The summary describes automated processing but does not mention AI, ML, or related terms, nor does it provide details about training or test sets typically associated with AI/ML development.
No
The device is described as software that displays and quantifies cardiac function parameters from SPECT studies, which is an imaging and analysis tool, not a device that directly treats or prevents disease.
Yes
The device clearly states its purpose is for "quantification of left and right ventricular function parameters" and mentions key metrics like "ejection fraction, end-diastolic volume, end-systolic volume," which are used by physicians for clinical assessment and diagnosis.
Yes
The device description explicitly states it is a "software program" that runs within an operating system environment on existing computer systems. It processes data from a medical imaging modality but does not include any hardware components 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 BP-SPECT™ software program processes and analyzes imaging data (gated Tc99m blood pool SPECT studies) to quantify parameters of the heart's function. It does not analyze biological samples taken from the patient.
Therefore, while it is a medical device used in the diagnosis and assessment of a patient's condition, it falls under the category of medical imaging software rather than an in vitro diagnostic device.
N/A
Intended Use / Indications for Use
The BP-SPECT™ software program should be used for the display of wall motion and quantification of left and right ventricular function parameters from gated Tc99m blood pool SPECT studies.
The intended use of this program was to provide the physician with a program which would allow him to display wall motion and determine measurements of ejection and ventricular volumes from his patient's gated blood pool SPECT study. This program serves merely as a display and processing program to aid in the diagnostic interpretation of a patient's study. It was not meant to replace or eliminate the standard visual analysis of the gated blood pool SPECT study.

Device Description
The BP-SPECT™ is used to display gated wall motion and for quantifying parameters of left and right ventricular from gated blood pool SPECT studies. These parameters are: ejection fraction, end-diastolic volume, end-systolic volume, stroke volume, maximum and average emptying and filling rates, ejection and filling periods and times, and regional ejection fraction. This program was developed to run in the IDL operating system environment which can be executed on any nuclear medicine computer systems which supports the IDL software development. The program processes the studies automatically, however, user verification of output is required and manual processing capability is provided.

2. Medical Device:
The BP-SPECT™ software program should be used for the display of wall motion and quantification of left and right ventricular function parameters from gated Tc99m blood pool SPECT studies.
3. Medical Device Equivalence:
Northwestern Gated Blood Pool SPECT (NUMUGAS™) Ref. 510(k) #: K020300
4. Device Description:
The BP-SPECT™ is used to display gated wall motion and for quantifying parameters of left and right ventricular from gated blood pool SPECT studies. These parameters are: ejection fraction, end-diastolic volume, end-systolic volume, stroke volume, maximum and average emptying and filling rates, ejection and filling periods and times, and regional ejection fraction. This program was developed to run in the IDL operating system environment which can be executed on any nuclear medicine computer systems which supports the IDL software development. The program processes the studies automatically, however, user verification of output is required and manual processing capability is provided.
5. Intended Use and Potential Adverse Effect on Health:
The intended use of this program was to provide the physician with a program which would allow him to display wall motion and determine measurements of ejection and ventricular volumes from his patient's gated blood pool SPECT study. This program serves merely as a display and processing program to aid in the diagnostic interpretation of a
1
patient's study. It was not meant to replace or eliminate the standard visual analysis of the gated blood pool SPECT study. The physician should integrate all of the patients' clinical and diagnostic information, i.e. patients' history, stress and/or rest EKG, quality control images, visual interpretation of the gated tomographic images, and quantitative results, prior to making his final interpretation. This comprehensive processing technique (as with all diagnostic imaging) is not perfect, and will be associated with some false positive and false negative results. The expected accuracy of the program can be found in Item H. Testing & Validation and the physician should be aware of the accuracy when integrating the quantitative results for his final interpretation. Therefore, this program has no direct adverse effect on health since the results represent only a part of the information, which the physician will utilize for his final interpretation. - The final responsibility for interpretation of the study lies with the physician.
6. Marketing History:
There have been several medical device programs marketed in the past which perform similar functions to those performed by the BP-SPECT™ program. Every Nuclear Medicine manufacturer has programs that can calculate planar gated blood pool and several of them have programs for determining similar quantitative parameters of ejection fraction, end-diastolic volume, end-systolic volume, maximum and average emptying and filling rates, ejection and filling periods and times, and regional ejection fraction. BP-SPECT™ provides a program which executes in the IDL operating system environment and we believe is substantially equivalent to the Northwestern Gated Blood Pool SPECT (NUMUGAS™) program. To our knowledge there have been no safety problems with the calculation of functional parameters from SPECT myocardial perfusion studies for the Northwestern Gated Blood Pool SPECT (NUMUGAS™) program which has been used in clinical settings for over three years.
7. Conclusions:
The safety of this program has been determined through the various stages of software development which included the initial design, coding, debugging, testing, and validation. The effectiveness of the program has been established in in-house testing and clinical validation studies. Specific details and results concerning the validation of the . BP-SPECT™ program are listed in Item H, Testing & Validation. We contend that the method employed for the development and the final in-house validation results of this medical display software program, . BP-SPECT™ program, have proven its safety and effectiveness. In our opinion the . BP-SPECT™ program is substantially equivalent to the Northwestern Gated Blood Pool SPECT™ program which has been cleared for marketing. The . BP-SPECT™ program is intended for the same purpose and raises no new issues of safety or effectiveness.
