Intended Use
The syngo.CT Neuro Perfusion software package is designed to evaluate areas of brain perfusion. The software processes images or volumes that were reconstructed from continuously acquired CT data after the injection of contrast media. It generates the following result volumes: - Cerebral blood flow (CBF) - Cerebral blood volume (CBV) - Local bolus timing (time to start (TTS), time to peak (TTP), time to drain (TTD)) - Mean transit time (MTT) - Transit time to the center of the IRF (TMax) - Flow extraction product (permeability) - Temporal MIP - Temporal Average - Baseline Volume - Modified dynamic input data The software also allows the calculation of mirrored regions or volumes of interest and the visual inspection of time attenuation curves. One clinical application is to visualize the apparent blood perfusion and the parameter mismatch in brain tissue affected by acute stroke. Areas of decreased perfusion appear as areas of changed signal intensity: - Lower signal intensity for CBF and CBV - Higher signal intensity for TTP, TTD, MTT, and TMax A second application is to visualize blood brain barrier disturbances by modeling extra-vascular leakage of blood into the interstitial space. This additional capability may improve the differential diagnosis of brain tumors and be helpful in therapy monitoring.
Device Description
The syngo. CT Neuro Perfusion software allows the quantitative evaluation of dynamic CT data of the brain acquired during the injection of a compact bolus of iodinated contrast material. It mainly aids in the early differential diagnosis of acute ischemic stroke. Blood-brain-barrier (BBB) imaging also supports the diagnostic assessment of brain tumors. By providing images of e.g. cerebral blood flow (CBF), cerebral blood volume (CBV), time to peak (TTP), and Mean Transit Time (MTT) from one set of dynamic CT images or volumes, syngo.CT Neuro Perfusion allows a quick and reliable assessment of the type and extent of cerebral perfusion disturbances. The underlying approaches have been validated in extensive clinical studies and have been in routine clinical use for more than 10 vears. The current syngo.CT Neuro Perfusion implementation allows simultaneous multi-slice processing and supports the workflow requirements in a stroke workflow. The availability of flow extraction product imaging extends the option to the diagnosis of brain tumors.
More Information

Not Found

No
The description focuses on standard image processing techniques and quantitative evaluation of CT data based on established physiological parameters (CBF, CBV, TTP, MTT). There is no mention of AI, ML, or any learning-based algorithms. The validation is based on extensive clinical studies and routine clinical use, not on training and test sets typical for AI/ML models.

No.
The device is described as software designed to evaluate brain perfusion by processing CT data, aiding in diagnosis (e.g., acute ischemic stroke, brain tumors), but it does not directly treat or provide therapy to a patient.

Yes

The device processes medical images (CT data) to generate quantitative measurements (CBF, CBV, TTP, MTT, etc.) related to brain perfusion. It explicitly states that its intended use is to "aid in the early differential diagnosis of acute ischemic stroke" and to support "the diagnostic assessment of brain tumors" and "improve the differential diagnosis of brain tumors." These functions are consistent with the definition of a diagnostic device, as it provides information for the purpose of making a medical diagnosis.

Yes

The device is described as a "software package" that processes images and generates result volumes. There is no mention of accompanying hardware components being part of the device itself.

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

Here's why:

  • IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostics are medical devices intended for use in vitro for the examination of specimens, including blood and tissue donations, derived from the human body, solely or principally for the purpose of providing information concerning a physiological or pathological state, or a congenital abnormality, or to determine the safety and compatibility with potential recipients, or to monitor therapeutic measures.
  • Device Function: The syngo.CT Neuro Perfusion software processes images or volumes reconstructed from continuously acquired CT data after the injection of contrast media. It analyzes this imaging data to generate parameters related to brain perfusion.
  • No Specimen Examination: The device does not examine biological specimens (like blood, urine, or tissue samples) in vitro. Its input is imaging data acquired in vivo from the patient.

Therefore, while it's a medical device used for diagnosis, it falls under the category of imaging software rather than an In Vitro Diagnostic.
