The document mentions a "novel fit-algorithm" but does not explicitly state or imply the use of AI or ML. The focus is on data processing and evaluation with workflow guidance.
No
Explanation: This device is a post-processing application for analyzing and evaluating MR spectroscopy data to assist in diagnosis, not to provide therapy.
Yes
Explanation: The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" section states that the device "supports the diagnostic process" and its results "provide information that may assist in diagnosis."
Yes
The device is described as a "syngo.via-based MR spectroscopy data viewing, processing and reading software" and its components are listed as software packages. There is no mention of accompanying hardware that is part of the medical device itself.
Based on the provided information, 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, such as blood, urine, or tissue, to detect diseases, conditions, or infections. They are used to examine these samples outside of the body.
- Device Function: syngo.MR Spectroscopy is a post-processing software that analyzes and evaluates MR spectroscopy data and MR images. This data is acquired from in-vivo examinations (examinations performed on a living organism).
- Input Data: The input data is MR spectroscopy data and MR images, which are generated from imaging the patient's body directly, not from samples taken from the body.
Therefore, because the device processes data from in-vivo imaging rather than analyzing samples taken from the body, it does not fit the definition of an In Vitro Diagnostic device.

Intended Use / Indications for Use
syngo.MR Spectroscopy is a post-processing application to analyze and evaluate MR spectroscopy data. It provides evaluation of MR Single Voxel Spectroscopy (SVS) data and MR Chemical Shift Imaging (CSI) data with workflow guidance to support the diagnostic process.
syngo.MR Spectroscopy includes the possibility of an integrated reading of MR images and spectroscopy data for spectroscopy exams and focuses on ease-of-use by reducing complexity. A novel fit-algorithm reduces the need for manual data processing and offers the user reproducible evaluation results. When interpreted by a trained physician, these results provide information that may assist in diagnosis.
The post-processing tool fits and displays spectra and provides intuitive representations of the metabolic profile. The calculation and display of predefined results such as spectral maps, and metabolite images is provided. The evaluation can be adapted by the customer via protocol modification and task configurations. Interactive reading of spectroscopy exams is supported by side-by-side display of MR images and spectroscopy results, and synchronized display.

(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)

Dear Ms. Sookdeo:
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.
