Intended Use

The AETmed Medical image processing Software is a software device intended to be used by qualified medical professionals, after proper installation on an appropriate hardware platform, for capturing, retrieving, viewing, processing, printing, archiving, and communicating medical images, such as cardiac catheterization, echo-cardiography, and general radiological studies.

Device Description

The AETmed Medical image processing Software is a software device intended to be used by qualified medical professionals, after proper installation on an appropriate hardware platform, for capturing, retrieving, viewing, processing, printing, archiving, and communicating medical images, such as cardiac catheterization, echo-cardiography, and general radiological studies.

The Version 3.0 DICOMed Family Software System consists of the following components:

  • DICOMed DIG.IT image acquisition and CD recording station
  • DICOMed P@CS image archiving manager
  • DICOMed Review Cardio review workstation for cardiology
  • DICOMed Review diagnostic review workstation for radiology
AI/ML Overview

The provided text is a 510(k) summary for the AETmed Image Processing Software. It focuses on demonstrating substantial equivalence to predicate devices rather than providing detailed acceptance criteria and a study proving the device meets those criteria.

Therefore, many of the requested items cannot be extracted directly from this document. The document primarily uses a Substantial Equivalence Comparison Chart (Table 1) to compare the features of the AETmed Image Processing Software with predicate devices. This comparison implicitly serves as the "study" for acceptance, indicating that if the new device has comparable or superior features to legally marketed predicate devices, it is considered substantially equivalent.

Here's a breakdown of what can and cannot be answered based on the provided text:


1. A table of acceptance criteria and the reported device performance

The document does not explicitly state "acceptance criteria" in the traditional sense of measurable performance metrics with thresholds. Instead, it demonstrates "substantial equivalence" by comparing device features with legally marketed predicate devices. The "reported device performance" is implicitly shown through this feature comparison.

2. Sample size used for the test set and the data provenance (e.g., country of origin of the data, retrospective or prospective)

The document does not describe a "test set" in the context of a performance study with patient data. It is a comparison of product features. Therefore, this information is not applicable and not provided.


3. Number of experts used to establish the ground truth for the test set and the qualifications of those experts (e.g., radiologist with 10 years of experience)

This information is not applicable as no "test set" with ground truth established by experts is described for a performance study. The ground truth for feature comparison is the specifications of the predicate devices.


4. Adjudication method (e.g., 2+1, 3+1, none) for the test set

Not applicable, as no test set or adjudication process for clinical performance is described.


5. If a multi reader multi case (MRMC) comparative effectiveness study was done, If so, what was the effect size of how much human readers improve with AI vs without AI assistance

No MRMC comparative effectiveness study is mentioned or implied. The device is image processing software, not an AI diagnostic tool designed to assist human readers in a diagnostic task that can be quantified with an effect size.


6. If a standalone (i.e., algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) was done

The device is image processing software intended for use by "qualified medical professionals." It is not described as a standalone diagnostic algorithm. The demonstration of substantial equivalence focuses on functional features, not independent diagnostic performance.


7. The type of ground truth used (expert consensus, pathology, outcomes data, etc.)

The document does not report a ground truth based on clinical data or expert consensus in relation to diagnostic accuracy. The "ground truth" for the substantial equivalence claim is the features and specifications of the predicate devices.


8. The sample size for the training set

Not applicable. The document describes image processing software, not a machine learning model that requires a training set.


9. How the ground truth for the training set was established

Not applicable, as there is no training set for a machine learning model described.

§ 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).
