RamSoft PACS software is used with general purpose computing hardware to acquire, transmit, store and display images for clinical purposes. RamSoft PACS consists of one or more of image server, web server, database server, and workstations for interpretation, clinical review, quality control, video capturing, film digitizing, document scanning. Images may be acquired from imaging devices such as CR, CT, DX, MR, NM, PT, RF, US, XA, and other devices.

Device Description

RamSoft PACS is a stand-alone software package that is used on general purpose computing hardware. As long as minimum hardware requirements are met, the user or system integrator is free to choose his/her own hardware platform. The software allows digital image processing, measurement, communication, and storage.

AI/ML Overview

The provided text describes RamSoft PACS, a Picture Archiving and Communication System, but it does not contain information about acceptance criteria or a study proving the device meets specific performance metrics.

The document is a 510(k) summary, which focuses on demonstrating substantial equivalence to predicate devices rather than providing detailed performance data from a clinical or technical study against acceptance criteria.

Here's a breakdown of why this information is missing, based on the provided text:

Intended Use and Description: The document states the software's purpose (acquire, transmit, store, and display images) and that it is "tested according to the specifications that are documented in a RamSoft PACS System Test Plan." However, the details of these specifications (acceptance criteria) and the results of such testing are not included.
Substantial Equivalence: The core of this 510(k) summary is the comparison table to predicate devices (RamSoft Ultrapro 98, Kodak AutoRad, GE Advantage). This table focuses on functional equivalency (e.g., "Print to paper: Yes," "Graphical UI: Yes," "Image input: DICOM 3.0"). This is a comparison of features, not a performance study.
Conclusion: The document explicitly states: "The determination of substantial equivalence is not based on an assessment of performance tests." This directly indicates that the information you are requesting (a study proving device performance against acceptance criteria) was not part of this particular submission for FDA clearance.
Level of Concern: The document mentions "failure or latent design flaw would not be expected to result in death or injury to a patient," classifying the "Level of Concern" as "minor." This relates to risk assessment, not device performance metrics.

Therefore, I cannot provide the requested information from the given text because it is not present. The document focuses on demonstrating substantial equivalence in features and intended use to already cleared devices, rather than presenting a performance study against acceptance criteria for the RamSoft PACS.

510(k) Summary

Contact Name: Lucian Popescu, QA Manager Trade Name - RamSoft PACS Common Name - Picture Archiving and Communication System (PACS) Classification Name - LLZ - Image Processing System (892.2050)

Substantially Equivalent devices:

Ultrapro 98 (RamSoft Inc) - K982563

Kodak AutoRad (Kodak) - K955092

GE Advantage (General Electric Medical Systems) - K94120

Description:

The software allows digital image processing, measurement, communication, and storage.

RamSoft PACS is tested according to the specifications that are documented in a RamSoft PACS System Test Plan. Testing is an integral part of RamSoft's software development process.

The software does not contact the patient, nor does it control any life-sustaining devices. A physician has ample opportunity for competent human intervention while interpreting images and clinical information.

Intended Use:

RamSoft PACS software is used with general purpose computing hardware to acquire, transmit, store and display images for clinical purposes. RamSoft PACS consists of one or more of image server, web server, and workstations for interpretation, dinical review, quality control, video capturing, film digitizing, document scanning. Images may be acquired from imaging devices such as CR, CT, DX, MR, NM, PT, RF, US, XA, and other devices.

Conclusion

In conclusion, RamSoft PACS is substantially equivalent to RamSoft Ultrapro 98, GE Advantage, and Kodak AutoRad. The determination of substantial equivalence is not based on an assessment of performance tests. It is our conclusion that there is no software component in RamSoft PACS product or hardware component which would be used in conjunction with RamSoft PACS product that we know of whose failure or latent design flaw would be expected to result in death or injury to a patient. Thus, the "Level of Concern" of RamSoft PACS product is "minor."

Dear Mr. Popescu:

We have reviewed your Section 510(k) premarket notification of intent to market the device referenced above and have determined the device is substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to legally marketed predicate devices marketed in interstate commerce prior to May 28, 1976, the enactment date of the Medical Device Amendments, or to devices that have been reclassified in accordance with the provisions of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (Act) that do not require approval of a premarket approval application (PMA). You may, therefore, market the device, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act. The general controls provisions of the Act include requirements for annual registration, listing of devices, good manufacturing practice, labeling, and prohibitions against misbranding and adulteration.

If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (PMA). it may be subject to additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 898. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register.

Please be advised that FDA's issuance of a substantial equivalence determination does not mean that FDA has made a determination that your device complies with other requirements of the Act or any Federal statutes and regulations administered by other Federal agencies. You must comply with all the Act's requirements, including, but not limited to: registration and listing (21 CFR Part 807); labeling (21 CFR Part 801); good manufacturing practice requirements as set forth in the quality systems (QS) regulation (21 CFR Part 820); and if applicable, the electronic product radiation control provisions (sections 531-542 of the Act); 21 CFR 1000-1050.

{3}------------------------------------------------

This letter will allow you to begin marketing your device as described in your Section 510(k) premarket notification. The FDA finding of substantial equivalence of your device to a legally marketed predicate device results in a classification for your device and thus, permits your device to proceed to the market.

Regulation Number and Section

§ 892.2050 Medical image management and processing system.

(a)
Identification. A medical image management and processing system is a device that provides one or more capabilities relating to the review and digital processing of medical images for the purposes of interpretation by a trained practitioner of disease detection, diagnosis, or patient management. The software components may provide advanced or complex image processing functions for image manipulation, enhancement, or quantification that are intended for use in the interpretation and analysis of medical images. Advanced image manipulation functions may include image segmentation, multimodality image registration, or 3D visualization. Complex quantitative functions may include semi-automated measurements or time-series measurements.(b)
Classification. Class II (special controls; voluntary standards—Digital Imaging and Communications in Medicine (DICOM) Std., Joint Photographic Experts Group (JPEG) Std., Society of Motion Picture and Television Engineers (SMPTE) Test Pattern).
