More Information

Not Found

No
The summary does not contain any keywords or descriptions related to AI or ML, and the device description is a standard navigation system.

No
The device provides image guidance during neurosurgical operations, which is an assistive tool for the surgeon, but it does not directly treat a disease or condition itself.

No
The text indicates the device provides image guidance and feedback during neurosurgical operations, which describes an assistive or guidance function rather than diagnosis. It does not state that it identifies a disease, condition, or provides a diagnosis.

No

The device description explicitly states "Nicolet Biomedical Electromagnetic Navigation System," which strongly implies a hardware component (electromagnetic navigation system) in addition to any potential software. The summary does not provide information to suggest it is solely software.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is "intra-operative image guidance during neurosurgical operations." This describes a device used during a surgical procedure on a patient, not a test performed outside the body on biological samples.
  • Device Description: The description "Nicolet Biomedical Electromagnetic Navigation System" further supports the idea of a system used for navigation within the body during surgery.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: The document does not mention any of the typical characteristics of an IVD, such as:
    • Analyzing biological samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.)
    • Detecting or measuring substances in biological samples
    • Providing information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening based on biological samples

Therefore, based on the provided text, the NEN is a surgical navigation system, not an In Vitro Diagnostic device.

§ 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)
