Intended Use
Beyondlmage Workstation is a software application that is used for viewing medical images, BeyondImage Workstation receives digital images and data from various sources (including but not limited to CT, MR, US, RF units, computed and digital radiographic devices). Images are stored, communicated, processed and displayed on the local disc of a workstation and/or across computer networks at distributed locations. Tasks that users may perform when viewing images include, but are not limited to adjustment of window width and center; image stacking; annotation and measurement of regions of interest; and inversion, rotation, and flips of images. It also provides standard Multi-Planar Reformation (MPR) views and 3D views of Volume Rendering for digital images from CT, MR, and PET unit. In addition, using BeyondImage Workstation, users can edit and print report. Beyondlmage Workstation cannot display and process mammograms. Typical users of Beyondlmage Workstation are trained medical professionals, including but not limited to radiologists, clinicians, technologists, and others.
Device Description
Beyondlmage Workstation is a software application that provides image viewing and manipulation in a diagnostic imaging setting. The functions of this application are applied to medical images that are acquired and stored on an image server in DICOM format. Beyondlmage Workstation can also transfer images in DICOM 3.0 format over a medical imaging network, as well as exporting images to applications in other proprietary formats. BeyondImage Workstation cannot receive, display and process the images with non-DICOM3.0 format. Beyondlmage Workstation cannot display and process mammograms.

No
The summary describes standard image viewing and manipulation functions typical of a PACS workstation and does not mention any AI or ML capabilities.

No
The device is a software application for viewing and manipulating medical images for diagnostic purposes, not for treating any condition or ailment.

Yes.
The device description states "Beyondlmage Workstation is a software application that provides image viewing and manipulation in a diagnostic imaging setting." Additionally, its users are "trained medical professionals, including but not limited to radiologists, clinicians, technologists, and others," who would use it within a diagnostic workflow.

Yes

The device is explicitly described as a "software application" and its functions are applied to medical images. There is no mention of accompanying hardware that is part of the device itself.

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

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 BeyondImage Workstation's intended use is to view, process, and display medical images acquired from imaging modalities like CT, MR, US, etc. These are images of the body itself, not specimens taken from the body.
  • The description focuses on image manipulation and display. The tasks listed (window adjustment, stacking, annotation, measurement, MPR, 3D views) are all related to the visual interpretation and analysis of medical images.
  • There is no mention of analyzing biological samples or performing tests on bodily fluids or tissues.

Therefore, the BeyondImage Workstation falls under the category of medical imaging software, not 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)
Classification. Class II (special controls; voluntary standards—Digital Imaging and Communications in Medicine (DICOM) Std., Joint Photographic Experts Group (JPEG) Std., Society of Motion Picture and Television Engineers (SMPTE) Test Pattern).
