The document describes standard CT imaging and reconstruction techniques, including iterative reconstruction (iTRIM) and various software features, but none explicitly mention or imply the use of AI or ML. The focus is on image acquisition, reconstruction, and post-processing using conventional algorithms.
No
The device is described as producing cross-sectional images for diagnosis, not for treating any condition.
Yes
The device is described as producing "images and results ... used by a trained physician as an aid in diagnosis."
No
The device description explicitly states it is a "Computed Tomography X-ray System" which features a "continuously rotating tube-detector system." This indicates the device includes significant hardware components beyond just software.
Based on the provided information, the Siemens SOMATOM Perspective system is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic) device.
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use clearly states that the system is for producing cross-sectional images of the body using X-ray transmission data. It also mentions post-processing features that operate on DICOM images and a reconstruction algorithm for cardiac imaging. The images and results are used by a physician as an aid in diagnosis.
- Device Description: The device is described as a Computed Tomography X-ray System.
- Lack of IVD Characteristics: IVD devices are used to examine specimens derived from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue) to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening. The SOMATOM Perspective directly images the patient's body using X-rays, it does not analyze biological samples.
Therefore, the SOMATOM Perspective falls under the category of a medical imaging device, not an In Vitro Diagnostic device.
N/A
Intended Use / Indications for Use
The Siemens SOMATOM Perspective system is 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.
In addition the SOMATOM Perspective is able to produce additional image planes and analysis results by executing optional post-processing features, which operate on DICOM images.
For cardiac imaging, which is an option on the system, a new reconstruction algorithm (iTRIM - Itemporal Resolution Improvement Method) is used. iTRIM improves the temporal resolution of cardiac CT images compared to conventional cardiac CT image reconstruction. Actual results obtained with iTRIM can vary depending on the particular clinical situation.
The images and results delivered by the SOMATOM Perspective can be used by a trained physician as an aid in diagnosis. (*spiral planes: the axial planes resulting from the continuous rotation of detectors and x-ray tube, and the simultaneous translation of the patient.)

- Summary of Technical Characteristics of the Subject Device as 7. Compared with the Predicate Device:
SOMATOM Perspective configured with software version SOMARIS/5 VC30 syngo® CT VC30-easylQ version does not have significant changes in materials, energy source, or technological characteristics when compared to the predicate devices. Both the subiect device and predicate devices are computed tomography scanners that support various visualization and evaluation tools. The intended use and fundamental scientific technology remain unchanged from the predicate devices; therefore Siemens believes that they are substantially equivalent to the predicate devices. Table 2 below provides a comparison of the primary features of the subject device in comparison to the predicate device.

Summary
Performance tests were conducted to test the functionality of the SOMATOM Perspective 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 Perspective configured with software version SOMARIS/5 VC30 synqo® 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 Perspective (K113287) and SOMATOM Perspective 16&32 (K133590) are 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.
