FDA-cleared profile

syngo.via MI Workflows, syngo MBF

Siemens Medical Solutions USA, Inc.

Authorized purpose: syngo.via molecular-imaging workflows provide viewing, manipulation, quantification, analysis, and comparison of medical images from one or more modalities and time points, including PET or nuclear-medicine functional data and CT or MR anatomical data. The workflows support disease-management activities in oncology, cardiology, neurology, and organ function, and the images or results may aid radiotherapy treatment planning. The submission also describes Scenium neurology review and syngo MBF quantitative myocardial-blood-flow review for supported PET studies.

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

Implementation

Questions for IT, informatics, and operations

Use these fields to structure a vendor demo, security review, and implementation estimate.

Integration
The exact FDA package describes the software as installed on the Siemens syngo.via platform and using supported molecular-imaging workflows; verify the installed release, DICOM routing, identity matching, archive, and local interface behavior.
  • FDA source
  • Exact FDA submission
  • Checked 2026-09-04

This is a partial interface boundary described in the exact FDA package; current local compatibility, routing, identity, archive, and downtime behavior still require acceptance testing.

Deployment and data flow
Not established in reviewed sources
  • Reviewed sources checked
  • Exact FDA submission
  • Checked 2026-09-04

The exact public FDA decision material does not establish the complete deployment topology, hosting responsibility, availability, upgrade path, or service contract.

Security and privacy
Not established in reviewed sources
  • Reviewed sources checked
  • Exact FDA submission
  • Checked 2026-09-04

Public materials reviewed for this exact release do not establish the complete security posture. Request data-flow, identity, audit, encryption, retention, remote-access, vulnerability-management, backup, and incident-response evidence.

Training and support
Only qualified radiologists, nuclear-medicine physicians, and trained imaging professionals should operate or interpret the product. Local onboarding should cover the exact release, supported population, limitations, failure examples, escalation, downtime, and competency documentation.
  • FDA source
  • Exact FDA submission
  • Checked 2026-09-04
Monitoring and change control
Monitor K201195 by exact hardware, software, model, and algorithm version; patient population; anatomy; protocol; operator; input quality; output edits or overrides; failed studies; repeat acquisition or rework; downstream impact; downtime; incidents; recalls; and updates. Track these product-specific limits: Radiopharmaceutical, scan, reconstruction, quantitative, anatomy, and patient limits are exact-configuration dependent; clinical decisions remain with qualified clinicians.
  • FDA source
  • Exact FDA submission
  • Checked 2026-09-04

This is buyer-facing monitoring guidance derived from the exact cleared scope; it is not a claim that the FDA package provides a live monitoring service.

Release and scope verification

Map installed model, build, options, population, anatomy, inputs, outputs, and enabled functions to K201195 before acceptance.

exact submission · checked 2026-09-04

Later product-family features are not evidence that this cleared or authorized release includes them.

Deployment boundary

The exact public deployment topology remains incomplete; establish hosting responsibility, data flow, availability, upgrade, service, and downtime boundaries locally.

exact submission · checked 2026-09-04

FDA-described topology does not establish current hosting contracts, security controls, uptime, or local qualification.

Interoperability acceptance

The exact FDA package describes the software as installed on the Siemens syngo.via platform and using supported molecular-imaging workflows; verify the installed release, DICOM routing, identity matching, archive, and local interface behavior.

exact submission · checked 2026-09-04

Test representative identifiers, orientation, geometry, measurements, units, routing, failure handling, and round trips locally.

Clinical acceptance

Use a signed local test set for the supported population and workflow. Include common and difficult cases, exclusions, acquisition variation, failed or low-quality inputs, reviewer overrides, and downstream effects. Radiopharmaceutical, scan, reconstruction, quantitative, anatomy, and patient limits are exact-configuration dependent; clinical decisions remain with qualified clinicians.

exact submission · checked 2026-09-04

Define stop-use, escalation, rollback, and revalidation triggers before production use.

Economic evaluation

Model capital and recurring cost against net staff time after review, throughput, repeat imaging or rework, room time, consumables, infrastructure, training, service, downtime, upgrade, and replacement costs.

exact submission · checked 2026-09-04

No exact-product price or reimbursement determination was promoted.

Lifecycle monitoring

Monitor K201195 by exact hardware, software, model, and algorithm version; patient population; anatomy; protocol; operator; input quality; output edits or overrides; failed studies; repeat acquisition or rework; downstream impact; downtime; incidents; recalls; and updates. Track these product-specific limits: Radiopharmaceutical, scan, reconstruction, quantitative, anatomy, and patient limits are exact-configuration dependent; clinical decisions remain with qualified clinicians.

K201195

FDA decision material is manufacturer-submitted regulatory evidence. It is not independent clinical validation unless the exact source expressly establishes that distinction; local technical, clinical, privacy, security, and workflow acceptance remains necessary.

Costs and setup

Budget and ongoing governance

These are common procurement questions; unknown values remain visible until a source supports them.

Pricing and total cost
Not established in reviewed sources
  • Reviewed sources checked
  • Exact FDA submission
  • Checked 2026-09-04

No public list price for the exact cleared or authorized configuration was found. Obtain a written quote separating license or hardware basis, implementation, interfaces, infrastructure, training, service, upgrades, renewal, consumables, and exit costs.

Reimbursement and coding
Not established in reviewed sources
  • Reviewed sources checked
  • Exact FDA submission
  • Checked 2026-09-04

No exact-product reimbursement determination was promoted in this timeboxed review. Verify payer, site-of-service, coding, coverage, and local payment assumptions independently.

Safety and lifecycle

Postmarket record

Recall and adverse-event records are shown only after product matching. Adverse-event reports do not establish incidence or causality.

Postmarket safety review
The 2026-09-02 openFDA device-recall snapshot contained no record matched to K201195 by exact native submission identifier. This does not exclude product-family, later-version, or adverse-event information.
  • Public source
  • Exact FDA submission
  • Checked 2026-09-04

Exact-identifier review does not prove absence of all product-family safety signals.
