Intended Use
The Siemens Symbia series is intended for use by appropriately trained health care professionals to aid in detecting, localizing, diagnosing, staging and restaging of lesions, tumors, disease and organ function for the evaluation of diseases and disorders such as, but not limited to, cardiovascular disease, neurological disorders and cancer. The images produced by the system can also be used by the physician to aid in radiotherapy treatment planning and interventional radiology procedures. Software: The MI Applications software is a display and analysis package intended to aid the clinician in the assessment and quantification of pathologies taken from SPECT, PET, CT and other imaging modalities.
Device Description
Symbia.net introduces client/server functionality allowing the MI Applications product to be deployed on any compatible hardware (includinq desktops, laptops and workstations) that meet minimal hardware reguirements. Symbia.net is a solution for SPECT and SPECT-CT systems. The software application is provided on a server. Clients running on any personal computer or Mac, meeting minimum requirements, can have access to the system. The rendered images on the client and server side are clinically equivalent with each other. No imaqe quality degradation on any of the imaqes shown in the clients compared to the images shown on the server related to resolution, color and timing.
More Information

No
The document does not mention AI, ML, or related terms, and the description focuses on client/server architecture for image display and analysis.

No
The device is used to aid in detecting, localizing, diagnosing, staging, and restaging of conditions, and for radiotherapy treatment planning and interventional radiology procedures, which are diagnostic and procedural support functions, not therapeutic.

Yes

The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" section explicitly states that the device is intended "to aid in detecting, localizing, diagnosing, staging and restaging of lesions, tumors, disease and organ function for the evaluation of diseases and disorders." The software also aims to "aid the clinician in the assessment and quantification of pathologies." These phrases clearly indicate a diagnostic purpose.

Yes

The device is described as a software application provided on a server with clients running on personal computers or Macs. It explicitly states it introduces client/server functionality for the MI Applications product, which is a software display and analysis package. While it interacts with imaging modalities (SPECT, PET, CT), the device itself is presented as the software solution for displaying and analyzing these images, not the imaging hardware itself.

Based on the provided information, the Siemens Symbia series and its associated software are not an In Vitro Diagnostic (IVD) device.

Here's why:

  • IVD Definition: IVD devices are used to examine specimens (like blood, urine, or tissue) taken from the human body to provide information about a person's health. This testing is done outside of the body (in vitro).
  • Symbia's Function: The Symbia series and its software are imaging systems. They produce images of the inside of the body using modalities like SPECT, PET, and CT. The software then helps in the display and analysis of these images. This is an in vivo process (within the living body).
  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly states aiding in detecting, localizing, diagnosing, staging, and restaging of lesions, tumors, disease, and organ function based on images produced by the system. It also mentions aiding in radiotherapy treatment planning and interventional radiology procedures, all of which are based on imaging.
  • Device Description: The description focuses on the client/server architecture for accessing and displaying images from imaging modalities.

In summary, the Siemens Symbia series is an imaging system used for diagnostic and treatment planning purposes based on images acquired from within the patient's body, not an IVD device that analyzes specimens outside the body.

§ 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).

Dear Ms. Chang:

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 class II (Special Controls), it may be subject to such additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in Title 21, Code of Federal Regulations (CFR), Parts 800 to 895: In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register.

Please be advised that FDA's issuance of a substantial equivalence determination does not mean that FDA has made a determination that your device complies with other requirements of the Act or any Federal statutes and regulations administered by other Federal agencies. You must comply with all the Act's requirements, including, but not limited to: registration and listing (21 CFR Part 807); labeling (21 CFR Parts 801 and 809); medical device reporting (reporting of

3

medical device-related adverse events) (21 CFR 803); and good manufacturing practice requirements as set forth in the quality systems (QS) regulation (21 CFR Part 820). This letter will allow you to begin marketing your device as described in your Section 510(k) premarket notification. The FDA finding of substantial equivalence of your device to a legally marketed predicate device results in a classification for your device and thus, permits your device to proceed to the market.

If you desire specific advice for your device on our labeling regulation (21 CFR Parts 801 and 809), please contact the Office of In Vitro Diagnostic Device Evaluation and Safety at (301) 796-5450. Also, please note the regulation entitled, "Misbranding by reference to premarket notification" (21 CFR Part 807.97). For questions regarding the reporting of adverse events under the MDR regulation (21 CFR Part 803), please go to http://www.fda.gov/MedicalDevices/Safety/ReportaProblem/default.htm for the CDRH's Office of Surveillance and Biometrics/Division of Postmarket Surveillance.

You may obtain other general information on your responsibilities under the Act from the Division of Small Manufacturers, International and Consumer Assistance at its toll-free number (800) 638-2041 or (301) 796-7100 or at its Internet address http://www.fda.gov/cdrh/industry/support/index.html.
