No
The description focuses on image registration and navigation based on existing imaging modalities and tracked instruments. There is no mention of AI or ML algorithms being used for image analysis, decision support, or any other function. The changes described are software modifications to handle multiple datasets and improve visualization, not the introduction of AI/ML capabilities.
No.
The device is intended as an aid to the surgeon for precisely locating anatomical structures and providing guidance, not for directly treating a medical condition.
No
The device aids surgeons in precisely locating anatomical structures during surgery using medical images. It does not diagnose medical conditions.
No
The device description explicitly states that the "sensors and instruments used for navigation are identical to those utilized by the existing InstaTrak system," indicating the presence of hardware components beyond just software. While the addition of the Multiple Dataset Navigation mode is a software change, the overall system is not software-only.
Based on the provided text, the InstaTrak 3500 Plus System is not an In Vitro Diagnostic (IVD) device.
Here's why:
- IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostics are devices intended for use in the collection, preparation, and examination of specimens taken from the human body (such as blood, urine, or tissue) to provide information for the diagnosis, monitoring, or treatment of disease.
- InstaTrak's Function: The InstaTrak 3500 Plus System is described as a surgical navigation system. Its purpose is to aid the surgeon in precisely locating anatomical structures during surgical procedures using medical images (CT, MR, X-ray) of the patient's anatomy. It does not involve the analysis of specimens taken from the body.
- Intended Use: The intended use clearly states it's an "aid to the surgeon for precisely locating anatomical structures anywhere on the human body during either open or percutaneous procedures." This is a surgical guidance function, not an in vitro diagnostic function.
Therefore, the InstaTrak 3500 Plus System falls under the category of surgical navigation or image-guided surgery systems, not In Vitro Diagnostics.

Intended Use / Indications for Use
The InstaTrak 3500 Plus System (K983529, originally cleared under the product name InstaTrak 3000) is intended as an aid to the surgeon for precisely locating anatomical structures anywhere on the human body during either open or percutaneous procedures. It is indicated for any medical condition that may benefit from the use of stereotactic surgery and which provides a reference to rigid anatomical structures such as sinus, skull, long bone, or vertebra, visible on medical images such as CT, MR, or X-ray.

Device Description
The InstaTrak system with Multiple Dataset Navigation provides the same capability as the existing system, with the additional functionality of utilizing two sets of medical images instead of one. By providing information from multiple datasets, the user can locate and visualize anatomical structures using different imaging modalities.
The InstaTrak 3500 Plus System allows the user to view the medical images of the patient's anatomy in response to the mouse or the tracked surgical instrument. Alignment of the patient and medical images is accomplished through the registration process. In all types of surgery the goal is the same, to display to the surgeon based on the medical images, where the position of a tracked surgical tool is with regard to the patient's anatomy. With the additional capability of multiple dataset navigation, the surgeon can now view the position of the tracked instrument using two sets of medical images instead of one.
The Multiple Dataset Navigation will provide the user with the ability to co-reqister (fuse) images from multiple datasets such as CT and MR. Using the existing InstaTrak 3500 Plus System software, the user will register one of the datasets, referred to as the Reference Dataset, to the patient. Navigation is then possible on the fused images, with secondary (registered) dataset(s) acting as a visualization enhancement for both surgical planning and intra-operative quidance. The sensors and instruments used for navigation are identical to those utilized by the existing InstaTrak system. Navigation will be disabled until the datasets have been successfully co-registered.
Patient registration is the process by which the coordinate systems of the medical images and the pointing instrument are aligned. This is performed on the primary (reference) dataset. Both the method of registration on the primary (reference) dataset and the resulting accuracy are identical to that described in K983529.

§ 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)

The current system provides displays for a single set of medical images. The Multiple Dataset Navigation option will provide displays for multiple sets of medical images. The addition of the Multiple Dataset Navigation operating mode does not change any of the major components of the InstaTrak System. There are no new receivers, transmitters, or instrument attachment configurations associated with this operational mode. Addition of the Multiple Dataset Navigation mode is a software change only.
7. SUBSTANTIAL EQUIVALENCE
The GE Medical Systems Navigation and Visualization Multiple Dataset Navigation option on the InstaTrak system is substantially equivalent to the Image Composer application on the Vectorvision iPlan (K020631), manufactured by BrainLAB, and the StealthStation (K954276) with StealthMerge application, manufactured by Medtronic. Each predicate device also offers the capability to fuse multiple data sets from different imaging modalities. The GE Medical Systems Multiple Dataset Navigation application has the same intended use and utilizes images from the same modalities as the predicate devices. There are no new questions of safety and effectiveness when compared to the predicate devices. The technological platform (InstaTrak, K983529) is unchanged, using the same electromagnetic position sensing and registration process as described in K983529, Except for the Multiple Dataset Navigation function, the InstaTrak system specifications and operating parameters will remain unchanged.
8. CONCLUSION
Based on the above discussion, GE Medical Systems Visualization and Navigation believes that the Multiple Dataset Navigation module is substantially equivalent to the predicate devices.
