The summary describes a medical imaging software focused on viewing, storing, transmitting, and processing images, with features like teleradiology, telemedicine, and DICOM compatibility. There is no mention of AI, ML, or related concepts like deep learning, neural networks, or algorithms that learn from data. The "image processing" mentioned is likely standard image manipulation and display, not AI-driven analysis.
No.
The device is intended for viewing, processing, and transmitting medical images for diagnosis, not for providing therapy.
Yes
The intended use explicitly states that the software is used to "render a diagnosis" based on the viewing, processing, and transmission of medical images.
Yes
The device is described as "VIEWSEND Medical software" and its functionality is entirely based on software modules running on a PC-based platform. While it interacts with hardware (PC, communication networks, imaging modalities), the device itself is the software.
Based on the provided text, this device is not an In Vitro Diagnostic (IVD).
Here's why:
- IVDs analyze biological samples: In Vitro Diagnostics are designed to examine specimens taken from the human body, such as blood, urine, or tissue, to provide information about a person's health.
- This device processes medical images: The description clearly states that VIEWSEND Medical software is intended to "view, retrieve, store, import, process, collaborate, and/or transmit medical images." It deals with visual data from imaging modalities, not biological samples.
- The intended use is for diagnosis based on images: The purpose is to "render a diagnosis" based on the interpretation of medical images.
Therefore, while it is a medical device used for diagnosis, it falls under the category of medical imaging software rather than an In Vitro Diagnostic.

Intended Use / Indications for Use
When installed on an appropriate PC-based platform, VIEWSEND Medical software is intended to provide the medical professional with the capability to view, retrieve, store, import, process, collaborate, and/or transmit medical images in order to render a diagnosis. Options allow for teleradiology, telemedicine, videoconferencing, collaboration, DICOM 3.0, communications, viewer, customizable database, stand-alone or client/server or web-based, compression, or security. Communications between systems can be performed over wireless/wired LAN, ISDN, T1, ATM, satellite, and/or plain old telephone system (POTS). The DICOM 3.0 option allows for query, retrieve, send, receive, print, or DICOM Dir actions with DICOM 3.0 compliant modalities or server.

Device Description
When integrated into an appropriate PC-based platform, VIEWSEND Medical imaging software contains several modules to enable the medical professional to view, retrieve, store, import, process, collaborate, and transmit medical images in order to render a diagnosis. VIEWSEND Medical software can include teleradiology, telemedicine, and videoconferencing in an open system that runs under the Microsoft Windows 98/2000/NT operating system.
VIEWSEND Medical software is modular and able to provide one or more of the VIEWSEND standard features to match clinical needs - teleradiology, telemedicine, videoconferencing, collaboration, DICOM 3.0, communications, viewer, customizable database, stand-alone or client/server or web-based, compression, or security.
Existing medical films can be digitized, scanned, and stored as DICOM 3.0 images. Communications between systems can be performed over wireless/wired LAN, ISDN, T1, ATM, satellite, or plain old telephone system (POTS). The DICOM option allows for query, retrieve, send, receive, print, or DICOM Dir actions with DICOM 3.0 compliant modalities or servers.
VIEWSEND Medical software allows medical professionals in remote locations to view, discuss and consult on the same images of a patient case file. This can be done with live cameras and scopes or by sending high-resolution files that have been scanned into the remotely located PC.
VIEWSEND Medical software allows images to be sent from the archive files of one machine, and be transported to a different server, so that images from previous examinations may be compared with new more up-to-date images. These stored images can be at the physician request, sent in advance to save time and bandwidth during crucial consultations. Communications between VIEWSEND systems can use industry standard 128-bit encryption, and/or JPEG or JPEG2000 compression.

§ 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)

Dear Mr. Logsdon:
We have reviewed your Section 510(k) premarket notification of intent to market the device referenced above and have determined the device is substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to legally marketed predicate devices marketed in interstate commerce prior to May 28, 1976, the enactment date of the Medical Device Amendments, or to devices that have been reclassified in accordance with the provisions of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (Act) that do not require approval of a premarket approval application (PMA). You may, therefore, market the device, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act. The general controls provisions of the Act include requirements for annual registration, listing of devices, good manufacturing practice, labeling, and prohibitions against misbranding and adulteration.
If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (PMA), it may be subject to additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 898. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register.
Please be advised that FDA's issuance of a substantial equivalence determination does not mean that FDA has made a determination that your device complies with other requirements of the Act or any Federal statutes and regulations administered by other Federal agencies. You must comply with all the Act's requirements, including, but not limited to: registration and listing (21 CFR Part 807); labeling (21 CFR Part 801); good manufacturing practice requirements as set forth in the quality systems (QS) regulation (21 CFR Part 820); and if applicable, the electronic product radiation control provisions (sections 531-542 of the Act); 21 CFR 1000-1050.
