Intended Use
cvi42 vascular analysis add-on is an image analysis software package add-on for evaluating CT and MR images of blood vessels. Combining digital image processing and visualization tools such as multiplaner reconstruction (MPR), thin/think maximum intensity projection (MIP) thin and think, inverted MIP thin and think, volume rendering technique (VRT), curved planner reformation, processing tools such as bone removal (based on both single energy and dual energy) table removal and evaluation tools (vessel centerline calculation, lumen calculation, stenosis calculation) and reporting tools (lesion location, lesion characteristics) and key images), the software package is designed to support the physician in conforming the presence or absence of physician identified lesion in blood vessels and evaluation, documentation and follow up of any such lesions. It shall be used by qualified medical professionals, experienced in examining and evaluating cardiovascular CT or MR images, for the purpose of obtaining diagnostic information as part of a comprehensive diagnostic decision-making process. cvi42 is a software application that can be used as a stand-alone product or in a networked environment. The target population for the cvi42 is not restricted, however the image acquisition by a cardiac CT or MR scanner may limit the use of the device for certain sectors of the general public.
Device Description

The software can be used as a stand-alone product that can be integrated into a hospital or private practice environment. cvi42 has a graphical user interface which allows users to qualitatively and quantitatively analyze cardiac CT & MR images.
More Information

Not Found

No
The summary describes standard image processing and analysis techniques, and there is no mention of AI, ML, or related concepts.

No
The device is described as image analysis software for evaluating CT and MR images to provide diagnostic information, not to treat any condition.

Yes

The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" section explicitly states that the software is designed "to support the physician in conforming the presence or absence of physician identified lesion in blood vessels and evaluation, documentation and follow up of any such lesions" and "for the purpose of obtaining diagnostic information as part of a comprehensive diagnostic decision-making process."

Yes

The device description explicitly states that cvi42 vascular add-on is a "software application" and describes its function as analyzing images in a DICOM format. There is no mention of accompanying hardware components.

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

Here's why:

  • IVDs are used to examine specimens derived from the human body. The provided text clearly states that this device analyzes CT and MR images of blood vessels. These are medical images, not biological specimens like blood, urine, or tissue.
  • The intended use is image analysis and processing. The software is designed to help physicians evaluate and analyze existing medical images to support diagnostic decision-making. It does not perform tests on biological samples to provide diagnostic information.

Therefore, while this device is a medical device used for diagnostic purposes, it falls under the category of medical imaging software rather than an In Vitro Diagnostic.

(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)

| DEVICE | INDICATIONS FOR USE |
| iNtuition
K121916 | To receive, store, transmit, post-process, display and allow
manipulation of reports and medical images from acquisition
devices, including optical or other non-DICOM format images,
DICOM images with modality type XA, US, CR, DR, SPECT, NM
and MG, and images from volumetric medical scanning devices such
as EST, CT, PET or MRI. To provide access to images derived data
and derived images via client-server software, web browser and
mobile technology. |
| | Visualization in 2D, 3D and 4D are supported for single or multiple
datasets, or combinations thereof. Tools are provided to define and
edit paths through structures such as centerlines, which may be used
to analyze cross-sections of structures, or to provide flythrough
visualizations rendered along such a centerline. Segmentation of
regions of interest and quantitative analysis tools are provided, for
images of vasculature, pathology and morphology, including
distance, angle, volume, histogram, ratios thereof, and tracking of
quantities over time. A database is provided to track and compare
results using published comparison techniques such as RECIST and
WHO. Calcium scoring for quantification of atherosclerotic plaque
is supported. |
| | Support is provided for digital image processing to derive metadata
or new images from input image sets, for internal use or for
forwarding to other devices using the DICOM protocol. Image
processing tools are provided to extract metadata to derive
parametric images from combinations of multiple input images, such
as temporal phases, or images co-located in space but acquired with
different imaging parameters, such as different MR pulse sequences,
or different CT image parameters (e.g. dual energy). |
| | iNtuition is designed for use by healthcare professionals and is
intended to assist the physician in diagnosis, who is responsible for
making all final patient management decisions. |
| | Interpretation of mammographic images or digitized film screen
images is supported only when the software is used without
compression and with an FDA-Approved monitor that offers at least
5Mpixel resolution and meets other technical specifications
reviewed and accepted by the FDA. |
