On June 5, 2023, GE HealthCare announced the FDA 510(k) clearance of Sonic DL™.  GE HealthCare reports that Sonic DL™ is a deep learning-based technology intended to capture cardiac MRI images within a single heartbeat.

GE HealthCare states that current cardiovascular MRI systems require prolonged breath holding because several heartbeats are required to capture acceptable imaging.  According to the announcement, Sonic DL™ introduces an AI deep learning-based technology into the cardiac MRI method and produces results 12 times faster than the standard procedures.

Jie Xue, President & CEO and Global MR of GE HealthCare, stated:
