Intended Use
Detect the contour of the coronary vessel from a set of angiographic X-ray images – Generate absolute measurements about the dimensions of the coronary arterial segment in 3D space to improve accuracy by elimination of out-of-plane and foreshortening errors.
Device Description
The CAAS OCA 3D is one of the software modules intended to run on the Cardiovascular Angiography Analysis System mark. CAAS. It functions in the same manner as other vascular analysis software packages. The OCA-3D module allows accurate and reproducible quantification of the coronary arteries from a set of angiographic X-ray images. The analyst selects between 2 and 5 angiographic images obtained from different X-Ray projections. On each of the images a classic 2D arterial detection is performed, after which from all images a reconstruction of the arterial segment is obtained in 3D space. Indication of a common point in each of the images is used to obtain an exact spatial relationship between the images. After the selection of the arterial segment of interest the contour of this arterial segment is automatically detected. Based on the contour information a number of analysis results can be calculated. Three analysis methods are available: The first method is an automatic reconstruction of the diseased arterial vessel by means of computing the reference along the arterial vessel to reconstruct the healthy arterial vessel, calculation of main result the % of stenosis. The second method allows for manual definition of the reference along the arterial segment by means of selecting one or more reference positions in the arterial segment, calculation of main result the % of stenosis. The third analysis method enables the user to define one or more subsegments, within each user defined subsegment the minimum, maximum and mean area are calculated. Besides area information also diameter results for each image used to reconstruct the vessel into 3D space are calculated over the arterial positions of interest. These diameter results will be corrected for out of plane calibration and length measurements will be corrected for foreshortening errors.
More Information

Unknown
The description mentions "automatic detection" of the arterial contour and "automatic reconstruction" of the vessel, which could potentially involve AI/ML techniques for image analysis and reconstruction. However, the document does not explicitly state the use of AI, ML, or related terms like neural networks or deep learning. Without further information or explicit mention, it's impossible to definitively confirm the presence of AI/ML.

No.
The device is described as a software module that quantifies coronary arteries from angiographic X-ray images, providing measurements and analysis of stenosis, which are diagnostic functions, not therapeutic.

Yes

The device detects the contour of coronary vessels from angiographic X-ray images and generates absolute measurements and calculations (e.g., % of stenosis, area, and diameter) related to the dimensions of the coronary arterial segment in 3D space. These functions provide quantitative information about the patient's anatomy to aid in diagnosis or treatment planning.

Yes

The device description explicitly states it is a "software module intended to run on the Cardiovascular Angiography Analysis System mark. CAAS." It describes software functions for image analysis and measurement, without mentioning any accompanying hardware components that are 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 tests performed on samples taken from the human body, such as blood, urine, or tissue, to detect diseases, conditions, or infections.
  • Device Function: The CAAS OCA 3D software analyzes angiographic X-ray images of the coronary arteries. It processes images and performs measurements based on these images.
  • No Biological Samples: The device does not interact with or analyze any biological samples taken from the patient. Its input is image data.

Therefore, since the device operates on medical images and not biological samples, it falls outside the definition of an In Vitro Diagnostic device. It is a medical image analysis software.

N/A

Intended Use / Indications for Use

The intended use of the CAAS OCA 3D is:

  • 1 . Optimizing the quantification of artery dimensions to be used in clinical trials and in clinical cath lab environment
    1. Management of data resulting of the quantitative analysis

Indications For Use: Detect the contour of the coronary vessel from a set of angiographic X-ray images – Generate absolute measurements about the dimensions of the coronary arterial segment in 3D space to improve accuracy by elimination of out-of-plane and foreshortening errors.

§ 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)
