No
The device computes a score (TBS) that is used to assess fracture risk and monitor treatment effects, but it explicitly states that it "does not diagnose disease, or recommend treatment regimens." It serves as a complement to DEXA analysis and clinical examination, providing information to assist healthcare professionals in their judgments, rather than directly providing therapy.
No
The document explicitly states, "The software does not diagnose disease, or recommend treatment regimens." Instead, it is described as a "complement to a DEXA analysis" that "can assist the health care professional in assessment of fracture risk and in monitoring the effect of treatments."
Yes
The device is described as a "software package" that analyzes data derived from DEXA examinations. The description focuses solely on the software's function and analysis algorithm, with no mention of accompanying hardware components or hardware-specific validation.
Based on the provided information, the Med-Imaps TBS iNsight device is not an In Vitro Diagnostic (IVD).
Here's why:
- IVDs analyze biological samples: IVDs are designed to examine specimens derived from the human body, such as blood, urine, tissue, etc., to provide information about a person's health.
- This device analyzes medical images: The Med-Imaps TBS iNsight software analyzes data derived from DEXA images, which are medical images of the spine. It does not process or analyze any biological samples.
- The intended use is image analysis for risk assessment: The intended use clearly states that the software computes a score from a DEXA examination file to assist in the assessment of fracture risk. This is a function related to medical image analysis and interpretation, not the analysis of biological specimens.
Therefore, the Med-Imaps TBS iNsight falls under the category of medical image analysis software, not an In Vitro Diagnostic device.
N/A
Intended Use / Indications for Use
The Med-Imaps TBS iNsight is a software provided for use as a complement to a DEXA analysis. It computes the antero-posterior spine DEXA examination file and calculates a score (Trabecular Bone Score - TBS) that is compared to those of the age-matched controls. The TBS is derived from the texture of the DEXA image and has been shown to be related to bone microarchitecture and fracture risk. This data provides information independent of BMD value; it is used as a complement to the data obtained from the DEXA analysis and the clinical examination (questioning by the clinician about patient history, bioassay of bone resorption markers ... ).
The TBS score can assist the health care professional in assessment of fracture risk and in monitoring the effect of treatments on patients across time.
Overall fracture risk will depend on many additional factors that should be considered before making diagnostic or therapeutic recommendations. The software does not diagnose disease, or recommend treatment regimens. Only the health care professional can make these judgments.

PERFORMANCE BENCH TESTING
| Bench Test Performance was demonstrated via the following :
- Correlations between microarchitecture and TBS computed on simulated projections from µCT datasets
This study was to demonstate the level of correlation between the microarchitecture parameters of the 3-dimensional (3D) bone volume using a µCT (GE-Locus) and the TBS values computed on the 2D projected image of the bone volume, using thirty human cadaveric vertebrae.
Significant correlations were observed between TBS and 3D microarchitecture parameters, regardless of the projection resolution.
- Correlations between microarchitecture and TBS on DEXA scans .
This study was to demonstrate the correlations between the 3D microarchitecture parameters of human anteroposterior vertebrae and the TBS values computed on DEXA (Dual X-ray Absorptiometry) acquisitions, using thirty human cadaveric vertebrae.
Significant correlations were detected between TBS and 3D parameters of bone microarchitecture.
The study indicates that TBS adds value and power of differentiation between samples with similar BMDs but different bone microarchitectures. It strengthens our assumption that it is possible to estimate bone microarchitecture status from DEXA imaging using TBS.
TBS reproducibility ex-vivo This study is to evaluate the ex-vivo reproducibility of TBS without repositioning.

Dear Mr. Lelong:
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.

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
