterally Input: MRI DICOM data from one or more study series, preprocessed into continuous 3D volumes for lower-extremity musculoskeletal segmentation; validation covered multiple manufacturers, field strengths, series settings, and resolutions.
Who uses it?Intended users: Physicians trained to interpret MRI images.
What does the software produce?Output: Automatic segmentations and an interactive 3D model viewer for the supported muscles and bones, with segmentation volume, muscle volume, bone volume, intramuscular fat infiltration or percentage, limb-side asymmetry, and other derived metrics.
What is its most important limitation?Key limitation: The labeled scope is patients aged 18 years and older and excludes patients with tumors in the lower limb. Outputs are only segmentation and derived metrics, cannot directly guide disease diagnosis, and require physician review and editing with appropriate software. The FDA summary does not establish PACS, RIS, EHR, or cloud deployment.
Clinical takeaway
Clinical role: Automatically segment lower-extremity muscle and bone structures from MRI in patients aged 18 years and older and provide derived muscle volume, bone volume, intramuscular fat percentage, and left/right asymmetry metrics; the output is not direct disease diagnosis.
Evidence takeaway
Evidence from the reviewed source record: FDA AI validation used 1,658 training scans from 1,294 subjects and 148 validation scans from 148 subjects; 70% of validation data came from 19 new sites and the validation set covered Siemens, GE, Philips, Canon, and other or unknown MRI systems. Expert manual segmentations were the reference standard. Each of the 80 supported structures and reported healthy, patient, manufacturer, age, and biologic-sex subgroups passed prespecified acceptance criteria using either Dice similarity coefficient or volume difference relative to interobserver variability. The reviewed text does not provide a single overall sensitivity, specificity, AUC, or one pooled numeric result.

What this tool is for
Start with the authorized purpose, then verify how it fits your service line and reading workflow.
Exact purpose
Automatically segment lower-extremity muscle and bone structures from MRI in patients aged 18 years and older and provide derived muscle volume, bone volume, intramuscular fat percentage, and left/right asymmetry metrics; the output is not direct disease diagnosis.
Post-acquisition MRI preprocessing and 3D volume segmentation followed by interactive visualization and metric review; segmentation results must be reviewed and edited using appropriate software.
MRI DICOM data from one or more study series, preprocessed into continuous 3D volumes for lower-extremity musculoskeletal segmentation; validation covered multiple manufacturers, field strengths, series settings, and resolutions.
Automatic segmentations and an interactive 3D model viewer for the supported muscles and bones, with segmentation volume, muscle volume, bone volume, intramuscular fat infiltration or percentage, limb-side asymmetry, and other derived metrics.
The labeled scope is patients aged 18 years and older and excludes patients with tumors in the lower limb. Outputs are only segmentation and derived metrics, cannot directly guide disease diagnosis, and require physician review and editing with appropriate software. The FDA summary does not establish PACS, RIS, EHR, or cloud deployment.
The FDA listing establishes the regulatory identity. It does not by itself establish local workflow fit, pricing, security, or performance in your environment.
Use these fields to structure a vendor demo, security review, and implementation estimate.
Integration
Processes DICOM data on a private-network GPU workstation as a service and uses a web-based interface for data transfer, automated segmentation, and visualization. Specific hospital-system interfaces and local compatibility are not established.
Deployment category preserved from the prior exact-submission review; hosting region, data flow, and current commercial configuration still require vendor confirmation.
Exact-release security controls, data retention, hosting boundaries, and scoped assurance documentation require vendor confirmation.

ACR exact-submission catalog context
ACR AI Central provides an exact-submission model card for MuscleView; FDA labeling remains controlling for clinical use, limitations, and performance.
Metrics are shown only when they are tied to a source, endpoint, population, and tested product version. Candidate literature without exact product and version linkage is not shown as product evidence.
