Intended Use
SIS Software is an application intended for use in the viewing, presentation of medical imaging, including different modules for image fusion, and intraoperative functional planning where the 3D output can be used with stereotactic image quided surgery or other devices for further processing and visualization. The device can be used in conjunction with other clinical methods as an aid in visualization of the subthalamic nuclei (STN).
Device Description
SIS Software is an application intended for use in the viewing, presentation and documentation of medical imaging, including different modules for image processing, image fusion, and intraoperative functional planning where the 3D output can be used with stereotactic image guided surgery or other devices for further processing and visualization. The device can be used in coniunction with other clinical methods as an aid in visualization of the subthalamic nuclei (STN). SIS Software uses machine learning and image processing to enhance standard clinical images for the visualization of the subthalamic nucleus ("STN"). The SIS Software supplements the information available through standard clinical methods, providing additional, adjunctive information to surgeons, neurologists and radiologists for use in visualization and planning stereotactic surgical procedures. SIS Software provides a patient specific, 3D anatomical model of the patient's own brain structures that supplements other clinical information to facilitate visualization in neurosurqical procedures. The software makes use of the fact that some structures in the brain are not easily visualized in 1.5T or 3T clinical MRJ, but are better visualized using high-resolution and high-contrast 7T MRI. The company's software methodology relies on a reference database of high-resolution brain images (7T MRI) and standard clinical brain images (1.5T or 3T MRI). The 7T images allow visualization of anatomical structures that are then used to find regions of interest within the brain (i.e., the STN) on a patient's clinical image. SIS visualization is incorporated in the standard clinical MR data, thereby not changing the current standard-of-care workflow protocol and does not require any additional visualization software or hardware platforms.
More Information

Yes
The device description explicitly states that "SIS Software uses machine learning and image processing".

No.
The device is used for imaging, visualization, and planning, not for directly treating a condition or disease. It aids in visualization for surgical procedures but does not perform therapy itself.

No

The device is described as an "aid in visualization" and provides "adjunctive information" for planning surgical procedures, but it explicitly states that it "supplements the information available through standard clinical methods" and does not make a diagnosis on its own. While it helps in visualizing anatomical structures, its primary role is to assist in planning rather than to identify or classify a disease state.

Yes

The device is explicitly described as "SIS Software" and its function is the viewing, presentation, and processing of medical imaging. While it can be used in conjunction with other devices (like stereotactic image guided surgery systems), the core device being described and cleared is the software itself. The description focuses on the software's algorithms, data processing, and visualization capabilities, without mentioning any accompanying hardware components that are part of the device being submitted for clearance.

Based on the provided information, 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. They are used to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening.
  • SIS Software Function: The SIS Software processes and visualizes medical imaging data (MRI) of the brain. It does not analyze samples taken from the body. Its purpose is to aid in the visualization and planning of surgical procedures based on existing imaging data.

Therefore, the SIS Software falls under the category of medical imaging software or surgical planning software, not In Vitro Diagnostics.

No
The input letter does not explicitly state that the FDA has reviewed and approved or cleared a PCCP for this specific device. The 'Control Plan Authorized (PCCP) and relevant text' section is marked 'Not Found', and no other section contains the required explicit approval language.

Description of the training set, sample size, data source, and annotation protocol

The company's software methodology relies on a reference database of high-resolution brain images (7T MRI) and standard clinical brain images (1.5T or 3T MRI). The 7T images allow visualization of anatomical structures that are then used to find regions of interest within the brain (i.e., the STN) on a patient's clinical image.

Developmental testing of the reference database was performed using 10 subject datasets that were retrospectively selected from the locked SIS reference database. For each of the selected datasets, the patient's 7T MRI and labeled structures were excluded from the dataset, such that only the corresponding clinical MRI image remained for the test. The subject machine-learning method then predicted the subthalamic nucleus (STN) on these removed datasets and this prediction was compared to the STN as segmented on the 7T image of that subject to validate the prediction when the tested subject was removed from the dataset (standard leave-one-out statistical procedure).

Description of the test set, sample size, data source, and annotation protocol

The pivotal validation testing of the subject device, including the reference database, included images from 34 subjects to validate the performance of the SIS Software. A set of 68 STNs (from 34 subjects) were scanned with both clinical MRI (1.5T and 3T) and High Field (7T) MRI. None of the 68 STNs were part of the company's database for algorithm development and none were used to optimize or design the company's software. Thus, this validation data set was completely separate from the data set that was used for development. The software development was frozen and labeled before tested on this validation set.

Summary of Performance Studies (study type, sample size, AUC, MRMC, standalone performance, key results)

Developmental testing:

  • Study Type: Developmental testing (retrospective)
  • Sample Size: 10 subject datasets
  • Key Results: The average distance between the predicted and the original (on the 7T) was 1mm, the actual size of the pixel (data resolution). The overlap between the 3D predicted and the original STN was significantly better (p

(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)
