More Information

Not Found

No
The description focuses on standard image acquisition, viewing, storage, and transmission using DICOM, with no mention of AI, ML, or advanced image analysis beyond basic processing.

No
The device is a general-purpose software for image acquisition, viewing, and transmission, not a therapeutic device.

No

The device is described as a "general purpose software designed for the acquisition/capture/view/archival and transmission of medical images." It is used for handling and displaying images from various sources, but there is no indication that it analyzes or interprets these images to provide a diagnosis or aid in diagnosis. It's a teleradiology system, which facilitates the viewing and transmission of images, not their diagnostic interpretation.

Yes

The device description explicitly states it is "general purpose software" that operates on "off the shelf" hardware. It focuses on the software's functions (acquisition, capture, view, archival, transmission, processing, display) and communication standards (DICOM), without describing any proprietary or specific hardware components included as part of the device itself.

Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • IVD Definition: In vitro diagnostics are tests performed on samples taken from the human body (like blood, urine, or tissue) to detect diseases, conditions, or infections.
  • Device Function: The T.I.M.S. system is described as a general-purpose software for acquiring, viewing, storing, transmitting, and processing medical images. It handles image data from various imaging modalities (CT, MR, US, etc.).
  • Lack of Biological Sample Analysis: The description does not mention any analysis of biological samples. The device operates solely on image data.
  • Focus on Image Management: The core function is managing and displaying medical images for diagnostic interpretation by medical professionals.

Therefore, the T.I.M.S. system falls under the category of medical imaging software or a Picture Archiving and Communication System (PACS) component, not an in vitro diagnostic device.

    1. Device Description
      K 001947
      Page 2 of 3

The T.I.M.S. Teleradiology system is a general purpose software designed for the acquisition/capture/view/archival and transmission of medical images. The software operates on "off the shelf" hardware using a Windows 95 or higher platform. It is designed to capture, acquire, send, receive, archive and display patient images and data, using the DICOM communication standard. T.I.M.S. can be installed on a PC in the hospital, via a web-browser, and on a local LAN or WAN, and includes teleradiology, connectivity and display features. It employs the latest internet security techniques, including 128 bit encryption.

    1. Indications for Use
      T.I.M.S. receives image data, acquired from various sources, including but not limited to CT, MR, US, Nuclear, digital angiography and flourography, secondary capture devices (frame grabbers), scanners or other imaging sources. Images and data can be stored, transmitted (communicated), processed at the workstation, physician's desktop or other clinical application and distributed across networks or the world wide web.
    1. Substantial Equivalence Comparison
      T.I.M.S. is a medical imaging software device that is substantially equivalent to medical image software devices previously cleared and marketed under the names of Olicon 02-Workstation and/or PACSView software (K973959) and Images-On-Call teleragiology system (K896095). The predicate devices have the same intended use for the receipt of images and data from imaging modalities, secondary capture devices, scanners or imaging gateways. This device does not offer any new functions that have not received previous clearance from the Agency.
    1. Safety and Effectiveness
      T.I.M.S. software system is primarily used to capture/view/archive/transmit medical images. It does not require specialized or nonstandard devices of any type. Image acquisition and display is via the industry-standard DICOM 3 protocol, allowing the images to be produced the data originated by the imaging modality, either digital or analog. The software will operate on standard "off the shelt" hardware and system configurations. Similar to predicate devices it can be used with image compression. The lossy/lossless image compression libraries are believed to be substantially equivalent to the libraries used in previously cleared devises.

The software is intended to provide the means for medical professionals to I is soll ware generated by medical scanning devices on a personal computer or workstation.

9. Conclusion

Similar to predicate devices, the T.I.M.S. system software does not contact the patient, or control any life sustaining devices. Images and information being reviewed, processed, relayed, and or transmitted are interpreted by a physician or trained medical personnel, providing ample opportunity for competent human intervention. In device failures which might result in partial or failed transmissions, the images and or data may be recovered by re-transmission after correcting the problems. Passwords are required for operation and to protect against unauthorized use of the system.
