Intended Use
Cardius-1, Cardius-2, Cardius-3: The Cardius product models are intended for use in the generation of cardiac studies, including planar and Single Photon Emission Computed Tomography (SPECT) studies, in nuclear medicine applications. 2020tc SPECT Imaging System: The Digirad 2020tc SPECT Imaging system is intended for use in the generation of both planar and Single Photon Emission Computed Tomography (SPECT) clinical images in nuclear medicine applications. The Digirad SPECT Rotating Chair is used in conjunction with the Digirad 2020tc Imager™ to obtain SPECT images in patients who are seated in an upright position. Specifically, the 2020te Imager™ is intended to image the distribution of radionuctides in the body by means of a photon radiation detector. In so doing, the system produces images depicting the anatomical distribution of radioisotopes within the human body for interpretation by authorized medical personnel.
Device Description
The changes to the Digirad 2020tc and Cardius SPECT imaging cameras involve addition of an Image Stabilization System. The proposed Image Stabilization System is used to correct image studies for patient motion in SPECT data acquired with Digirad Nuclear medicine gamma camera systems. The Image Stabilization System consists of two parts: a Hardware component that mounts to the SPECT Imaging System, and a software module that collects data from the hardware and corrects the image data for motion. The resulting motion corrected patient study data is referred to as the Image Stabilized Patient Study. The Image Stabilization system may operate only with the above described Digirad Camera models and is compatible with proprietary Digitad Acquisition Software under the Windows Operating system and standard PC architecture. The proposed Image Stabilization System performs substantially the same function as the currently cleared Cedar's Sinai Motion Correction Program (MoCo), cleared for use on Digirad SPECT Imaging Systems under Digirad 510(k) #K023110. The proposed Image Stabilization System automatically produces an Image Stabilized Patient Study, corrected for patient motion, which is available in the existing database. The original image study is produced in an identical manner as in the previously cleared devices. Both studies are stored in the same patient record in the database. Additional minor changes were made to the User Interface screen. The Image Stabilized Patient Studies produced by the proposed device are identical in file structure to the original, unmodified data set; therefore SeeQuanta 1.2 and the Image Stabilization System are fully compatible with the same database, reconstruction software, and processing software that is used with the "cleared" devices. Hence, there are no changes to these software modules. This proposed optional software addition will be available to Digirad customers both integrated with the Digirad 2020tc SPECT Imaging System, and Cardius-1, Cardius-2, and Cardius-3 SPECT Imaging Systems, and separately as a retrofit device for existing Digirad Product Customers.
More Information

No
The description focuses on a hardware and software system for motion correction, comparing it to a previously cleared motion correction program. There is no mention of AI, ML, or learning algorithms.

No.
The device is used to generate cardiac and SPECT studies for diagnosis and does not provide therapy or treatment.

Yes

The device generates "clinical images" and "produces images depicting the anatomical distribution of radioisotopes within the human body for interpretation by authorized medical personnel," which are used in "generating cardiac studies." This fits the definition of a diagnostic device.

No

The device description explicitly states that the Image Stabilization System consists of both a hardware component and a software module.

Based on the provided text, 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 described device is a SPECT imaging system and an associated image stabilization system. It works by detecting radiation emitted from radionuclides administered to the patient within their body. It produces images depicting the distribution of these radioisotopes in vivo.
  • Lack of Sample Analysis: The device does not analyze samples taken from the body. It directly images the distribution of a substance within the body.

Therefore, the device falls under the category of medical imaging devices, not In Vitro Diagnostics.

Description of the test set, sample size, data source, and annotation protocol

Testing was performed to analyze the content of corrected phantom studies using the Image Stabilization Accessory integrated with the Digirad Cardius-1 camera. Also extensive Verification testing was completed on all cleared Digirad SPECT Imaging Systems integrated with the Image Stabilization Device to demonstrate that the design outputs met the design inputs of the proposed Image Stabilization Accessory Device. Testing included comprehensive phantom image verification and validation studies with modified acquisition software. All software test results met pre-defined acceptance criteria.

Summary of Performance Studies (study type, sample size, AUC, MRMC, standalone performance, key results)

phantom image verification and validation studies. The quality of the phantom images corrected with the Image Stabilization System with the modified acquisition software was similar to the quality of the images post-processed corrected using the MoCo Motion Correction program.

ய் Intended Use

The intended uses of the Cardius and 2020tc cameras have not changed, and are summarized in the "Indications for Use" form included with this submission.

F. Cleared/Predicate Device

The proposed change is a modification to the following Digirad cleared devices:

(1) 2020tc SPECT Imaging System and the SPECTour Chair (SPECT Imaging System), cleared on November 9, 1998 under 510(k) #K982855; and

  • (2) Cardius-1 and Cardius-2 SPECT Imaging System cleared on February 5, 2003 under 510(k) #K030085.
  • (3) Cardius-1, Cardius-2, Cardius-3, and 2020tc SPECT Imaging Systems cleared on July 13, 2005 under 510(k) #K051549

The Image Stabilization System Accessory when integrated with the cleared 2020tc and Cardius Model Digirad SPECT Imaging Systems has the same function as the following predicate devices: the Motion Correction function module of Mirage software device (Segami Corporation, #K972886) and Digirad Cedars-Sinai Motion Correction (MoCo) Software Program device (#K023110), which is currently used on the Digirad 2020tc and Cardius models SPECT imaging Systems to carry out patient motion correction to the postprocessed data.

Additionally, the proposed Image Stabilization System also performs the same functions as the MoCo Motion Correction Software in the following predicate devices: Cedars-Sinai BPGS and MoCo cleared under K010509 for GE/SMV America, and QPS/BPGS/MoCo Processing Applications cleared under K003264 for ELGEMS Ltd.

Conclusions Drawn from Testing G.

Testing was performed to analyze the content of corrected phantom studies using the Image Stabilization Accessory integrated with the Digirad Cardius-1 camera. Also extensive Verification testing was completed on all cleared Digirad SPECT Imaging Systems integrated with the Image Stabilization Device to demonstrate that the design outputs met the design inputs of the proposed Image Stabilization Accessory Device. Testing included comprehensive phantom image verification and validation studies with modified acquisition software. All software test results met pre-defined acceptance criteria. The quality of the phantom images corrected with the Image Stabilization System with the modified acquisition software was similar to the quality of the images post-processed corrected using the MoCo Motion Correction program.
