Read the full statement (195 words)

The HeartVista Workstation with the RTHawk application software is an accessory to 1.5T and 3.0T whole-body magnetic resonance diagnostic devices (MRDD or MR). The HeartVista Workstation with the RTHawk application software is intended to operate alongside, and in parallel with, the existing MR console to acquire real-time and accelerated images. The HeartVista Workstation with the RTHawk application software is indicated for Cardiovascular MR (CMR) applications.

The HeartVista Workstation with the RTHawk application software produces static and dynamic transverse, coronal, sagittal, and oblique cross-sectional images that display the internal structures and/or functions of the entire body. The images produced reflect the spatial distribution of nuclei exhibiting magnetic resonance. The magnetic resonance properties that determine image appearance are proton density, spin-lattice relaxation time (T1), spin-spin relaxation time (T2) and flow. When interpreted by a trained physician, these images provide information that may assist in the determination of a diagnosis.

The HeartVista Workstation with the RTHawk application software is intended for use as an accessory to the following OEM, MRI system, and software release versions:

• GE Healthcare (GEHC) Signa HDxt 1.5T, 3.0T. Software versions 15 and 16

• GE Healthcare (GEHC) DVMR 1.5T, 3.0T. Software version 24

Indications for use as stated in the FDA summary.
