Intended Use
InterWorks™ product is intended to provide a completely scalable PACS solution for hospitals and other related sites, which will distribute, retrieve archive, and display, data and images from a variety of different modality and information systems. This also includes the display of structured reports and mammography images that have been created according to DICOM "For Presentation", and will include standard features and other Mammo tools. Lossy compressed mammography images and digitized film screen images must not be used for primary image interpretations. Mammographic images may only be interpreted using an FDA approved monitor that offers at least 5 mega pixel resolution and meets other technical specifications approved by the FDA. Application areas include imaging centers, radiologist central reading rooms and any other locations where trained medical professionals would require access or desire patient images, demographic information or other patient medical information captured in the system.
Device Description
Inter Works™ is comprised of software modules that can work together to deliver an integrated solution that provides image capture, storage, distribution, enhancement, manipulation, and networking of medical images at distributed locations. The Image Management module that manages your imaging needs for a Radiology Enterprise. All of the different facets are unified under a single system that acquires, storages, displays and prints medical images. By interVIEW supporting DICOM 3.0 it can Plug-n-Play with other DICOM 3.0 compliant devices with minimal effort. For Practices that are in need of only Tele-Radiology functionality interVIEW TR will meet all the needs. The Dictation/Transcription module that provides for reliable creation of Radiology reports for your Radiology Enterprise. Reports are created via Voice Recognition with interSCRIBE VR or Digital Dictation with interSCRIBE DD depending upon the individual preferences of the Radiologist and requirements of the Radiology Enterprise. In either case digital files are created by the Radiologist and sent to transcription worklists for transcribing or editing by transcriptionists using interSCRIBE DT. Once the report has been finalized it is electronically signed by the Radiologist and automatically delivered via fax and/or e-mail to referring physicians. The Radiology Information System module manages your radiology workflow for your Front Desk, Back Office and Clinical operations. All of the different areas of operations are unified under a single system that extends beyond the physical walls to exchange information and perform transactions with important business partners. Most importantly, the rules engine that drives interFLOW can be tailored.
More Information

Not Found

No
The description focuses on standard PACS functionalities, image management, dictation/transcription, and workflow management. There is no mention of AI or ML algorithms for image analysis, diagnosis, or other advanced functions. The "rules engine" in the RIS module is likely a traditional, deterministic system, not an ML model.

No
The device is a PACS solution for managing and displaying medical images and information, not for treating or diagnosing conditions directly.

No
The device is a PACS (Picture Archiving and Communication System) that manages and displays medical images and data, and includes modules for image management, dictation/transcription, and radiology information systems. It supports the workflow around diagnostic images and reports but does not perform diagnostic functions itself; instead, it is used by trained medical professionals for interpretation.

Yes

The device description explicitly states it is comprised of "software modules" and describes functionalities related to image management, dictation/transcription, and radiology information systems, all of which are software-based processes. While it interacts with hardware (modalities, monitors), the device itself is presented as a software solution.

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 (like blood, urine, tissue) to provide information about a person's health.
  • Device Function: The description clearly states that the InterWorks™ product is a PACS (Picture Archiving and Communication System) solution. Its primary functions are to distribute, retrieve, archive, and display medical images and related data from various imaging modalities. It also includes features for reporting and workflow management.
  • Lack of Biological Sample Analysis: There is no mention of the device analyzing biological samples or performing any tests on them. Its focus is on managing and displaying medical images.

Therefore, the InterWorks™ product falls under the category of medical imaging software and systems, not In Vitro Diagnostics.

§ 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)

Dear Ms. Butcher:

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, Drug, 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. The general 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/3/Picture/10 description: The image shows a circular logo with the text "1806-1906" at the top. The letters "PA" are in the center of the logo, and the word "Centennial" is below the letters. There are three stars at the bottom of the logo. The logo appears to be a commemorative emblem for a centennial celebration.

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:
