No
The document describes image processing and segmentation using "body part recognition algorithms already available in the FDA-cleared Base Tools," but does not mention AI, ML, or deep learning. The focus is on expanding existing functionalities and workflows.
No
This device is medical imaging software used by professionals for reading, interpreting, reporting, and treatment planning, but it does not directly provide therapy or treatment.
Yes
The device is medical imaging software intended to provide tools to aid medical imaging professionals in "reading, interpreting, reporting, and treatment planning." It performs tasks like "liver and peripheral organ segmentation, and tumor segmentation," which are fundamentally diagnostic in nature, even if it is not explicitly stated as enabling "primary diagnostic interpretation" for all image types.
Yes
The device is described as "medical application software running on Windows standalone and server/client configuration installed on a commercial general-purpose Windows-compatible computer." It processes DICOM images from various medical devices but does not include any hardware components itself.
Based on the provided text, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostics are tests performed on samples such as blood, urine, or tissue that have been taken from the human body to detect diseases or other conditions.
- Device Function: The description clearly states that Synapse 3D Liver and Kidney Analysis is medical imaging software that processes and analyzes medical images (DICOM compliant images from modalities like CT, MR, etc.). It aids in reading, interpreting, reporting, and treatment planning based on these images.
- No Biological Samples: There is no mention of the device interacting with or analyzing biological samples from the patient. Its input is image data, not biological specimens.
Therefore, the device falls under the category of medical imaging software, not In Vitro Diagnostics.

Device Description
Synapse 3D Liver and Kidney Analysis (V4.0) (this submission) is updated software of previously-cleared Synapse 3D Liver Analysis (cleared by CDRH via K110186 on 04/07, 2011) with expanded IFU and revised device name. The new feature in Synapse 3D Liver and Kidney Analysis (V4.0) are Kidney Analysis (CT) function and Liver Analysis (MR).
Synapse 3D Liver and Kidney Analysis is medical application software running on Windows standalone and server/client configuration installed on a commercial general-purpose Windowscompatible computer. It offers software tools which can be used by trained professionals, such as radiologists, clinicians or general practitioners to interpret medical images obtained from various medical devices, to create reports, or to develop treatment plans.
Synapse 3D Liver and Kidney Analysis is an optional software module that works with Synapse 3D Base Tools (cleared by CDRH via K120361 on 04/06/2012) which is connected through DICOM standard to medical devices such as CT, MR. CR, US, NM, PT, XA, etc. and to a PACS system storing data generated by these medial devices, and it retrieves image data via network communication based on the DICOM standard. The retrieved image data are stored on the local disk managed by Synapse 3D Base Tools, and the associated information of the image data is registered in the database and is used for display, image processing, analysis, etc. Synapse 3D Liver and Kidney Analysis can handle images of CT and MR. The software can display the images on a display monitor, or printed them on a hardcopy using a DICOM printer or a Windows printer.
The liver and kidney analysis tools both segment the organs, peripheral organs and vessels using similar body part recognition algorithms already available in the FDA-cleared Base Tools (K120361) and the Liver Analysis (CT) (K110186). The technical characteristics and principles of operations are described in details in the Device Description section, which includes the Liver Analysis (CT and MR) and Kidney Analysis (CT). Based on the cleared functions, Synapse 3D Liver and Kidney Analysis enhances the custom workflows and UI to improve the usability.
Synapse 3D Liver and Kidney Analysis with Synapse 3D Base Tools can be integrated with Fujifilm's Synapse PACS, and can be used as a part of a Synapse system. Synapse 3D Liver and Kidney Analysis also can be integrated with Fujifilm's Synapse Cardiovascular for cardiology purposes. In summary, this 510(k) submission introduces the Synapse 3D Liver and Kidney Analysis with the added capability of performing Liver (MR) and Kidney (CT) Analysis.
