Intended Use
The WorkstationOne™ Breast Imaging Workstation is intended for use with a regionally approved digital mammography system. The workstation displays images from multiple modalities, which include X-ray mammography MG, breast US and breast MRI. The workstation allows selection, display, manipulation, quantification, markup, print composition and media exchange of breast images. Here, quantification refers to measurements (such as area and distance) within a region of interest that the radiologist manually draws on the images. Similarly, markup refers to graphics that are manually drawn by the radiologist to indicate a region of interest. Note that the region of interest is not automatically generated by the computer. The WorkstationOne™ Breast Imaging Workstation is intended for softcopy reading and interpretation of digital mammography images by Radiologists. The WorkstationOne™ Breast Imaging Workstation when used for interpretation of images acquired using a FFDM image acquisition system shall display the images only on FDA-cleared high-resolution monitors. The images used for primary diagnostic reading must be in a lossless format, unless lossy formats are approved for use in digital mammography.
Device Description
The WorkstationOne™ is a diagnostic breast imaging workstation which consists of a software system that obtains breast imaging screening or diagnosis exams from PACS or Modalities; displays and manipulates the images for radiologists to perform interpretation task. The workstation also supports media exchange and film printing. Optionally, the workstation can interface with a reporting system to generate an interpretation report. The enterprise workflow of the workstation follows IHE integration profiles, specifically, MAMMO (Mammography Image Profile) and RWP (Reporting Workflow Profile). The workstation can be configured to use mammographic specific hanging protocol and reading workflow. The workstation obtains the source images and CAD reports either as the recipient of the push of that data, or by querying and retrieving them from a PACS archive. In both models, DICOM is used. The images can only be the lossless compressed or non-compressed DICOM images. The WorkstationOne™ is a software system that can be installed on an off-the-shelf general-purpose computer with one or two aray-scale high-resolution monitors and one color monitor. The high-resolution monitors are used to display digital mammography images and associated overlays for the purpose of primary interpretation by radiologists. The color monitor is used for selecting studies, displaying color images, navigating workflow, and other user interface elements. Optionally, a dedicated keypad or touchpad is included for ergonomic reasons.
More Information

Not Found

No
The description explicitly states that the region of interest is not automatically generated by the computer, and the quantification and markup are manually performed by the radiologist. There are no mentions of AI, ML, or related terms, nor any descriptions of training or test sets typically associated with AI/ML development.

No.
The device is a workstation for displaying and manipulating diagnostic breast images for radiologists to interpret, and does not provide therapy.

Yes

The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" section states: "The WorkstationOne™ Breast Imaging Workstation is intended for softcopy reading and interpretation of digital mammography images by Radiologists." Interpretation of medical images for diagnostic purposes is a core function of a diagnostic device. Furthermore, the "Device Description" explicitly calls it "a diagnostic breast imaging workstation."

Yes

The device description explicitly states "The WorkstationOne™ is a software system that can be installed on an off-the-shelf general-purpose computer". While it requires specific monitors and optionally a keypad/touchpad, these are described as components it interfaces with or is installed upon, not integral parts of the device itself as a medical device. The core functionality and the device being cleared is the software.

Based on the provided information, the WorkstationOne™ Breast Imaging Workstation is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic) device.

Here's why:

  • IVD devices are used to examine specimens derived from the human body. The WorkstationOne™ is used to display and manipulate medical images (X-ray mammography, breast US, breast MRI) acquired from the patient's body, not to analyze biological samples.
  • The intended use is for softcopy reading and interpretation of digital mammography images by Radiologists. This is a diagnostic imaging workflow, not an in vitro diagnostic test.
  • The device description focuses on image display, manipulation, and workflow integration. These are functions related to medical imaging interpretation, not laboratory testing.
  • The listed product code (21 CFR 892.2050 Product Code LLZ) is for "System, Image Processing, Radiological". This classification clearly places the device within the realm of medical imaging, not in vitro diagnostics.

In summary, the WorkstationOne™ is a medical imaging workstation used for the interpretation of breast images, which is distinct from the function of an in vitro diagnostic device.

§ 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. Zhang:

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 (PMA), 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.
