The description focuses on image acquisition, storage, display, and basic enhancement/filtering tools. It explicitly states that analysis is provided via "approved industry standard third party software," which does not indicate integrated AI/ML within the core device. There is no mention of AI, ML, or related concepts like deep learning or algorithms that learn from data.
No.
The device is described as software for acquiring, storing, enhancing, and displaying medical images, along with integrating third-party analysis tools. It does not directly provide therapeutic treatment or intervention.
No
The device is described as software for acquiring, storing, enhancing, and viewing medical images. It also allows for analysis of acquired images via integrated third-party software. While it facilitates the viewing and analysis of images, the provided text does not state that the device itself performs diagnostic functions or makes diagnostic interpretations. Its role is primarily in image management and display.
No
The device description explicitly states it is a "computerized system" that acquires images and stores them on "Hard Disk Drives, Magnetic Tape, CD-R or DVD," which are hardware components. While the core functionality is software-based, the system includes and relies on specific hardware for storage and potentially acquisition (though it also mentions video source acquisition).
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, such as blood, urine, or tissue, to detect diseases, conditions, or infections.
- Device function: The description of HCP DICOM Net® clearly states its purpose is to acquire, store, view, and process medical images from various imaging modalities (catheterization labs, Echo, CT, MRI, etc.). It deals with images of the body, not with analyzing biological samples taken from the body.
- Lack of mention of biological samples: There is no mention of analyzing blood, urine, tissue, or any other biological sample.
- Focus on image processing and management: The core functions described are related to image acquisition, storage, retrieval, display, enhancement, and conversion.
Therefore, HCP DICOM Net® falls under the category of medical imaging software and systems, not in vitro diagnostics.

Device Description
HCP DICOM Net® is a computerized system that acquires images which are captured by cardiac catherterization laboratories and other modalities like Echocardiograms. MRI & CT. These images are acquired through a video source or a DICOM3 interface of the modality. These images are then stored in DICOM3 format on Hard Disk Drives, Magnetic Tape. CD-R or DVD. If images are acquired through a video source, in a non-DICOM3 format then these images are converted into a DICOM3 format before they are stored. After storage these images are retrieved and displayed on workstations for convenient review and analysis. Analysis of images is provided via approved industry standard third party software. These workstations are also capable of reading DICOM3 images from CD and DVD media and uploading them to the image store for retrieval, viewing and analysis at a later time.

§ 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)

510(K) SUMMARY
This summary of 510(k) safety and effectiveness information is being submitted in accordance with the requirements of SMDA 1990 and 21 CFR §807.92.
The assigned 510(k) number is:
1. Submitter's Identification:
Softlink International Inc. 199 Main Street Suite 314 White Plains, NY 10601

2. Name of the Device:
HCP DICOM Net®
3. Predicate Device Information:
- Digital Imaging Systems, K#954159, Camtronics, Ltd., Hartland, WI 1. (892.2050, Product Code LLZ).
-
- The TCS-Telecardiology System, Medcon Ltd., Efrat, Israel (892.1600, Product Code IZI).

4. Device Description:
HCP DICOM Net® is a computerized system that acquires images which are captured by cardiac catherterization laboratories and other modalities like Echocardiograms. MRI & CT. These images are acquired through a video source or a DICOM3 interface of the
1
modality. These images are then stored in DICOM3 format on Hard Disk Drives, Magnetic Tape. CD-R or DVD. If images are acquired through a video source, in a non-DICOM3 format then these images are converted into a DICOM3 format before they are stored. After storage these images are retrieved and displayed on workstations for convenient review and analysis. Analysis of images is provided via approved industry standard third party software. These workstations are also capable of reading DICOM3 images from CD and DVD media and uploading them to the image store for retrieval, viewing and analysis at a later time.
5. Intended Use:
HCP DICOM Net® is a software device intended to acquire and store medical images studies from catherterization laboratories. Echo cardiograms. CT & MRI and other such modalities. In addition, HCP its DICOM Net provides image enhancement and filtering tools for viewing of selected images. It also imports image studies from DICOM CD's/DVD's, makes copies of image studies and converts and exports image studies into DICOM3 and other commercial file formats. HCP DICOM Net® also integrates industry standard third party approved software within its application to allow for analysis of the acquired image.
6. Comparison to Predicate Devices:
HCP DICOM Net® provides convenient acquisition, storage and review of DICOM3 images like the ComView WriteStar and Medcon TCS-Cardiology System. HCP DICOM Net® unlike the Camtronics Digital Imaging System and ComView ViewStar and WriteStar, is a software only device that runs on industry standard PCs running windows based operating systems. HCP DICOM Net®, like the Camtronics Digital Imaging System and the ComView ViewStar/WriteStar System, can acquire analog images and convert them to a digital DICOM 3 image format and this functionality is intended to replace film.
7. Discussion of Non-Clinical Tests Performed for Determination of Substantial Equivalence are as follows:
Testing information demonstrating safety and effectiveness of the HCP DICOM Net® device in the intended environment of use is supported by testing that was conducted in accordance with EN-1441 (Risk Analysis) and software validation and verifications testing. In addition, a DICOM Conformance Statement was provided with this submission to DICOM Voluntary Standards.
8. Discussion of Clinical Tests Performed:

9. Conclusions:
The HCP DICOM Net® device has similar intended uses and similar characteristics as the predicate devices. Moreover, software testing contained in this submission demonstrates that any differences in their technological characteristics do not raise any new questions of safety or effectiveness. Thus, the HCP DICOM Net® device is substantially equivalent to the predicate devices.

Dear Ms. Goldstein-Falk
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.
