Intended Use
The Workspace is intended for use in conjunction with 3TP's proprietary post processing pharmacokinetic analysis software (FDA 510(k) number: K03150) to provide additional mathematical and/or statistical information specific to a particular region within a 3TP color-coded image. The Workspace does not change the original 3TP Software algorithm or the image series produced by the 3TP The Workspace supports the analysis and presentation of datasets algorithm. generated by 3TP Software algorithm and incorporates the following functions: Pixel of Interest curve (POI), Region of Interest curve (ROI), Report Card, Volume Calculation, 3TP Histogram, and 3-D visualization of 3TP data series.
Device Description
3TP Workspace is intended to be used as post processing software designed to receive 3TP specific series and provide additional tools to analyze those 3TP series. 3TP itself, supports the evaluation of dynamic MR data gathered during the injection of a bolus of contrast media. The resulting time course information can be displayed in a variety of formats, including a parametric image overlaid onto source MR images.
More Information

K03150

No
The description focuses on standard image processing, statistical analysis, and visualization tools, with no mention of AI or ML algorithms.

No
The device is described as post-processing software that provides additional information for diagnosis and streamlines workflow for radiologists. It does not directly treat or diagnose a disease.

Yes

The device aids radiologists in their diagnosis by providing mathematical and statistical information from medical images, helping them characterize lesions and streamline the diagnostic process.

Yes

The device is described as "post processing software designed to receive 3TP specific series and provide additional tools to analyze those 3TP series." It operates on data generated by another software (3TP Software algorithm) and provides analytical and visualization tools. There is no mention of any hardware component 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 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, treatment, or prevention of disease.
  • Device Function: The description clearly states that the device is "post processing software designed to receive 3TP specific series and provide additional tools to analyze those 3TP series." These 3TP series are generated from dynamic MR data, which is an in vivo imaging technique, not an in vitro specimen analysis.
  • Intended Use: The intended use focuses on analyzing and presenting data derived from MRI images to aid radiologists in diagnosis. This is consistent with medical image analysis software, not IVD testing.
  • Lack of Specimen Handling: There is no mention of the device handling or analyzing any biological specimens.

Therefore, while this device is a medical device used in the diagnostic process, it falls under the category of medical image processing software rather than an In Vitro Diagnostic device.

Intended Use / Indications for Use

The Workspace is intended for use in conjunction with 3TP's proprietary post processing pharmacokinetic analysis software (FDA 510(k) number: K03150) to provide additional mathematical and/or statistical information specific to a particular region within a 3TP color-coded image. The Workspace does not change the original 3TP Software algorithm or the image series produced by the 3TP The Workspace supports the analysis and presentation of datasets algorithm. generated by 3TP Software algorithm and incorporates the following functions: Pixel of Interest curve (POI), Region of Interest curve (ROI), Report Card, Volume Calculation, 3TP Histogram, and 3-D visualization of 3TP data series.

The POI and ROI curve functions provide contrast enhancement data for a specific pixel or region of interest within the MRI image series. Whereas the POI function measures signal intensity enhancement for a specific pixel, the ROI function averages the enhancement in signal intensity for a manually specified region (several pixels). In both cases, the Workspace presents a graph depicting the percent change in intensity through all time points.

The Report Card function classifies, counts and calculates the percentage of pixels of a given color and intensity in a single or in multiple slices for any manually specified region of interest. The Report Card offers the ability to evaluate a subset of the data originally generated by the 3TP algorithm in a numbers based, non-image presentation format. The Report Card assists the user by providing number based data of the contrast kinetics of a specified region identified by the radiologist in order to further aid in his diagnosis.

The Volume Calculation function allows the user to measure the volume of a region in multiple image slices specified by the radiologist.

The "3TP Histogram" is used to simultaneously display measurements of two physiological parameters found from a full pharmacokinetic analysis of the dynamic behavior of voxels in a chosen ROI. Each bin in the histogram shows the total number of voxels from the designated ROI with corresponding Permeability (PERM) and Extracellular Volume Fraction (EVF). Two solid lines on the histogram plot show the Blue/Green and Green/Red separations of the map: That is, voxels in the bins of red section are colored red on 3TP-color maps based on full analysis.

The Heterogeneity Analysis provides a standardized statistical analysis of the varrying populations of color hue and color intensity within a specified region or volume of interest. This function assists the radiologist in determining the degree of heterogeneity or homogeneity of a user specified region in terms of the color-coded pixels that are contained within. If the Full Analysis was performed, Heterogeneity Analysis may be performed also for Permeability and EVF of voxels within specified ROI.

The Workspace product serves as a workflow roadmap tool that organizes and guides the radiologist through the series of sequential tasks that must be performed in order to arrive at a diagnosis. The specific configuration of product features drives the Workspace's underlying workflow solution for lesion characterization and reporting. This inherent workflow regime integrates easily into the radiologist's existing departmental workflow and can be adapted to fit the needs of each user, thereby streamlining diagnosis.

The 3-D Visualization tool provides colored Maximum Intensity Projections (MIP) or other 3D visualization tools that are specific to the 3TP image datasets.
