The summary describes a standard PACS system for image storage, viewing, and management, with no mention of AI or ML capabilities.
No.
The device is described as an "integrated medical imaging solution" for storage, manipulation, and annotation of radiological images, intended to enhance "diagnostic decision making." It does not mention treating, mitigating, or preventing any disease or condition.
Yes
The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" section states that ImageLink "enhances the efficiency of diagnostic decision making." This indicates its role in aiding the diagnostic process.
No
The device description explicitly states that the "software applications, combined with the hardware platform and networking infrastructure, make up the ImageLink System," indicating it is not solely software.
Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use clearly states that ImageLink is for the storage, manipulation, and annotation of high-resolution digital radiological images. It enhances the efficiency of diagnostic decision making by providing tools for viewing and organizing these images. This is related to the interpretation of medical images, not the analysis of biological samples or substances from the human body.
- Device Description: The description focuses on the software components, hardware platform, and networking infrastructure for managing and viewing radiological images from various modalities. It does not mention any components or processes related to analyzing biological samples.
- Input: The input is radiological images from various modalities (CR, CT, MR, etc.), not biological samples.
- Lack of IVD characteristics: There is no mention of analyzing blood, urine, tissue, or any other biological material. The device's function is centered around image management and viewing for diagnostic purposes based on those images.
IVD devices are specifically designed to examine specimens derived from the human body to provide information for diagnostic, monitoring, or screening purposes. ImageLink's function falls under the category of medical imaging software and systems used for interpreting images, which is distinct from 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)

F.9 Technology
The ImageLink Server provides a scalable, storage solution for medical images. Utilizing standard DICOM communications protocols, the server accepts images stored to it from authorized modalities, and also provides these modalities with worklists. The server also provides medical image studies to the ImageLink viewer when requested.
All archived image data is preserved in the format in which is it received by the ImageLink Server. The ImageLink server employs presentation states to store any changes such as annotations, editing, or image manipulations performed on the images. All manipulations and annotations can be reversed in the system to provide the user with the original images unchanged.
The ImageLink Viewer is used to view, analyze, edit, compare, annotate, store, and

F.11 Summary of Characteristics to that of the Predicate
CPSI ImageLinkTM is substantially equivalent to its predicate device, GE Medical Systems, Information Technologies Centricity PACS System (K043415). Both devices are similar in intended use, device description, materials used, the target population and intended environment for use. Both devices consist of a hardware platform, server application software, image viewing software, and web tools. There are minor differences in terms of technology employed as well as minor functional differences with configurable hotkeys, integration with historical reports and voice clip. These differences do not detract from the equivalence claim.

Dear Mr. Hunt:
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 (OS) 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 1 809), 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/ReportalProblem/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.
