Intended Use
DeltaView is intended to generate a secondary residual image based on a current and prior chest x-ray image of the same patient, resulting in improved detection of lung nodules that have changed between the two examinations. The DeltaView image provides adjunctive information and is not a substitute for the original PA/AP image. This device is intended to be used by trained professionals, such as physicians and radiologists, on patients with risk of having lung nodules, and is not intended to be used on pediatric patients.
Device Description
DeltaView is a dedicated post-processing application which registers current and prior chest exams to provide an image that shows areas of change.
More Information

No
The summary describes image processing and analysis for change detection but does not mention AI, ML, or related terms, nor does it provide details about training or test sets typically associated with AI/ML model development.

No
Explanation: A therapeutic device is one that treats, cures, or prevents disease. This device is solely for generating an image to aid in diagnosis, not for treatment.

Yes

Explanation: The device is intended for "improved detection of lung nodules that have changed between the two examinations" and its performance is evaluated in terms of "radiologists' diagnostic performance in the detection of actionable lung nodules". This indicates its use in aiding in the diagnosis of lung nodules.

Yes

The device is described as a "dedicated post-processing application" that operates on existing chest x-ray images. There is no mention of any associated hardware components being part of the device itself. The performance studies focus on the software's impact on image interpretation.

No, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • IVD devices are used to examine specimens obtained from the human body. This device, DeltaView, processes medical images (chest x-rays) taken directly from the patient. It does not analyze blood, urine, tissue samples, or any other biological specimen.
  • The intended use clearly describes image processing for diagnostic aid. The device generates a secondary image based on existing medical images to help radiologists detect changes in lung nodules. This is a form of medical image analysis, not in vitro testing.

The description of the device, its input, anatomical site, and intended user all align with a medical image processing device used for diagnostic interpretation, not an in vitro diagnostic device.

Summary of Performance Studies (study type, sample size, AUC, MRMC, standalone performance, key results)

In a multi-reader multi-case (MRMC) reader study, radiologists interpreted pairs of images in order to compare the radiologists' ability to detect valid change when they were aided by the DeltaView image. Localized receiver operating characteristic curves (in terms of the trade-off between sensitivity and specificity when the decision criteria change) were used to evaluate radiologists' diagnostic performance in the detection of actionable lung nodules on chest radiographs with and without the usage of DeltaView. The results indicated that DeltaView should be a useful adjunct for the interpretation of chest radiographs when looking for a change in a lung nodule.

The objective of the study was to demonstrate that a radiologist's results when using DeltaView images are superior to the radiologist's results when using standard prior and current AP/PA x-ray image pairs alone. Localized Receiver Operating Characteristic (LROC) Analysis and analyses for Sensitivity, Specificity, and Positive and Negative Predictive Value were performed. The research hypothesis indicating superiority was that the upper 95% confidence limit on the differences in the area under the DeltaView LROC curve (AUCDV) subtracted from the area under the Unaided LROC curve (AUCUA) is greater than or equal to 0.0.

There were significant changes when the DeltaView difference image was used. The area under the LROC curve (AUCLROC) increased from 0.477 to 0.536 (12.4%) (p = 2.9E-05)

§ 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)

Comparison to Predicate Device:

DeltaView is substantially equivalent to the cited predicate device. Differences in the design and performance from the cited predicate device do not affect either the safety or effectiveness of Delta View for its intended use.

Conclusion: DeltaView is a mathematical model of the current medical practice of manually comparing radiographic images. Radiologists routinely compare prior and current chest x-rays from the same patient, when available, to ascertain whether pathological change has occurred. The comparison requires the radiologist to associate regions of interest and neutralize the acquisition effects. Delta View facilitates the comparison process through the automated formation of a difference image, by registering and subtracting a difference of normalized, bone suppressed image pairs. DeltaView achieves this using a variety of advanced image processing and pattern recognition methods. Just as the cited predicate device removes obstructions from a chest X-ray image in order to enhance the radiologist's detection of suspicious structures, so DeltaView obscures the unchanged portions of patient images taken over time in order to enhance the radiologist's detection of suspicious, changed structures. Furthermore, DeltaView uses the same bone suppression mechanism as the predicate device as part of its residual image algorithm. There are no new issues of safety and effectiveness raised by the incorporation of the predicate device's bone suppression in this new device. Reader Study Results: In a multi-reader multi-case (MRMC) reader study, radiologists interpreted pairs of images in order to compare the radiologists' ability to detect valid change when they were aided by the DeltaView image. Localized receiver operating characteristic curves (in terms of the trade-off between sensitivity and specificity when the decision criteria change) were used to evaluate radiologists' diagnostic performance in the detection of actionable lung nodules on chest radiographs with and without the usage of DeltaView. The results indicated that DeltaView should be

a useful adjunct for the interpretation of chest radiographs when looking for a change in a lung nodule.

The objective of the study was to demonstrate that a radiologist's results when using DeltaView images are superior to the radiologist's results when using standard prior and current AP/PA x-ray image pairs alone. Localized Receiver Operating Characteristic (LROC) Analysis and analyses for Sensitivity, Specificity, and Positive and Negative Predictive Value were performed. The research hypothesis indicating superiority was that the upper 95% confidence limit on the differences in the area under the DeltaView LROC curve (AUCDV) subtracted from the area under the Unaided LROC curve (AUCUA) is greater than or equal to 0.0.

There were significant changes when the DeltaView difference image was used. The area under the LROC curve (AUCLROC) increased from 0.477 to 0.536 (12.4%) (p = 2.9E-05)

Substantial Equivalence: The reader study described above used similar methods and achieved similar results to the reader study that was reviewed by FDA when clearing the predicate device (K092363). In both cases, an image processing application generates a secondary image for the radiologist to view, and in both cases, the use of this secondary image resulted in a statistically significant improvement in the radiologist's ability to detect actionable lung nodules.

It should also be noted that Delta View automates the current clinical reading practice of manually comparing a current radiographic image with a prior image from the same patient.
