More Information

No
The document describes image analysis software that performs calculations and generates maps based on user-defined parameters and acquired data. There is no mention of AI, ML, or any learning algorithms.

No.
The device is an image analysis software that assists clinicians in diagnosis, but it does not directly treat or alleviate a disease or condition. It is a diagnostic tool, not a therapeutic one.

Yes
The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" section explicitly states that the software "may provide clinically relevant information for diagnosis." Additionally, the "Device Description" mentions that "Brain View is a post processing image analysis software package that provides advanced techniques to aid in the diagnosis of neurological and oncological diseases" and "Body View... provides advanced techniques to aid in the diagnosis of oncological diseases in the human body." These statements indicate that the device is intended to assist in the diagnostic process.

Yes

The device is described as "image analysis software" and a "suite of applications" that runs on existing hardware platforms (Advantage Workstation, Advantage Workstation Server Gen 2, and AW Server PACS). The description focuses entirely on the software's functionality for processing and analyzing MR data, with no mention of accompanying or integrated hardware components.

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

Here's why:

  • IVDs analyze biological samples: In Vitro Diagnostics are designed to examine specimens taken from the human body, such as blood, urine, tissue, etc., outside of the body (in vitro).
  • This device analyzes medical images: The description clearly states that READY View is an "image analysis software" that processes "MR generated data sets" and "Magnetic Resonance images." It works with images acquired from an MR scanner, not biological samples.

The device falls under the category of medical image processing software, which is distinct from IVDs.

(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)

READY View along with Brain View and Body View options are available on the Advantage Workstation (AW), Advantage Workstation Server Gen 2 and AW Server PACS, for viewing and processing Magnetic Resonance images.

Intended Use:

READY View is a image analysis software that allows the user to process dynamic or functional volumetric data and to generate maps that display changes in image intensity over time, echo time, b-value (Diffusion imaging) and frequency (Spectroscopy). The combination of acquired images, reconstructed images, calculated parametric images, tissue segmentation, annotations and measurement performed by the clinician allows multi-parametric analysis and may provide clinically relevant information for diagnosis.

READY View (K110573) is a post-processing application processing MR functional data of the human body acquired from a MR Scanner. Targeted onatomy includes but is not limited to Brain, Breast, Prostate, and Liver.

Functional data sets contain a series of sequentially ordered images for each scan location, where the interval between images can represent time, b-value, echo time, gradient orientation or ppm value (frequency) depending on the data set.

The pixel value in an area of interest at a given scan location may have a different value for each image. To analyze these changes in pixel values, READY View provides two tools:

  • . Graphs: the pixel values at a given pixel location are plotted as a graph. The graphs can then be represented by the pixel value over the image number or the pixel value over time, bvalue, echo time, gradient orientation or ppm value.
  • Functional images: for each pixel location, the pixel values from the images are used to compute a characteristic parameter by means of a function. A functional map is then constructed by displaying the value of the parameter for each pixel location.

READY View provides protocols that enable a fast, easy and quantified analysis of the multiple data sets.

The fundamental scientific technology has not changed as a result of the proposed modifications.

Dear Ms. Mathew:

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

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.
