Intended Use

Vitrea Software Package is an application package developed for use on Vitrea®, a medical diagnostic system that allows the processing, review, analysis, communication and media interchange of multidimensional digital images acquired from a variety of imaging devices. Vitrea has the following indications:

The Cerebral Aneurysm Analysis application is intended to facilitate the extraction of user identified aneurysms on the cerebral arteries. The software can be used as an adjunct to diagnosis for the purposes of measurement of size and aspect ratio.

The MR Wall Motion Tracking application is intended to assist physicians with performing cardiac functional analysis based upon magnetic resonance images. It provides measurements of global and regional myocardial function that is used for patients with suspected heart disease.

The MR Coronary Tracking application is intended to assist physicians with performing coronary artery analysis for MR heart images which are intended for the qualitative and quantitative analysis of coronary arteries.

The SUREVolume Synthesis application is intended to load volume images acquired by whole-body X-ray CT scanners, X-ray angiography systems, and MRI systems and displays fusion images.

The Angio Viewer application displays image data acquired using an X-ray angiography system. It supports cine display, subtraction, and distance measurement.

The US Cardiac Fusion application enables fusion display of the analysis results obtained using the US 3D Wall Motion Tracking application and the CT Coronary Artery Analysis application.

The Ultrasound Clinical Applications are indication of structures, and dynamic processes with the human body using saved ultrasound DICOM images to provide image information for diagnosis.

The DE Stone Analysis application is intended to serve as an adjunct visualization tool for the differentiation between uric acid and non-uric acid stones greater than 3mm with Dual Energy CT studies.

The DE Composition Analysis application is intended to serve as an adjunct visualization tool for the uric acid presence within surrounding anatomical structures with Dual Energy CT studies.

Embolization Plan is a post processing software that is intended to assist physicians in the liver arterial tree using 3D images of CT or 3D images of Cone Beam CT (INFX-8000 Interventional Family) acquired by Toshiba or Canon Medical Systems.

17. TESTING

The Dual Energy was subject to risk analysis and regression testing that was conducted through bench testing which are included in this submission to demonstrate that the requirements for the applications have been met. Bench studies were conducted using sample data sets from the predicate device verification activities (K131823) and verifying that the outputs for both devices were substantially the same.

The embolization plan was verified using sample data that was obtained from clinical institutions where local ethical controls were in place. The data was reviewed and verified independently by a test group and a control group. The resulting performance data demonstrated that the software was effective in assisting clinicians to identify the required feeder vessels for embolization planning.

This device is not subject to Cybersecurity Requirements as it has no access to an outside environment. All images being queued by the VSTP-001A are resident on the host Vitrea platform. The host Vitrea platform conducts all external data transactions and the Cybersecurity documentation is included for the Vitrea.
