K261289 is an FDA 510(k) clearance for the UNiD™ Spine Analyzer (SW3002). Classified as Automated Radiological Image Processing Software within the QIH classification (a category dominated by AI-based automated radiology processing systems), Class II - Special Controls.

Submitted by Medicrea International S.A.S. (Medtronic) (Rillieux-La-Pape, FR). The FDA issued a Cleared decision on May 15, 2026 after a review of 25 days - a notably fast clearance cycle.

This device falls under the Radiology FDA review panel, regulated under 21 CFR 892.2050 - 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. Low regulatory complexity profile. 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.

Device Classification

Product Code QIH Automated Radiological Image Processing Software
Device Class Class 2 - Special Controls
CFR Regulation 21 CFR 892.2050
Definition To Provide Automated Radiological Image Processing And Analysis Tools. Software Implementing Artificial Intelligence Including Nonadaptive Machine Learning Algorithms Trained With Clinical And/or Artificial Data. In These Devices, The Algorithm Training Data Typically Impacts Device Performance. Adaptive Ai Algorithms Are Not Within Scope Of This Product Code.
What this classification means

Class II devices require demonstration of substantial equivalence to a legally marketed predicate device. This pathway does not require clinical trials - it relies on engineering equivalence and performance data. Most Radiology devices follow this clearance model.
