Intended Use
Extended Field of View is part of the software module within the CT operating system and provides the selection and image reconstruction variable up to a fixed limit. As an option the limit has been extended up to 70 cm and the use of this special application requires a license key.
Device Description
Extended Field of View is software package, which supports the selection and image reconstruction with variable targets. The maximum of visualization has been extended to the length of 70 cm2. Due to the extrapolation of the reconstructed data and the convolution with a suitable Fast Fourier Transformation this software package allows the desired extended Field of View (FoV).
More Information

No
The description focuses on image reconstruction through extrapolation and Fast Fourier Transformation, which are traditional signal processing techniques, not AI/ML. There is no mention of AI, ML, or related concepts like training or test sets.

No
The device is a software module for a CT operating system that extends the field of view for image reconstruction. It does not directly provide therapy or affect a patient's health outcome. Its function is limited to image processing for diagnostic purposes.

No
Explanation: The device is described as a software module that extends the field of view for image reconstruction in a CT operating system. It processes images (reconstruction) but does not provide diagnosis or contribute to diagnostic information itself. Its function is to enable a wider view for the existing CT system.

No

The device is described as a "software module within the CT operating system" and a "software package". While it is software, it is explicitly stated to be part of a CT system, which is a hardware device. The software's function is to extend the field of view for image reconstruction within that hardware system. Therefore, it is not a standalone software-only medical device.

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

Here's why:

  • IVDs are used to examine specimens derived from the human body. The intended use and device description clearly state that this software is part of a CT operating system and is used for image reconstruction from CT scans. CT scans are images of the inside of the body, not specimens taken from the body.
  • The function described is image processing/reconstruction. The software extends the field of view for CT images. This is a function related to medical imaging, not laboratory testing of biological samples.

The information provided aligns with a medical imaging software component, not an in vitro diagnostic device.
