Intended Use
VERICIS is a system intended to be used to acquire, store, print, transfer, and archive clinical information from Camtronics and other vendors systems including images, Hemodynamic studies and reports, measurements (via import from DICOM Structured Reporting, text files or optical character recognition of measurements captured on images) and cardiology signal (waveform) data. VERICIS is intended to allow users to review diagnostic and non-diagnostic quality images, annotate studies, perform digital subtraction on images, to perform quantitative measurements on images (including but not limited to quantitative coronary analysis, left ventricular analysis, time, area, length, velocity, angle, volume, and velocity-time integrals), to generate physician-generated clinical reports (via structure reporting and template based tools), and to store this information in a database. · VERICIS is software comprised of modules that perform under standard "offthe-shelf" personal computers and servers running the Microsoft Windows 2000/2003/XP operating systems. • VERICIS is image data storage and display software that accepts DICOM (Digital Imaging and Communications in Medicine) image data files from multiple modalities. It accepts text data using other standards-based formats including but not limited to HL7 and XML. • VERICIS is an Internet/Intranet network system that is designed for small and large, multi-user environments. The VERICIS network structure (including server and workstations) provides for the system's database management, storage, printing, and all DICOM/HL-7 interface services.
Device Description
The VERICIS is an integrated cardiovascular information system classified as a picture archiving and communications system. The VERICIS is a modification of the Camtronics Analytical Review Station (K955519) and the Echocardiography System (K992259) to accept multiple modalities. The VERICIS combines modular software applications and third party "off-the-shell" software on standard computer workstations and servers running the specified Microsoft Windows operating systems.
More Information

No
The description focuses on standard image archiving, review, measurement, and reporting functionalities without mentioning AI or ML algorithms.

No.
The device is described as an integrated cardiovascular information system and a picture archiving and communications system, focused on acquiring, storing, processing, and displaying clinical information and images. It does not exert any direct therapeutic action on a patient.

No

Explanation: The device is described as a system for acquiring, storing, printing, transferring, and archiving clinical information, including images and hemodynamic studies. It allows users to review, annotate, perform measurements, and generate reports. While it processes diagnostic-quality images and assists in report generation, it does not explicitly state that it performs diagnosis itself. It primarily functions as an information management and review system rather than an automated diagnostic tool.

Yes

The device is described as "software comprised of modules that perform under standard 'off-the-shelf' personal computers and servers" and "combines modular software applications and third party 'off-the-shell' software on standard computer workstations and servers". While it requires standard computer hardware to run, the medical device itself is the software.

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

Here's why:

  • IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostics are devices intended for use in the examination of specimens derived from the human body in order to provide information for diagnostic purposes. This typically involves analyzing biological samples like blood, urine, tissue, etc.
  • VERICIS Function: The description of VERICIS clearly states its purpose is to acquire, store, process, and display clinical information, primarily images and related data, from various medical imaging modalities. It focuses on managing and analyzing data already generated by other diagnostic devices.
  • Lack of Biological Sample Analysis: There is no mention of VERICIS interacting with or analyzing biological specimens. Its inputs are digital data from imaging systems and other clinical information systems.

Therefore, VERICIS falls under the category of a medical imaging information system or PACS (Picture Archiving and Communications System), not an In Vitro Diagnostic device.

§ 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)
