Intended Use
OrthoCAD is an option that provides the morphometry of the lumbo-sacral section of the spine, by means of semi-automatic segmentation of MR images, the generation of the relative 3D model and calculation of the significant geometrical properties of the vertebral bodies and spinal canal. When this data is interpreted by a trained physician, it can yield information that may assist diagnosis.
Device Description
The OrthoCAD software option is a software package intended to be used with Esaote Gscan system cleared via K111803. OrthoCAD provides the morphometry of the lumbosacral section of the spine, by means of semi-automatic segmentation of MR images, the generation of the relative 3D model and calculation of the significant geometrical properties of the vertebral bodies and spinal canal. When this data is interpreted by a trained physician, it can yield information that may assist diagnosis. G-scan is a Magnetic Resonance (MR) system, which produces images of the internal structures of the patient's limbs and joints. The OrthoCAD system allows you to visualize, analyse and compare Magnetic Resonance images. The system is connected to a database that enables the physician to keep track of all the patients examined over time. The images are acquired by running FSE T2 Rel sequences on the G-scan of the lumbosacral tract of the vertebral spine, in the sagittal plane, and are transferred to the OrthoCAD database following acquisition. When the MR images are stored on the OrthoCAD database, the user can proceed with a manual or semi-automatic (wizard) segmentation of the vertebral bodies (from L1 up to S1) and of the spinal canal. During the segmentation of the anatomical elements, 3D models are constructed based on the segmented structures. When the segmentation procedure has been terminated, the user can proceed with the evaluation of the following significant clinical parameters: - . Vertebral wedging - Listhesis index . - Intervertebral translation index . - Intervertebral angles . - Vertebral collapse index . - . Spinal curvature - . Spinal canal thickness - . Spinal canal section - Foramen area . . Following this process, the endoscopic virtual navigation within the segmented spinal canal is enabled. Finally, if the user has worked on MR images acquired both in the clinostatic and orthostatic mode, the measures calculated and the virtual navigation of the two the positions can be compared, and a report containing all the information is produced. OrthoCAD is made up of six environments: - . Patient Management: contains the functions required for the display and management of patients stored in the database associated with the system. - Home: keeps track of the procedures executed overtime for the selected patient . (analyses present, status of examinations associated with the various analyses, etc.). - . Segmentation: carries out the functions used for the segmentation and those related to the construction of 3D models of anatomic elements - Measurements: includes all tools required to measure the clinical parameters . used for the analysis of the currently selected exam. - Navigation: enables endoscopic virtual navigation within the segmented . anatomical structures by means of the definition of anatomic points, in order to construct one (or more) navigation routes. - . Comparison: enables the comparison of two different examinations within the same analysis or within different analyses provided they are the same type. This environment enables: - . The simultaneous display, or superimposed display when required, of anatomical elements which belong to the two volumes being compared. - 미 The simultaneous display of the different measurements, with an indication of the main differences between these values.

No
The description mentions "semi-automatic segmentation" and "wizard" functionality, which are typically rule-based or traditional image processing techniques, not explicitly AI/ML. There is no mention of AI, ML, or related terms like neural networks, deep learning, or training/test sets for model development.

No.
OrthoCAD is a software option that assists diagnosis by providing morphometry of the lumbosacral spine from MR images, but it does not treat or prevent any disease or condition.

Yes.

The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" section explicitly states that the device "can yield information that may assist diagnosis."

No

The device is described as a "software option" intended to be used with an existing MR system (Esaote Gscan, K111803). While OrthoCAD itself is software, its function is entirely dependent on and integrated with the hardware of the MR system for image acquisition. The 510(k) summary describes testing of the "G-scan system with the addition of the OrthoCAD Software Option," indicating it's not a standalone software device.

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

Here's why:

  • IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostics are devices intended for use in the collection, preparation, and examination of specimens taken from the human body (such as blood, urine, tissue) to provide information for the diagnosis, treatment, or prevention of disease.
  • OrthoCAD's Function: OrthoCAD processes medical images (MR images of the spine) and performs measurements and analysis on those images. It does not interact with or analyze biological specimens taken from the patient.
  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly states that OrthoCAD provides morphometry of the spine based on MR images and that this data, when interpreted by a physician, "may assist diagnosis." This aligns with the function of medical image analysis software, not IVDs.

Therefore, OrthoCAD falls under the category of medical image processing and analysis software, not In Vitro Diagnostics.
