Intended Use
Syngo.CT Cardiac Function is an image analysis software package for evaluating cardiac CT angiography (CTA) volume data sets. Combining digital image processing and visualization tools (multiplanar reconstruction (MPR) thin/thick, minimum intensity projection (MIP) thin/thick, inverted MIP thin/thick, volume rendering technique (VRT)), evaluation tools (left and right ventricular (LV/RV) volume calculation, left ventricular myocardial wall calculation and visualization of myocardial enhancement by color coding of hypo-/hyperdense areas) and reporting tools (finding location, finding characteristics and key images), the software package is designed to support the physician in determining the functional parameters of the left and right ventricles, confirming the presence of physician-identified myocardial enhancement defects and evaluation, documentation and follow-up of any such finding. These visualization/evaluation tools allow for quantification of functional parameters and characterization of myocardial enhancements defects over time, helping the physician to assess any changes. It is also designed to help the physician classify conspicuous regions of tissue.

More Information

No
The summary describes standard image processing and visualization techniques for cardiac CT data analysis and does not mention AI or ML.

No
The device is an image analysis software package for evaluating cardiac CT angiography (CTA) volume data sets, designed to support physicians in determining functional parameters and evaluating myocardial enhancement defects. It does not exert any direct therapeutic action on the patient.

Yes
The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" section states that the software is designed to support physicians in "determining the functional parameters of the left and right ventricles, confirming the presence of physician-identified myocardial enhancement defects and evaluation, documentation and follow-up of any such finding" and to "help the physician classify conspicuous regions of tissue." These functions are directly related to identifying and characterizing medical conditions, which falls under the definition of a diagnostic device.

Yes

The device is explicitly described as an "image analysis software package" and its functions are solely related to processing and analyzing existing CT image data. There is no mention of any hardware component being part of the device itself.

Based on the provided information, this device is NOT an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostics are medical devices used to perform tests on samples taken from the human body, such as blood, urine, or tissue, to provide information about a person's health.
  • Device Function: Syngo.CT Cardiac Function is an image analysis software package that processes imaging data (CT angiography). It does not analyze biological samples taken from the body.
  • Intended Use: The intended use is to support physicians in evaluating cardiac CT images, calculating functional parameters, and assessing myocardial enhancement defects. This is based on interpreting visual information from the images, not on analyzing biological markers in a sample.

Therefore, while it is a medical device used for diagnosis and evaluation, it falls under the category of medical imaging software rather than an In Vitro Diagnostic device.

Dear Mr. Stuiber:

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

5

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.
