No
The document describes image processing and calculations but does not mention AI, ML, or any related terms like deep learning or neural networks. The modifications listed are focused on user interface enhancements and customization, not advanced analytical capabilities.
No.
The device is used for diagnostic interpretation of images, electronic documentation, and generation of medical reports, but it is not intended to operate medical devices in surgery-related procedures or to provide therapy.
Yes
Explanation: The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" states that ViewPoint "serves the purposes of diagnostic interpretation of images" and that "The medical images, which ViewPoint displays to the user, can be used for diagnostic purposes." The "Device Description" also notes that it is "used for diagnostic purpose."
Yes
The device description explicitly states it is "an-image-archiving and reporting software" and details software-based functionalities like administration, data acquisition, transfer, reporting, network interfacing, archiving, image processing, and calculations. The modifications described are also software enhancements. There is no mention of accompanying hardware components that are part of the medical device itself.
Based on the provided text, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use clearly states that ViewPoint is for "diagnostic interpretation of images, electronic documentation of examinations... and generation of medical reports primarily for diagnostic ultrasound." It focuses on managing and displaying medical images and data for diagnostic purposes, not on performing tests on biological specimens.
- Device Description: The description reinforces this by stating it's an "image-archiving and reporting software."
- Lack of Mention of Biological Specimens: There is no mention of the device interacting with or analyzing biological samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.), which is a core characteristic of IVD devices.
- Focus on Image Processing and Data Management: The capabilities described are related to image processing, data acquisition, transfer, display, storage, and reporting, all of which are typical functions of medical imaging software.
IVD devices are specifically designed to perform tests on specimens derived from the human body to provide information for the diagnosis, treatment, or prevention of disease. ViewPoint's function is centered around the management and interpretation of medical images, not the analysis of biological samples.

(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. Landreville:
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
4
medical device-related adverse events) (21 CFR 803); and good manufacturing practice requirements as set forth in the quality systems (QS) regulation (2) 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.
