K220961 is an FDA 510(k) clearance for the Deep Learning Image Reconstruction. Classified as System, X-ray, Tomography, Computed (product code JAK), Class II - Special Controls.

Submitted by Ge Healthcare Japan Corporation (Hino, JP). The FDA issued a Cleared decision on July 29, 2022 after a review of 119 days - within the typical 510(k) review window.

This device falls under the Radiology FDA review panel, regulated under 21 CFR 892.1750 - the FDA radiology and imaging software oversight framework. As a Special 510(k), this submission covers a manufacturer modification to an existing cleared device rather than a new device introduction.

Device pattern: Incremental AI imaging tool. Moderate equivalence dependency. Overall, this clearance reflects a predicate-aligned approval typical of modern AI radiology extensions - not a novel clinical breakthrough, but a validated iteration within an established regulatory category.
