Submitted by Teratech Corp. (Burlington, US). The FDA issued a Cleared decision on January 29, 2003 after a review of 8 days - a notably fast clearance cycle.

This device falls under the Radiology FDA review panel, regulated under 21 CFR 892.1550 - the FDA radiology and imaging software oversight framework.
