Intended Use
The Siemens SOMATOM P47 system is intended to produce cross-sectional images of the body by computer reconstruction of x-ray transmission data from either the same axial plane taken at different angles or spiral planes* taken at different angles. In addition the SOMATOM P47 is able to produce additional image planes and analysis results by executing optional postprocessing features, which operate on DICOM images. The images and results delivered by the system can be used by a trained physician as an aid in diagnosis. (*spiral planes: the axial planes resulting from the continuous rotation of detectors and xray tube, and the simultaneous translation of the patient.)
Device Description
The Siemens SOMATOM P47 is a Computed Tomography X- ray System, which features two continuously rotating tube-detector systems and functions according to the fan beam principle. The system software is a command-based program used for patient management, data management, X-ray scan control, image reconstruction, and image archive/evaluation. The SOMATOM P47 system produces CT images in DICOM format, which can be used by postprocessing applications commercially distributed by Siemens and other vendors. The computer system delivered with the CT scanner is able to run such post processing applications optionally.
More Information

No
The document describes standard CT imaging and postprocessing features, with no mention of AI, ML, or related concepts.

No
The device produces cross-sectional images for diagnostic aid, not for treating or managing a disease or condition.

Yes

The text explicitly states, "The images and results delivered by the system can be used by a trained physician as an aid in diagnosis." This indicates its role in the diagnostic process.

No

The device is described as a Computed Tomography X-ray System, which is a hardware device that produces images. While it includes software for control and postprocessing, it is fundamentally a hardware system.

Based on the provided information, the Siemens SOMATOM P47 system 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.
  • SOMATOM P47 function: The SOMATOM P47 is a Computed Tomography (CT) X-ray system. It produces images of the body by using X-rays and computer reconstruction. This is an in vivo imaging technique, meaning it is performed on a living organism, not on samples taken from the body.
  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly states that the system is "intended to produce cross-sectional images of the body" and that these images and results "can be used by a trained physician as an aid in diagnosis." This describes an imaging device used for diagnostic purposes, not an in vitro test.

Therefore, the SOMATOM P47 falls under the category of medical imaging devices, not in vitro diagnostics.
