Intended Use
The Corview software application is indicated for viewing and post-processing of cardiovascular magnetic resonance images (MRIs) to obtain Left Atrial Enhancement (LAE) quantification and visualization on a 3D model. It provides measurements of LAE within the left atrial wall. It enables: - . Importing Cardiac MRIs in DICOM format - Qualitative analysis of the cardiac MRIs using display functionality such as . panning, windowing, zooming, and navigation through series/slices and phases - . Quantitative measurement in cardiac MRIs, specifically LAE It is intended for use by qualified medical professionals experienced in examining and evaluating cardiovascular MRIs, for the purpose of obtaining diagnostic information as part of a comprehensive diagnostic decision-making process. The target population of Corview is not restricted. However image acquisition by an MRI scanner with cardiac capability may limit the use of the device for certain sectors of the general public. Corview is intended to view only cardiac magnetic resonance images acquired from an MRI scanner with cardiac capabilities. The CORVIEW software application is intended for use in the clinical setting.
Device Description
CORVIEW is an independent software solution for the segmentation and quantitative analysis of digitized cardiac magnetic resonance images (MRIs). CORVIEW operates on higher-end off-the-shelf PC or Apple computers and is compatible with Cardiac MRI digital images in DICOM format from a range of commercial MRI machine vendors. The CORVIEW software platform is also designed to process MRIs received from various modes of image exchange. CORVIEW presents a state-of-the-art method to process and quantify the extent of left atrial enhancement (LAE) within the left atrial wall by contouring and identifying the endo- and epi-cardial borders from contrast enhanced MR image sequences that have been acquired as part of a conventional cardiac MRI examination. CORVIEW is designed for the processing of 3D image datasets allowing users to produce contour models and visualizations of left atrial structure and contrast enhancement. Based on 3D-acquired datasets, a feature classification algorithm supports the calculation of LAE. From these corresponding algorithms, total percentage of enhancement can be derived. In addition, the corresponding shape of the left atrium can also be obtained.
More Information

No
The document describes image processing and quantitative analysis using algorithms, but does not explicitly mention or imply the use of AI or ML techniques.

No
The device is described as an image viewing and post-processing software for diagnostic purposes, not for active treatment or therapy.

Yes
The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" section explicitly states that the device is for "obtaining diagnostic information as part of a comprehensive diagnostic decision-making process."

Yes

The device is described as an "independent software solution" that operates on off-the-shelf computers and processes digital images. There is no mention of proprietary hardware components included with the device.

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. They are used to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening.
  • Corview's Function: Corview processes and analyzes images (MRIs) of the heart, which are acquired from the body, but the analysis is performed on the digital image data itself, not on a biological sample taken from the patient.
  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly states it's for "viewing and post-processing of cardiovascular magnetic resonance images (MRIs)" and "obtaining diagnostic information as part of a comprehensive diagnostic decision-making process." This aligns with image analysis software used in medical imaging, not IVD testing.
  • Device Description: The device description reinforces that it's "independent software solution for the segmentation and quantitative analysis of digitized cardiac magnetic resonance images (MRIs)."

Therefore, Corview falls under the category of medical image processing software, not an in vitro diagnostic device.

Description of New CORVIEW Device:

CORVIEW is an independent software solution for the segmentation and quantitative analysis of digitized cardiac magnetic resonance images (MRIs). CORVIEW operates on higher-end off-the-shelf PC or Apple computers and is compatible with Cardiac MRI digital images in DICOM format from a range of commercial MRI machine vendors. The CORVIEW software platform is also designed to process MRIs received from various modes of image exchange.

CORVIEW presents a state-of-the-art method to process and quantify the extent of left atrial enhancement (LAE) within the left atrial wall by contouring and identifying the endo- and epi-cardial borders from contrast enhanced MR image sequences that have been acquired as part of a conventional cardiac MRI examination.

applications using cardiac data obtained from standard magnetic resonance images. Features of CORVIEW are comparable to those of the predicate devices. The main differences include:

    1. The new CORVIEW quantifies the amount of contrast enhancement within the left atrial wall. The predicate Tom Tec Imaging Systems 2-D Cardiac Performance Analysis MR 1.0 device quantifies the myocardial deformation and movement of the entire heart muscle.
    1. The new CORVIEW constructs and visualizes a 3D model of the left atrium.
    1. The new CORVIEW quantifies the amount of contrast enhancement within the left atrial wall. The predicate Diagnosoft Virtue - CORE device quantifies the amount of contrast enhancement within the right and left ventricles as well as the surrounding vessels.

Testing:

Non-Clinical Performance Data Testing:

Software testing and validation were done at the code and system level according to written test protocols established before testing was conducted.

The test procedure was performed and documented. The test results were reviewed by designated technical professionals to ensure acceptability criteria were satisfied prior to the release of the software.

The results are summarized in the test summary report. The conclusion states that:

  • Verification strategies and test procedures used are appropriate
  • Software system test procedures trace to software requirements
  • All software requirements are tested or otherwise verified
  • Test results meet the required pass/fail criteria

Adverse Effects on Health:

The potential risks are identified in a risk management analysis and report and are controlled by the software development team, risk management processes, documented verification and validation processes to ensure performance to specifications, Federal Regulations, user requirements, and adherence to industry and international standards.

Risk analysis aspects were treated in the risk management report. Based on this document, the applied methods in the literature and the techniques of the product (which are considered in the risk analysis) were evaluated. No further risks were identified.

Conclusion:

The conclusions drawn from the specifications and performance testing of the new CORVIEW device demonstrate that the new CORVIEW device is at least as safe and as effective and performs as well as or better than the predicate TomTec Imaging Systems 2D Cardiac Performance Analysis MR 1.0 device, (K120135) and the Diagnosoft Virtue - CORE device (K111833). For these reasons, we believe the new CORVIEW device is substantially equivalent to the predicate devices.
