More Information

Not Found

No
The document describes standard CT imaging technology and software features without mentioning AI or ML. The listed software features are typical for CT systems and do not inherently indicate AI/ML use.

No.
The device is used to produce cross-sectional images of the body, which aids in diagnosis rather than directly treating a condition.

Yes

Explanation: The device creates "cross-sectional images of the body by computer reconstruction of x-ray transmission data," which are used by medical professionals to diagnose various conditions.

No

The device description explicitly states it is a "Computed Tomography X-ray System" which is a hardware device. The software described is a component of this hardware system, not a standalone software-only medical device.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly states that the device is used to "produce cross-sectional images of the body by computer reconstruction of x-ray transmission data." This describes an imaging device used for diagnostic purposes on the patient's body, not for testing samples in vitro (outside the body).
  • Device Description: The description confirms it's a "Computed Tomography X-ray System," which is an imaging modality.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of analyzing biological samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.), reagents, or any other components typically associated with in vitro diagnostics.

In summary, the SOMATOM Scope and SOMATOM Scope Power are medical imaging devices, not in vitro diagnostic devices.

Intended Use / Indications for Use

The SOMATOM Scope and SOMATOM Scope Power are intended to produce cross-sectional images of the body by computer reconstruction of x-ray transmission data from either the same axial plane taken at different angles or spiral planes" taken at different angles.

(*spiral planes: the axial planes resulted from the continuous rotation of detectors and x-ray tube, and the simultaneous translation of the patient.)

This submission contains performance data to demonstrate continued conformance with special controls for medical devices containing software. Non clinical tests were conducted for the SOMATOM Scope/Scope Power configured with software version SOMARIS/5 VC30 syngo® CT VC30easylQ version during product development. The modifications described in this Premarket Notification were supported with verification/validation and performance testing.

The Risk analysis was completed and risk control implemented to mitigate identified hazards. The testing results supports that all the software specifications have met the acceptance criteria. Testing for verification and validation of the device was found acceptable to support the claims of substantial equivalence.

Software Verification and Validation

Software Documentation for a Moderate Level of Concern software per FDA's Guidance Document "Guidance for the Content of Premarket Submissions for Software Contained in Medical Devices" issued on May 11, 2005 is also included as part of this submission.

Summary

Performance tests were conducted to test the functionality of the SOMATOM Scope/Scope Power configured with software version SOMARIS/5 VC30 syngo® CT VC30-easylQ version. These tests have been performed to test the ability of the included features of the subject device. The results of these tests demonstrate that the subject device performs as intended. The result of all conducted testing was found acceptable to support the claim of substantial equivalence.

9. General Safety and Effectiveness Concerns:

The device labeling contains instructions for use and any necessary cautions and warnings, to provide for safe and effective use of the device. Risk management is ensured via a hazard analysis, which is used to identify potential hazards. These potential hazards are controlled during development, verification and validation testing. To minimize electrical, mechanical, and radiation hazards, Siemens adheres to recognized and established industry practice and standards.

10. Conclusion as to Substantial Equivalence:

The SOMATOM Scope/Scope Power configured with software version SOMARIS/5 VC30 syngo® CT VC30-easylQ version has the same intended use and comparable indication for use as the predicate devices. The technological characteristics such as image acquisition, operating platform, and image manipulation are similar to the predicate devices.

The predicate devices were cleared based on non-clinical supportive information and clinical images. The results of these tests demonstrate that the SOMATOM Scope/Scope Power (K140912) is adequate for the intended use. The comparison of technological characteristics, non-clinical performance data, and software validation demonstrates that the subject device is as safe and effective when compared to the predicate devices that are currently marketed for the same intended use.
