No
The document describes image processing and guidance features but does not mention AI, ML, or related terms. The performance studies focus on validation of specific software features and image quality improvements, not on the performance metrics typically associated with AI/ML models.
No.
The device is described as medical software for viewing, manipulating, and storing medical images for diagnostic and post-processing purposes, and to assist physicians in diagnosis and treatment planning, rather than directly treating a condition.
Yes
The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" and "Device Description" sections explicitly state that the software is used for "diagnostic image viewing and post processing" and is "medical diagnostic software". Furthermore, it is intended to "assist the physician in diagnosis, treatment control" and "evaluation of digital radiographic examinations, including diagnosis and/or treatment planning."
No
The device description explicitly states that the software can be deployed on independent hardware and is designed to work with various imaging systems (digital radiographic, fluoroscopic, interventional, and angiographic systems), indicating it is not solely software but interacts with and is dependent on hardware components.
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 taken from the human body, such as blood, urine, or tissue, to detect diseases, conditions, or infections.
- Device's intended use: The syngo Application Software is described as medical software for viewing, manipulating, and processing medical images and data from imaging modalities like angiography, fluoroscopy, and radiography. It is used for diagnostic image viewing, post-processing, and image-guided procedures.
- Lack of mention of biological samples: The description focuses entirely on image processing and analysis, with no mention of analyzing biological samples.
Therefore, the syngo Application Software falls under the category of medical imaging software, not In Vitro Diagnostics.

Image /page/8/Picture/0 description: The image shows the word "SIEMENS" in a sans-serif font. The word is written in a light blue color. A black line is present underneath the word.
Risk management is ensured via a hazard analysis, which is used to identify potential hazards. These potential hazards are controlled via software development, verification and validation testing. To minimize electrical hazards, Siemens adheres to recognized and established industry practice, and all equipment is subject to final performance testing. Furthermore the operators are health care professionals familiar with and responsible for the evaluating and post processing of medical images.
10. Conclusion as to Substantial Equivalence:
The predicate device was cleared based on non-clinical supportive information and clinical images and data. Similar non-clinical test results demonstrate that syngo Application Software acceptance criteria are adequate for the intended use of the device. The comparison of technological characteristic, non-clinical performance data, clinical images, and software validation data demonstrates that the subject device is as safe, and effective when compared to the predicate device that is currently marketed for the same intended use.
