The document explicitly states the software "makes no independent interpretations of the data and requires competent human intervention for all steps in the analysis process," which is contrary to the typical function of AI/ML. While it uses "image analysis algorithms," these are not described in a way that suggests AI/ML, and the lack of mention of training/test sets for model development further supports this.
No
The Virtuoso system is an in vitro diagnostic device used as an aid to the pathologist for analysis and viewing of digital slides. It does not exert any therapeutic effect on a patient.
Yes
The document explicitly states in the "Intended Use / Indications for Use" section that the Virtuoso system "is intended for in vitro diagnostic use as an aid to the pathologist..." and later specifies its use "as an aid to the pathologist in the detection and semi-quantitative measurement of progesterone receptor (PR) protein in formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded normal and neoplastic tissue."
No
The device description explicitly states that the Virtuoso System is an "instrument-plus-software system" and includes a slide scanner (iScan) as a component.
Yes, this device is an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" section explicitly states that the Virtuoso system is "intended for in vitro diagnostic use as an aid to the pathologist".
- Specific Application: The description of the Virtuoso™ System for IHC PR (1E2) further clarifies its intended use in the "detection and semi-quantitative measurement of progesterone receptor (PR) protein in formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded normal and neoplastic tissue," which is a diagnostic application.
- Accessory to an IVD: It is described as an "accessory to Ventana Medical Systems, Inc. CONFIRM™ anti-Progesterone Receptor (PR) (1E2) Rabbit Monoclonal Primary Antibody assay," which is itself indicated for use in the assessment of breast cancer patients. This further reinforces its role in the diagnostic process.
- Performance Studies: The document includes details about performance studies comparing the device's results to manual reads, which is typical for IVD devices seeking regulatory clearance.
- Key Metrics: The inclusion of metrics like Positive Percent Agreement (PPA), Negative Percent Agreement (NPA), and Overall Percent Agreement (OPA) are standard performance indicators for IVD devices.
- Predicate Device: The mention of a "Predicate Device(s)" with a K number (K111869) indicates that this device is being compared to a previously cleared IVD device.
All of these points strongly support the classification of this device as an In Vitro Diagnostic.

Device Description
The Virtuoso™ System is an instrument-plus-software system designed to assist the qualified pathologist in the consistent assessment of protein expression in immunohistochemically stained histologic sections from formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded normal and neoplastic tissues. The system consists of a slide scanner (iScan), computer, monitor, keyboard, mouse, image analysis algorithms for specific immunohistochemical markers, and software with a Windows web browser-based user interface. Virtuoso is a web-based, end-to-end, digital pathology software solution that allows pathology laboratories to acquire, manage, view, analyze, share, and report digital images of pathology specimens. Using the Virtuoso software, the pathologist can view digital images, add annotations, make measurements, perform image analysis, and generate reports.
The iScan slide scanning device captures digital images of Hardware: formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded tissues that are suitable for storage and viewing. The device includes a digital slide scanner, racks for loading glass slides, computer, scanner software, keyboard, mouse and monitor.
The Virtuoso software is designed to complement the routine Software: workflow of a qualified pathologist in the review of immunohistochemically stained histologic slides. It allows the user to select fields of view (FOVs) in the digital image for analysis and provides quantitative data on these FOVs to assist with interpretation. The software makes no independent interpretations of the data and requires competent human intervention for all steps in the analysis process.
Additional Materials Required:
- Ventana CONFIRM™ anti-Progesterone Receptor (PR) (1E2) Rabbit . Monoclonal Primary Antibody
- Reagents for visualization, such as DAB chromogen .
- Associated materials for completing immunohistochemical staining according 0 to the appropriate package insert
- Color printer if user wishes to print color copies .
The quality of results depends on the laboratory following the quality control instructions recommended in the labeling of the immunohistochemistry (IHC) reagents. The software also performs a quality check on the digital images to determine if they are suitable for further analysis using "Image Quality Assessment" algorithms.
Samples are obtained as formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded tissue blocks. Histologic sections are prepared and mounted onto glass slides are reacted with the PR (1E2) primary antibody, and are then visualized using DAB. Prepared slides are loaded into the Virtuoso system scanner and scanned. The resulting digital images are reviewed by the pathologist on a computer monitor, and appropriate fields of view (FOVs) are then selected for analysis by the Virtuoso software. The Virtuoso software produces a quantitative score for the FOV and an aggregate score over all the FOVs for the whole slide. The pathologist has the choice of accepting the result or overriding with his/her own score for some or all FOVs.

The Virtuoso System for IHC PR (1E2) with the Benchmark ULTRA stainer was clinically validated via a concordance study where approximately 120 cases were evaluated three ways by one pathologist at one site in a blinded fashion. Each case was scored (1) manually with a routine microscope, (2) as a digital image, and (3) by way of the image analysis application using a different order of slide presentation for each round. The manual score (reference result) was compared to both the digital read result and the image analysis result.
The data were evaluated as positive or negative for PR status using 0% to 0.99% positive staining as negative status, and at least 1% positive staininbg as positive status for both digital read and image analysis methods.

§ 864.1860 Immunohistochemistry reagents and kits.
(a)
Identification. Immunohistochemistry test systems (IHC's) are in vitro diagnostic devices consisting of polyclonal or monoclonal antibodies labeled with directions for use and performance claims, which may be packaged with ancillary reagents in kits. Their intended use is to identify, by immunological techniques, antigens in tissues or cytologic specimens. Similar devices intended for use with flow cytometry devices are not considered IHC's.(b)
Classification of immunohistochemistry devices. (1) Class I (general controls). Except as described in paragraphs (b)(2) and (b)(3) of this section, these devices are exempt from the premarket notification requirements in part 807, subpart E of this chapter. This exemption applies to IHC's that provide the pathologist with adjunctive diagnostic information that may be incorporated into the pathologist's report, but that is not ordinarily reported to the clinician as an independent finding. These IHC's are used after the primary diagnosis of tumor (neoplasm) has been made by conventional histopathology using nonimmunologic histochemical stains, such as hematoxylin and eosin. Examples of class I IHC's are differentiation markers that are used as adjunctive tests to subclassify tumors, such as keratin.(2) Class II (special control, guidance document: “FDA Guidance for Submission of Immunohistochemistry Applications to the FDA,” Center for Devices and Radiologic Health, 1998). These IHC's are intended for the detection and/or measurement of certain target analytes in order to provide prognostic or predictive data that are not directly confirmed by routine histopathologic internal and external control specimens. These IHC's provide the pathologist with information that is ordinarily reported as independent diagnostic information to the ordering clinician, and the claims associated with these data are widely accepted and supported by valid scientific evidence. Examples of class II IHC's are those intended for semiquantitative measurement of an analyte, such as hormone receptors in breast cancer.
(3) Class III (premarket approval). IHC's intended for any use not described in paragraphs (b)(1) or (b)(2) of this section.
(c)
Date of PMA or notice of completion of a PDP is required. As of May 28, 1976, an approval under section 515 of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act is required for any device described in paragraph (b)(3) of this section before this device may be commercially distributed. See § 864.3.
