More Information

Not Found

No
The document describes image processing software for segmentation but does not mention AI, ML, or related terms like deep learning.

No.
The device facilitates image segmentation for visualization and analysis, which is not a direct therapeutic action.

No
The device description states it "facilitates visualization of vessel features and assists in segmentation of bony structures" and "is intended to facilitate segmentation of bony structures." This indicates it is an image processing tool to aid in visualization and segmentation, not to diagnose medical conditions or determine a patient's health status. It is a utility for image analysis, not a diagnostic decision-making tool itself.

Yes

The device is described as a "software package" and an "optional software extension" that runs on existing hardware (Advantage Workstations). There is no mention of any accompanying hardware components being part of the device itself.

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 AutoBone software processes medical images (CT Angiography data) to segment bony structures. It does not analyze biological samples from the body.
  • Intended Use: The intended use is to facilitate the visualization and segmentation of bony structures from imaging data, which is a function related to medical imaging analysis, not in vitro testing.

Therefore, AutoBone falls under the category of medical imaging software, not an in vitro diagnostic device.
