Intended Use
Siemens syngo MBF is a software product intended for visualization, assessment and quantification of PET images. The application performs quantitative measurements of tracer uptake over time to aid in the interpretation of myocardial perfusion PET images. The product is intended for use by trained professionals. The Clinician retains the ultimate responsibility for making the pertinent assessment based on their standard practices and visual comparison of the information.
Device Description
syngo MBF is a software only product intended for visualization, assessment and quantification of medical images: specifically providing quantitative blood flow measurements of PET images. The application supports dynamic Rubidium – PET and dynamic Ammonia - PET images. The application provides visualization and measurement tools, for qualitative and quantitative visualization and assessment of the input data. It provides automatic and manual tools to orient and segment the myocardium. The software calculates measurements of myocardial blood flow, and provides tools, for the Clinician to assess these results. The user may save the results. The application is intended for use by trained professionals. The Clinician retains the ultimate responsibility for making the pertinent assessment based on their standard practices and visual assessment of the myocardial perfusion PET images. The quantitative assessment is to be used in conjunction with traditional visual assessment of myocardial perfusion PET images for the assessment of coronary artery disease, and quantitatively by comparing to a database.

No
The document describes standard image processing and quantitative analysis techniques for PET images, with no mention of AI or ML algorithms. The emphasis is on visualization, measurement tools, and calculations based on established methods, with the clinician retaining ultimate responsibility for interpretation.

No
The device is a software product for visualization, assessment, and quantification of PET images, providing quantitative measurements to aid clinicians in interpretation. It is not designed to directly treat, prevent, or mitigate a disease or condition.

Yes

The software "aids in the interpretation of myocardial perfusion PET images" and "calculates measurements of myocardial blood flow", which are quantitative assessments used in conjunction with visual assessment for the "assessment of coronary artery disease". This directly supports diagnosis by providing data for clinical interpretation and decision-making regarding a medical condition.

Yes

The device description explicitly states "syngo MBF is a software only product".

Based on the provided information, the Siemens syngo MBF device is not an In Vitro Diagnostic (IVD).

Here's why:

  • IVDs analyze samples taken from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue). This device analyzes images of the human body (PET images).
  • The intended use is for visualization, assessment, and quantification of images, not biological samples.
  • The device processes imaging data to provide measurements related to blood flow within the myocardium. This is an analysis of physiological function as depicted in an image, not an analysis of a biological specimen.

Therefore, syngo MBF falls under the category of medical imaging software, not an IVD.

§ 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)

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

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 5 00%) premarket notification. The FDA finding of substantial equivalence of your device to a logal y 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 (01) 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.
