Intended Use
Mammography Prior Enhancement (MPE) is a software application intended to enhance the appearance of prior non-Hologic digital mammography x-ray images so that they more closely resemble Hologic digital mammography images. MPE processed images are intended for comparison purposes only and cannot be used for primary diagnosis. MPE runs on a Windows-based computer. Results can be displayed on a workstation capable of displaying mammography x-ray images, such as Hologic's SecurView® DX workstation, Product Code LLZ, CFR 892.2050 (K103385)
Device Description
MPE is a software application that runs on a Windows server or softcopy display workstation, such as SecurView DX (K103385). MPE processes (manipulates) prior GE digital mammography images so that they will appear similar to Hologic digital mammography images. The image processing consists of various steps to improve visualization of structures in the breast including, logarithmic conversion, skin line correction and contrast enhancement. These are standard methods used to allow optimal display and review of mammography images with minimal window/leveling operation.
More Information

No
The description details standard image processing techniques (logarithmic conversion, skin line correction, contrast enhancement) and does not mention AI, ML, or any related terms.

No

Explanation: The device is a software application that enhances the appearance of mammography images for comparison purposes, not to treat or cure a disease or condition.

No

Explanation: The "Intended Use" section explicitly states that "MPE processed images are intended for comparison purposes only and cannot be used for primary diagnosis." This indicates it is not a diagnostic device.

Yes

The device is described solely as a software application that runs on a standard computer and processes existing digital images. It does not include any hardware components or require specific hardware for its function beyond a standard workstation capable of displaying images.

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.
  • Device Function: The description clearly states that MPE is a software application that processes and enhances digital mammography x-ray images. These are images of the breast, not samples taken from the body.
  • Intended Use: The intended use is for comparison purposes only and explicitly states it cannot be used for primary diagnosis. This further reinforces that it's not a diagnostic test performed on biological samples.

Therefore, MPE falls under the category of medical imaging software, not an in vitro diagnostic device.

§ 892.2050 Medical image management and processing system.

(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)

Predicate Device:Digital Now HD K091368

Predicate Device Description:

The Digital Now HD, K091368, is a software application intended to process digitized screen film mammography images for comparison purposes only. The software processes digitized prior film images to produce lossy-compressed DICOM images that more closely resemble digital mammography images. The R2 DigitalNow HD images are intended for comparison purposes only and cannot be used for primary diagnosis. The DigitalNow HD is a software application which runs on the Hologic Cenova server. (Class I exempt per 21 CFR § 892.2010 and CFR § 892.2020).

Device Description:

MPE is a software application that runs on a Windows server or softcopy display workstation, such as SecurView DX (K103385). MPE processes (manipulates) prior GE digital mammography images so that they will appear similar to Hologic digital mammography images. The image processing consists of various steps to improve visualization of structures in the breast including, logarithmic conversion, skin line correction and contrast enhancement. These are standard methods used to allow optimal display and review of mammography images with minimal window/leveling operation.

Intended Use:

Mammography Prior Enhancement (MPE) is a software application intended to enhance the appearance of prior non-Hologic digital mammography x-ray images so that they more

closely resemble Hologic digital mammography images. MPE processed images are intended for comparison purposes only and cannot be used for primary diagnosis.

MPE runs on a Windows-based computer. Results can be displayed on a workstation capable of displaying mammography x-ray images, such as Hologic's SecurView® DX workstation, Product Code LLZ, CFR 892.2050 (K103385)

Comparison with Predicate Device:

The MPE software application is similar to DigitalNow HD cleared as K091368. Both devices are software sharing the same technological characteristics. MPE and Digital-Now HD are both used to further process mammography images for use as reference during prior to current mammography image comparisons.

Technological Characteristics:

The device is software application and does not contact the patient, a diagnosis is not made from the MPE processed image, nor does it control any life-sustaining devices.

Safety and Effectiveness Concerns:

MPE is designed and manufactured in accordance with the following standards:

  • . ISO 13845 Medical Devices - Quality management Systems
  • . ISO 14971 Medical Devices - Application of Risk Management -
  • . IEC 62304 Medical Device Software Life Cycle Process
  • 21 CFR Part 820 Quality System Regulations .

The performance of the software is tested in accordance with Hologic's design control procedures to demonstrate intended performance. Potential hazards are controlled via risk management processes and verification and validation testing. Instructions for use are provided to facilitate intended operation.

Conclusion:

The MPE software further processes and displays prior digital mammography images for physicians or trained medical personnel to use as a historical image reference when reviewing current Hologic digital mammography images. The MPE processed images will appear similar to Hologic digital images.

The MPE software application and the predicate device share the same intended use, technical characteristic and performance standards. Potential hazards have been studied and controlled by a Risk Management Plan. Device failures which might result in partial or failed images do not affect the original saved image so there is no risk of data loss. MPE processed images are not intended for diagnosis. Based on the information supplied in this 510(k), the MPE software application is safe, effective and is substantially equivalent to the predicate device.
