Intended Use
The Emprint™ Procedure Planning Application is a stand-alone software product that allows physicians to visualize and compare CT imaging data. The display, annotation, and volume rendering of medical images aids intervention planning for video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS) and ablation procedures using the Emprint Ablation System. The software is not intended for diagnosis.
Device Description
The Emprint™ Procedure Planning Application is a stand-alone software product that is intended to be used to view and compare CT image sets. The system is composed of image review and planning software and a Windows-based computer. The system includes tools that provide 3-D rendering of the image sets, pre-procedure planning of interventional thermal ablation procedures, and post-procedure review of interventional thermal ablation procedures. The Emprint™ Procedure Planning Application does not prescribe therapy and is not intended for the diagnosis or treatment of any disease. It does not control or alter the functions or parameters of any medical device and has no direct patient contact.
More Information

No
The document explicitly states "Mentions AI, DNN, or ML: Not Found" and the description focuses on standard image processing and visualization tools.

No
The device explicitly states it "does not prescribe therapy" and is "not intended for the diagnosis or treatment of any disease." It is a planning and visualization tool.

No
The 'Intended Use / Indications for Use' and 'Device Description' sections explicitly state that "The software is not intended for diagnosis" and "is not intended for the diagnosis or treatment of any disease."

No

The device description explicitly states the system is composed of image review and planning software and a Windows-based computer, indicating it includes hardware components.

Based on the provided information, the Emprint™ Procedure Planning Application is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use explicitly states that the software is for visualizing and comparing CT imaging data to aid in intervention planning for surgical and ablation procedures. It specifically states, "The software is not intended for diagnosis."
  • Device Description: The description reinforces that the software is for viewing, comparing, and planning based on medical images. It also states, "The Emprint™ Procedure Planning Application does not prescribe therapy and is not intended for the diagnosis or treatment of any disease."
  • Nature of IVDs: IVDs are devices used to examine specimens (like blood, urine, tissue) taken from the human body to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening. This software operates on medical images, not biological specimens.

Therefore, the Emprint™ Procedure Planning Application falls under the category of medical image processing software used for planning and visualization, not for in vitro diagnostic testing.

§ 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)

Device Description

The Emprint™ Procedure Planning Application is a stand-alone software product that is intended to be used to view and compare CT image sets. The system is composed of

4

image review and planning software and a Windows-based computer. The system includes tools that provide 3-D rendering of the image sets, pre-procedure planning of interventional thermal ablation procedures, and post-procedure review of interventional thermal ablation procedures. The Emprint™ Procedure Planning Application does not prescribe therapy and is not intended for the diagnosis or treatment of any disease. It does not control or alter the functions or parameters of any medical device and has no direct patient contact.

Intended Use

The Emprint™ Procedure Planning Application is a stand-alone software product that allows physicians to visualize and compare CT imaging data. The display, annotation, and volume rendering of medical images aids in the intervention planning for videoassisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS) and ablation procedures using the Emprint Ablation System. The software is not intended for diagnosis.

Technological Characteristics

The Emprint™ Procedure Planning Application is a stand-alone software product installed on a Windows-based computer workstation. The system imports DICOM data from CT scanners and can display the images in standard axial, coronal, or sagittal views and render the images in 3-D views. The substantial equivalence of the Emprint™ Procedure Planning Application to the predicates is shown by similarity in intended use, indications for use, materials, and performance.

Principals of Operation

The Emprint™ Procedure Planning Application is composed of software running on a standard Windows-based computer that allows the user to import multiple DICOM compatible CT image sets, render them into 3-D and compare them. The software also provides tools to mark and measure anatomical features and to overlay anticipated thermal ablation zones as defined by the ablation tables associated with the Emprint Ablation System settings for a given type of tissue (provided in K133821 labeling and also included as an Attachment to this 510k Summary).

Performance Data

The Emprint™ Procedure Planning Application was tested in accordance with a test plan to evaluate all functions performed by the software as configured on the computer workstation. The system was tested and passed all criteria established by the design specifications and verification/validation test plans.

Substantial Equivalence Discussions

Based on the indications for use, technological characteristics, performance testing, and comparison to the predicates, the Emprint™ Procedure Planning Application has been

5

shown to be substantially equivalent to the predicate devices identified in this submission, and does not present any new issues of safety or effectiveness.
