No
The description focuses on standard image acquisition, processing, and reconstruction techniques for PET data, and explicitly states the use of "well tried hardware components and software techniques." There is no mention of AI, ML, or related concepts.
No
This device is for acquiring, processing, and displaying images for diagnostic purposes, not for treating diseases or conditions.
Yes
The device "ECAT Scintron PET" is designed to acquire, process, and display images to determine various metabolic and physiologic functions within the human body, which is a diagnostic purpose. It specifically states its use is for "determining various metabolic and physiologic functions within the human body", which aligns with diagnostic imaging.
No
The device description explicitly states that the software is "only available as package and in combination with the computer hardware" and that it "controls the motion of the patient handling system, the transmission sources and septa for 2D scans with the scanner," indicating it is an integrated hardware and software system, not software-only.
Based on the provided text, the 'ECAT Scintron PET' integrated workstation is not an In Vitro Diagnostic (IVD) device.
Here's why:
- IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostics are devices used to examine specimens taken from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue) to provide information about a person's health.
- ECAT Scintron PET Function: The description clearly states that the device acquires data by "measuring the distribution of injected positron emitting radiopharmaceutical in humans." This is an in vivo process, meaning it happens within the living body, not on a specimen taken from the body.
- Purpose: The purpose is to determine metabolic and physiologic functions within the human body, not to analyze a sample outside the body.
Therefore, the 'ECAT Scintron PET' is a medical device used for imaging and analysis within the patient, not an IVD.

Device Description
The 'ECAT SCINTRON PET' is designed to replace the integrated workstation (advanced computational system) of the legally market devices ECAT EXACT PET System and ECAT ACCEL PET scanner.
The 'ECAT SCINTRON PET' integrated workstation is proposed to perform simultaneous 2D or 3D acquisitions, image reconstruction, processing and analysis of data received from ECAT Positron Emission Tomographs of CTI PET Systems. In addition it controls the motion of the patient handling system, the transmission sources and septa for 2D scans with the scanner.
The 'ECAT SCINTRON PET' is used to acquire data from whole body positron emission tomography system and providing 3D volume measurements of metabolic and physiologic processes.
The software is designed to run only on 'ECAT SCINTRON PET' integrated workstations. The software is only available as package and in combination with the computer hardware. Some software modules not needed for the basic usage are optional.
The development processes of the software and hardware are based on the legally market device, name SCINTRON, K101013. The 'ECAT SCINTRON PET' uses industry standard and well tried hardware components and software techniques which ensures long term support.

Summary of Performance Studies (study type, sample size, AUC, MRMC, standalone performance, key results)
Generally the CTI PET scanner itself, including its specification reqarding performance is not modified. The usage of the same coincidence board and gantry communication board (including patient handling system) is necessary.
As in the OEM integrated workstation, the computers are divided into an acquisition and an evaluation part. The acquisition is done by a powerful industrial VMEbus PowerPC with a real-time operating system OS9. This makes the acquisition safe and stable. For processing and viewing a state-of-the-art Windows PC with a multi core processor, at least 3 GByte RAM modules as well as state-of-the-art graphical interfaces and network components is used. Both computers, the PowerPC and the PC communicate via a TCP/IP interface, same as in the original integrated workstation (ACSSUN).
All test results are, in opinion of MiE GmbH, that the 'ECAT SCINTRON PET' is substantially equivalent to the predicated devices integrated workstation.
