Intended Use
syngo Circulation is a self-contained image analysis software package for evaluating cardiac and pulmonary CTA, PET and SPECT volume data sets. syngo Circulation combines commercially available digital image processing and visualization tools (MIP thin/thick, MPR thin/thick, vessel aligned MPR, CPR, VRT, AngioView, hybrid visualization), evaluation tools (myocardial and volumetric analysis of the left ventricle, coronary tree segmentation, stenosis and plaque evaluation) and reporting tools (lesion and pulmonary embolism (PE) location and characteristics) with a workflow including dedicated scanning protocols. The software package is designed to support the physician in confirming the presence of physician identified coronary lesions, in evaluation of the hearts functional parameters and/or in confirming the presence or absence of physician identified filling defects, e.g. emboli, in the pulmonary arteries in addition to documentation and follow-up of any lesions.

More Information

Not Found

No
The summary describes standard image processing and analysis techniques, and there is no mention of AI, ML, or related concepts like training or test sets.

No
The device is described as image analysis software for evaluating diagnostic data (CTA, PET, SPECT) to assist physicians in confirming the presence or absence of lesions and functional parameters, which is a diagnostic function, not a therapeutic one.

Yes

The 'Intended Use / Indications for Use' section explicitly states that the software is designed to "support the physician in confirming the presence of physician identified coronary lesions, in evaluation of the hearts functional parameters and/or in confirming the presence or absence of physician identified filling defects, e.g. emboli, in the pulmonary arteries". This process of confirming presence or absence of lesions, evaluating functional parameters, and identifying filling defects is diagnostic in nature.

Yes

The device is explicitly described as a "self-contained image analysis software package" and its functions are solely related to processing, analyzing, and visualizing existing image data. There is no mention of any associated hardware components 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 tests performed on samples taken from the human body, such as blood, urine, or tissue, to detect diseases, conditions, or infections.
  • syngo Circulation's Function: syngo Circulation is described as an image analysis software package that processes and visualizes medical images (CTA, PET, SPECT) of the heart and lungs. It helps physicians evaluate anatomical structures, identify lesions, and assess functional parameters.
  • Lack of Biological Sample Analysis: The description does not mention any analysis of biological samples. The input is imaging data, not biological specimens.

Therefore, syngo Circulation falls under the category of medical image analysis software, not in vitro diagnostics.

Dear Mr. Preiss:

We have reviewed your Section 510(k) premarket notification of intent to market the device referenced above and have determined the device is substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to legally marketed predicate devices marketed in interstate commerce prior to May 28, 1976, the enactment date of the Medical Device Amendments, or to devices that have been reclassified in accordance with the provisions of the Federal Food, Drue, and Cosmetic Act (Act) that do not require approval of a premarket approval application (PMA). You may, therefore, market the device, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act, T o on may controls provisions of the Act include requirements for annual registration, listing of devices, good manufacturing practice, labeling, and prohibitions against misbranding and adulteration.

If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (Premarket Approval), it may be subject to such additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 898. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register.

Image /page/2/Picture/10 description: The image is a black and white circular logo. The logo has the letters "FDA" in a bold, stylized font in the center. Above the letters, there is the text "1906-2006". Below the letters, there is the word "Centennial" in a cursive font. There are three stars below the word "Centennial". The logo is surrounded by a dotted border.

Please be advised that FDA's issuance of a substantial equivalence determination does not mean that FDA has made a determination that your device complies with other requirements of the Act or any Federal statutes and regulations administered by other Federal agencies. You must comply with all the Act's requirements, including, but not limited to: registration and listing (21 CFR Part 807); labeling (21 CFR Part 801); good manufacturing practice requirements as set forth in the quality systems (QS) regulation (21 CFR Part 820); and if applicable, the electronic product radiation control provisions (Sections 531-542 of the Act); 21 CFR 1000-1050.

This letter will allow you to begin marketing your device as described in your Section 510(k) premarket notification. The FDA finding of substantial equivalence of your device to a legally marketed predicate device results in a classification for your device and thus, permits your device to proceed to the market.

If you desire specific advice for your device on our labeling regulation (21 CFR Part 801), please contact the Office of Compliance at one of the following numbers, based on the regulation number at the top of this letter:

21 CFR 876.xxx(Gastroenterology/Renal/Urology)240-276-0115
