Intended Use
The Meditherm med2000 thermal imaging system is a thermal based imaging device intended for viewing and digitally storing thermal patterns generated by the human body in the clinical, hospital, healthcare practitioner facilities or in any environment when healthcares were with acute care settings, surgery, healthcare applications. The Meditherm med2000 provides for use with both laptop and desktop computers. The computer provides the user interface, image storage and display. Use of this device is determined by the healthcare professional and is based upon his or her assessment of the patient's medical condition and requirements. The patient populations and many of the populations include all ages of the human body and internal images of the human body. This device is intended for use by qualified healthcare personnel who are trained in its use.

No
The document describes a thermal imaging system for viewing and storing thermal patterns. There is no mention of AI, ML, or any advanced image processing that would suggest the use of these technologies. The computer is described as providing the user interface, image storage, and display, not analysis or interpretation using AI/ML.

No The device is an imaging system intended for viewing and storing thermal patterns, not for treating or providing therapy.

No

The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" section states that the device is "intended for viewing and digitally storing thermal patterns generated by the human body." It does not mention any function for diagnosing diseases or conditions, but rather for providing images for a healthcare professional to assess.

No

The device description explicitly states it is a "thermal based imaging device" and mentions "viewing and digitally storing thermal patterns generated by the human body," which implies the presence of a hardware component (a thermal camera or sensor) to capture these patterns. The computer is described as providing the user interface, storage, and display, not the primary image acquisition.

Based on the provided information, the Meditherm med2000 thermal imaging system is not an In Vitro Diagnostic (IVD) device.

Here's why:

  • IVD devices are used to examine specimens derived from the human body. The intended use and device description clearly state that the Meditherm med2000 is used for "viewing and digitally storing thermal patterns generated by the human body." This involves imaging the body directly, not analyzing samples taken from the body (like blood, urine, tissue, etc.).
  • The input modality is thermal imaging. IVD devices typically involve methods like chemical analysis, immunological assays, or molecular diagnostics performed on biological samples.

The Meditherm med2000 is a medical imaging device that captures thermal information from the body's surface.

(a)
Telethermographic system intended for adjunctive diagnostic screening for detection of breast cancer or other uses —(1)Identification. A telethermographic system for adjunctive diagnostic screening for detection of breast cancer or other uses is an electrically powered device with a detector that is intended to measure, without touching the patient's skin, the self-emanating infrared radiation that reveals the temperature variations of the surface of the body. This generic type of device may include signal analysis and display equipment, patient and equipment supports, component parts, and accessories.(2)
Classification. Class I (general controls).(b)
Telethermographic system intended for use alone in diagnostic screening for detection of breast cancer or other uses —(1)Identification. A telethermographic system for use as the sole diagnostic screening tool for detection of breast cancer or other uses is an electrically powered device with a detector that is intended to measure, without touching the patient's skin, the self-emanating infrared radiation that reveals the temperature variations of the surface of the body. This generic type of device may include signal analysis and display equipment, patient and equipment supports, component parts, and accessories.(2)
