Not Found

No
The document describes standard image processing and measurement tools for orthopedic planning, with no mention of AI, ML, or related concepts.

No.
The device is intended to aid in diagnosis, plan surgical procedures, and monitor patient progress by processing and reviewing medical images, not to directly treat or cure a disease or condition.

Yes

The product description states that the software is "intended for use by physicians to aid in diagnosis" and allows "assessments to be made of geometrical skeletal parameters with comparisons against normative references... in order to draw therapeutic conclusions," which clearly indicates a diagnostic purpose.

Yes

The device is described as "Agfa's Orthopedic Software" and its function is entirely based on processing and displaying medical images and patient information. While it is used with Impax® Workstations, the description focuses solely on the software's capabilities and does not mention any specific hardware components included as part of the device itself.

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

Here's why:

  • IVD devices are used to examine specimens derived from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue) to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening. The description of Agfa's Orthopedic Software clearly states its purpose is for the acquisition, display, processing, review, and management of medical images and patient demographic information.
  • The intended use is focused on aiding diagnosis and planning surgical procedures based on imaging data. It does not involve the analysis of biological samples.
  • The device description and performance studies focus on the software's functionality with medical images and compatibility with imaging systems. There is no mention of handling or analyzing biological specimens.

Therefore, Agfa's Orthopedic Software falls under the category of medical imaging software, not an In Vitro Diagnostic device.
