Intended Use
CardIQ Fusion is intended to provide an optimized non-invasive application to analyze vascular anatomy and pathology, aid in the assessment of functional data e.g. PET perfusion, and aid in tailoring treatment plans based on the fused anatomical and functional information. Anatomical data could be from a set of Computed Tomography (CT) Angiographic images while functional data could be from PET, SPECT, or processed CT data.
Device Description
CardIQ Fusion is a post processing analysis software package designed to assist Radiologists, Nuclear Medicine Doctors, Cardiologists, and other clinicians in the evaluation and assessment of heart including its coronary vasculature and perfusion conditions. CardIQ Fusion is a software post-processing package for the Advantage Workstation (AW) platform, PET/CT and CT scanners and PACS reading stations. It is an additional tool for the analysis of 3D CT angiographic cardiac images/data providing a number of display, measurements and batch filming/archive features to study user-selected vessels. Also included is the capability to visualize reformatted CT/PET/SPECT perfusion and viability data. Finally, it provides different ways of visualizing CT anatomy fused with PET/SPECT functional information.
More Information

Not Found

No
The summary describes image processing and fusion software, but does not mention AI, ML, or related concepts like deep learning or neural networks.

No.
The device is a software post-processing package that analyzes medical images to aid in diagnosis and treatment planning, but it does not directly apply or provide therapy.

Yes

Explanation: The device is intended to "analyze vascular anatomy and pathology," "aid in the assessment of functional data," and "aid in tailoring treatment plans." It provides tools for "sizing the vessel, analyzing calcified and non-calcified plaque to determine the densities of plaque within a vessel, measure areas of abnormalities within a vessel (like stenosis, plaque)." These functions are indicative of a diagnostic purpose.

Yes

The device is described explicitly as a "software post-processing package" and an "additional tool for the analysis" of existing imaging data. It does not include or require any specific hardware components beyond the platforms it runs on (AW platform, PET/CT and CT scanners, PACS reading stations), which are themselves medical devices that generate the input data. The function is purely analytical and visualization based on pre-existing images.

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

Here's why:

  • IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostics are medical devices used to perform tests on samples taken from the human body, such as blood, urine, or tissue, to detect diseases, conditions, or infections. They are used outside of the body (in vitro) to analyze these samples.
  • CardIQ Fusion's Function: CardIQ Fusion is a software post-processing package that analyzes medical images (CT, PET, SPECT) of the heart and its vasculature. It does not analyze biological samples taken from the patient. Its purpose is to visualize, measure, and fuse existing imaging data to aid clinicians in diagnosis and treatment planning.

Therefore, CardIQ Fusion falls under the category of medical imaging software or a medical image analysis device, not an In Vitro Diagnostic device.

Also included is the capability to visualize reformatted CT/PET/SPECT perfusion and viability data. Finally, it provides different ways of visualizing CT anatomy fused with PET/SPECT functional information.

With CardIQ Fusion, clinicians have the opportunity to overlay functional information over the (CT) anatomy of a patient's heart, and thus, they can potentially tailor their decision for that particular patient. CardIQ Fusion provides the visualization of the vessels in several different formats including 3D rendering, curved reformats. Once vessels are visualized, tools are available for sizing the vessel, analyzing calcified and non-calcified plaque to determine the densities of plaque within a vessel, measure areas of abnormalities within a vessel (like stenosis, plaque).

Functional data could come from PET, SPECT, or processed CT data for perfusion information. The functional and anatomical data could come from the same scanner as in the case of PET/CT scanner; or they could come from separate scanners like stand alone NUC camera and stand alone CT scanner.
