K994283 is an FDA 510(k) clearance for the MRI- MAGNETIC RESONANCE ANALYTICAL SOFTWARE SYSTEM. Classified as System, Nuclear Magnetic Resonance Imaging (product code LNH), Class II - Special Controls.

Submitted by Medis Medical Imaging Systems BV (Leiden, NL). The FDA issued a Cleared decision on August 30, 2000 after a review of 254 days - an extended review cycle.

This device falls under the Radiology FDA review panel, regulated under 21 CFR 892.1000 - the FDA radiology and imaging software oversight framework. The Traditional 510(k) pathway establishes clearance through substantial equivalence to a legally marketed predicate device, without requiring clinical trial data.

Device pattern: Standard predicate-based submission. Standard predicate reliance. This clearance follows a standard predicate-based equivalence path within the Radiology review framework, consistent with the majority of Class II 510(k) submissions.
