The description focuses on image processing algorithms and automatic parameter optimization based on breast density, which are traditional image processing techniques, not explicitly AI/ML. There is no mention of AI, ML, or related terms like neural networks or deep learning.
No.
The device is used to generate diagnostic images, not to treat a condition.
Yes
The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" section explicitly states that the device "can be used for screening and in the diagnosis of breast cancer."
No
The device description explicitly states that the Senographe DS and Senographe Essential are full field digital mammography systems consisting of hardware components like a digital detector, x-ray tube, and x-ray generator. While the submission focuses on a software modification (Premium View i), it is an upgrade or option for these hardware systems, not a standalone software device.
Based on the provided text, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostics are tests performed on samples taken from the human body (like blood, urine, or tissue) to detect diseases, conditions, or infections.
- Device Function: The Senographe DS and Senographe Essential are imaging systems that generate digital mammographic images using X-rays. They are used for screening and diagnosis of breast cancer by visualizing the internal structure of the breast.
- Lack of Sample Analysis: The device does not analyze biological samples taken from the patient. It directly images the patient's body.
The device is a medical imaging system used for diagnostic purposes, but it falls under the category of medical devices that use imaging modalities, not in vitro diagnostics.

Intended Use / Indications for Use
The Senographe DS and Senographe Essential FFDM systems generate digital mammographic images that can be used for screening and in the diagnosis of breast cancer. The Senographe DS and Senographe Essential FFDM systems are intended to be used in the same clinical applications as traditional film-based mammographic systems.
Premium View is an image-processing algorithm, which increases the visibility of breast structures. The main advantage is to provide a single breast image, where the contrast in the fatty tissues is similar to that obtained by setting WW (window width) and WL (window level) for optimum visualization of fatty tissues, and the contrast in the fibro-glandular tissue is similar to that obtained by setting WW and WL for optimal visualization of fibro-glandular tissues.
PV i is an option that can simplify the presentation of mammographic images, improve workflow, and streamline the review process of images with very dark or bright areas by presenting the image with the WW and WL optimized for review with minimal need for the user to make adjustments for the various tissue areas. This could be especially useful with patients who have very dense breasts, or implants that currently require multiple adjustments of WW and WL to review.

Device Description
The Senographe DS and Senographe Essential are both full field digital mammography systems consisting of a digital detector, a dual track x-ray tube (molybdenum / rhodium) and an x-ray generator with control. The digital detector is a flat panel of amorphous silicon on which cesium iodide is deposited to maximize the detection of x-rays. The x-ray filter is a wheel with both a molybdenum and a rhodium filter to allow various combinations of x-ray tube track and filter when imaging breasts of different radiological densities. The system includes a feature called Automatic Optimization of Parameters (AOP) that automatically selects the kVp, the optimal x-ray tube track and beam filtration and then terminates the exposure based on the breast density to provide consistent image quality for the user across a wide range of breast sizes and densities.
The subject of this submission will introduce a modification to a previously approved (P990066 / S015 and P990066 S020) image processing algorithm called Premium View. Premium View is an image-processing algorithm, which increases the visibility of breast structures. The main advantage is to provide a single breast image, where the contrast in the fatty tissues is similar to that obtained by setting WW (window width) and WL (window level) for optimum visualization of fatty tissues, and the contrast in the fibro-glandular tissue is similar to that obtained by setting WW and WL for optimal visualization of fibro-glandular tissues.
Premium View i, when utilized with the Senographe DS or Senographe Essential introduces a software change that applies different LUT values during the image processing prior to display of a very dense breast, or one with implants. This Premarket Notification will implement this technology on GE Healthcare's existing Full Field Digital Mammography systems as an upgrade to existing systems, or as an option to new installations.

Technology: Premium View (PV) is image processing software which further improves the efficiency of the existing autocontrast feature; it also includes a modified version of the existing Tissue Equalization (TE) processing.
Such optimization is achieved by applying different LUTs (Look Up Tables) to a high pass and low pass extractions of the image. In doing so, management of the image dynamic is achieved so that by applying PV it increases the visibility of breast structures. This is done by enhancing the contrast in glandular tissue, while preserving the visibility of the whole breast.
Premium View i, when utilized with the Senographe DS or Senographe Essential introduces a software change that applies different LUT values during the image processing prior to display of a very dense breast, or one with implants.
Determination of Premium View i when installed on a Senographe DS or Substantial Equivalence: Senographe Essential FFDM system delivers functionality of comparable type that is substantially equivalent to our

Dear Mr. Kachelmeyer:
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.
