Intended Use
The REGIUS Unitea software is intended for installation on an off-the-shelf PC meeting or exceeding minimum specifications. The REGIUS Unitea software primarily facilitates processing and presentation of medical images on display monitors suitable for the medical task being performed. The REGIUS Unitea software can process and display medical images from the following modality types: Plain X-ray Radiography, X-ray Computed Tomography, Magnetic Resonance imaging, Ultrasound, Nuclear Medicine and other DICOM compliant modalities. The REGIUS Unitea must not be used for primary image diagnosis in mammography.
Device Description
REGIUS Unitea is a software which is intended for installation on an off-the-shelf PC meeting or exceeding minimum specifications. REGIUS unitea software controls and manages the cassette type CR (Computed Radiography) such as REGIUS MODEL 170,190 and 110 that is connected via the network. REGIUS Unitea receives and displays images from other DICOM compliant modalities connected via the network and whole use digital media such as DVD/CD-R, DSC and USB memory cards connected as disk drives. REGIUS Unitea software has the following set of features. 1. Feature to automatically obtain patient demographic information (Name, Age, Sex, Date of Birth, etc) from Hospital Information Systems. 2. Feature to specify the reading condition (Sampling Sensitivity of the sensor and so on) of the connected CR device. 3. Receive and store image data from REGIUS MODEL 170, 190 and 100 CR, other DICOM compliant modalities and digital media (such as DVD/CD-R, DSC and USB memory cards). 4. Display image data received from the REGIUS MODEL 170, 190 and 100 CR, other DICOM compliant modalities and digital media (such as DVD/CD-R, DSC and USB memory cards). 5.

Not Found

No
The summary describes standard image processing and display features, with no mention of AI, ML, or related concepts.

No
The device is described as software for processing and presenting medical images and facilitating information flow, not for providing therapy or treatment.

No

The device is primarily for processing and displaying medical images, not for making a diagnosis itself. It explicitly states it "must not be used for primary image diagnosis in mammography."

Yes

The device is described as "software which is intended for installation on an off-the-shelf PC" and its functions are purely software-based (processing, displaying, receiving, storing, and applying image processing). While it interacts with hardware (CR devices, PCs, display monitors, digital media), the device itself is the software component.

Based on the provided information, the REGIUS Unitea software is not an In Vitro Diagnostic (IVD) device.

Here's why:

  • IVD Definition: IVD devices are used to examine specimens (like blood, urine, or tissue) taken from the human body to provide information about a person's health. This information is used for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening.
  • REGIUS Unitea's Function: The description clearly states that REGIUS Unitea is software that processes and displays medical images from various imaging modalities (X-ray, CT, MRI, Ultrasound, Nuclear Medicine). It also manages CR devices and receives images from digital media.
  • No Specimen Analysis: There is no mention of the software analyzing any biological specimens. Its function is centered around the manipulation and presentation of medical images.

Therefore, the REGIUS Unitea software falls under the category of medical imaging software, not an IVD.

§ 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 Mr. Munves:

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/9 description: The image is a circular logo for the FDA Centennial, celebrating 1906-2006. The letters "FDA" are prominently displayed in a bold, stylized font. Below the letters, the word "Centennial" is written in a cursive font. Three stars are arranged in a horizontal line beneath the word "Centennial".

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 (2) 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
