syngo InSpace 4D - Software Package is a self-contained image analysis software package. This real-time interactive evaluation in space and time for CT volume data sets provides the reconstruction of two-dimensional images into a three-dimensional image format. InSpace 4D can be used to assist the physician in the diagnosis of blood vessels on the basis of a CT Angiography dataset (CTA). For a CTA examination a contrast media (CM) is administered into the patient's blood vessels to enhance the contrast of the vessels in the CTA dataset, i.e. high values for the Hounsfield Unit (HU). The goal is to visualize the blood vessels without other interfering anatomical structures. The syngo InSpace 4D is developed to facilitate a precise diagnosis by removing bone structures from a CTA data set. It can be used in the same way for Non CTA datasets to remove bones or extract and display selected bones, e.g. for the analysis of a fracture. Further, syngo InSpace 4D can be used to support the physician in the diagnosis and documentation of chest diseases, e.g. when examining the pulmonary tissue (i.e. lung parenchyma) in CT thoracic datasets. Evaluation tools (3D segmentation & isolation of subcompartments, volumetric analysis, density evaluations, low density cluster analysis) and reporting tools are combined with a dedicated workflow.

More Information

No
The summary describes standard image processing and analysis techniques for CT data, such as 3D reconstruction, bone removal, segmentation, and volumetric analysis. There is no mention of AI, ML, training data, or performance metrics typically associated with AI/ML devices.

No
The device is described as an image analysis software package used to assist physicians in diagnosis and documentation, not for treating or preventing diseases.

Yes
The device is described multiple times as being used to "assist the physician in the diagnosis" and "facilitate a precise diagnosis" for various conditions, including blood vessels, fractures, and chest diseases.

Yes

The device is explicitly described as a "Software Package" and "self-contained image analysis software package" that processes existing CT data. There is no mention of accompanying hardware or hardware components being part of the device itself.

Based on the provided text, 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 syngo InSpace 4D software processes medical images (CT volume data sets, CTA datasets, Non CTA datasets, CT thoracic datasets) to assist physicians in diagnosis. It does not analyze biological samples.

The device is clearly focused on image analysis and visualization for diagnostic purposes based on imaging data, not on in vitro testing of biological specimens.

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, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (Act) that do not require approval of a premarket approval application (PMA). You max. 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 shows a circular logo with the text "1906-2006" at the top and "Centennial" at the bottom. The letters "FDA" are prominently displayed in the center of the logo. There are three stars below the word "Centennial". The logo appears to be a commemorative emblem for the centennial of the Food and Drug Administration.
