What FDA cleared it for
The Indications for Use statement, verbatim, from the decision document.
uCT ATLAS Astound is a computed tomography x-ray system, which is intended to produce cross-sectional images of the whole body by computer reconstruction of x-ray transmission data taken at different angles and planes. uCT ATLAS Astound is applicable to head, whole body, cardiac, and vascular x-ray Computed Tomography. uCT ATLAS Astound is intended to be used for low dose CT lung cancer screening for the early detection of lung nodules that may represent cancer. The screening must be performed within the established inclusion criteria of programs / protocols that have been approved and published by either a governmental body or professional medical society. * Please refer to clinical literature, including the results of the National Lung Screening Trial (N Engl J Med 2011; 365:395-409) and subsequent literature, for further information. uWS-CT-Dual Energy Analysis is a post-processing software package that accepts UIH CT images acquired using different tube voltages and/or tube currents of the same anatomical location. The various materials of an anatomical region of interest have different attenuation coefficients, which depend on the used energy. These differences provide information on the chemical composition of the scanned body materials and enable images to be generated at multiple energies within the available spectrum. uWS-CT-Dual Energy Analysis software combines images acquired with low and high energy spectra to visualize this information.

Adverse-event reports in MAUDE, by product code
As of , MAUDE held 5,281 reports filed against devices carrying product code JAK. That code is shared by every device of this type, not this device alone, and MAUDE reports are submitted by manufacturers, facilities and the public without FDA verification. The latest reports, in the reporter’s words:
25 September 2026 · Malfunction · REVOLUTION EVO · GE MEDICAL SYSTEMS, LLC · report 50896044
The GE CT table wouldn't move during stroke. Patient had to be physically moved to resume scan, delay in care. GE CT table has had the same issues with the table working intermittently x 3 weeks. Multiple techs have worked on it and the same problem persists.

23 September 2026 · Malfunction · ILLUMISITE · COVIDIEN LP - SUPERDIMENSION INC · report 3004962788-2026-00087
It was reported that during the procedure, one locatable guide indicated as outside of the sensor sensing volume and another locatable guide had difficulty retracting from the extended working channel. The physician completed the superDimension portion of the case. No patient complications have been reported as a result of this event.
