The document describes a medical image viewing and distribution software with standard viewing and collaboration tools. There is no mention of AI or ML capabilities for image analysis, diagnosis, or workflow optimization. The performance studies focus on image quality validation, not AI/ML performance metrics.
No.
The device is described as medical image viewing and information distribution software for diagnosis, review, communication, and reporting, not for providing therapy.
Yes
The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" section explicitly states that the software is used for "diagnosis, review, communication, and reporting of DICOM and non-DICOM data." It also specifies that "Display monitors used for reading medical images for diagnostic purposes must comply with the applicable regulatory approvals and quality control requirements." This indicates its role in diagnostic processes, although it also cautions against using it for primary interpretation of lossy compressed mammography and digitized film screen images.
Yes
The device is described as "Vitrea View software" and a "web-based, cross-platform, zero-footprint enterprise image viewer solution". While it relies on external hardware (computers, tablets, smartphones, and FDA-cleared displays for diagnostic use), the device itself is presented solely as software for viewing and distributing medical images and information. The description focuses on software features and architecture.
Based on the provided information, the Vitrea View software is not an In Vitro Diagnostic (IVD) device.
Here's why:
- IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostics are devices intended for use in the collection, preparation, and examination of specimens taken from the human body (such as blood, urine, or tissue) to provide information for diagnostic purposes.
- Vitrea View's Function: The Vitrea View software is a medical image viewing and information distribution system. It accesses, displays, and distributes medical images and related patient information. It does not interact with or analyze biological specimens.
- Intended Use: The intended use clearly states it's for "medical image viewing and information distribution" for "diagnosis, review, communication, and reporting of DICOM and non-DICOM data." This is focused on interpreting images, not analyzing biological samples.
Therefore, the Vitrea View software falls under the category of medical image management and viewing software, not In Vitro Diagnostics.
N/A
Intended Use / Indications for Use
Vitrea View software is a medical image viewing and information distribution that provides access, through the internet and within the enterprise to multi-modality softcopy medical images (including mammography and digital breast tomosynthesis), reports, and other patient-related information. This data is hosted within disparate archives and repositories for diagnosis, review, communication, and reporting of DICOM and non-DICOM data.
Lossy compressed mammography images and digitized film screen images must not be reviewed for primary image interpretations. Mammographic images may only be interpreted using an FDA cleared display that meets technical specifications reviewed and accepted by FDA or displays accepted by the appropriate regulatory agency for the country in which it is used.
Display monitors used for reading medical images for diagnostic purposes must comply with the applicable regulatory approvals and quality control requirements for their use and maintenance.
Vitrea View software is indicated for use by qualified healthcare professionals including, but not restricted to. radiologists, non-radiology specialists, physicians and technologists.
When accessing Vitrea View software from a mobile device, images viewed are for informational purposes only and not intended for diagnostic use.

Mammography Image Quality Validation:
This validation was a multi-reader, multi-case test with four experienced radiologists.
Fifty studies were chosen randomly from existing patient studies obtained over a two-day time-frame at the designated Breast Imaging center.
The radiologists were asked to rate the image quality equivalence of the Vitrea View software on a scale of 1 to 3 compared to the McKesson system for:
- Visualization of the adipose and fibroglandular tissue
- Visualization of the breast tissue and underlying pectoralis muscle
- Image contrast for differentiation of subtle tissue density differences
- Sharpness, assessment of the edges of fine linear structures, tissue borders and benign calcifications
- Tissue visibility at the skin line
- Artifacts due to image processing, detector failure and other external factors to the breast
- Overall clinical image quality

Fifty studies were chosen randomly from existing patient studies obtained over a two-day time-frame at the designated Breast Imaging center. The radiologists were asked to rate the image quality equivalence of the Vitrea View software on a scale of 1 to 3 compared to the McKesson system for:
-
- Visualization of the adipose and fibroglandular tissue
-
- Visualization of the breast tissue and underlying pectoralis muscle
- Image contrast for differentiation of subtle tissue density differences 3.
- Sharpness, assessment of the edges of fine linear structures, tissue borders and benign 4. calcifications
-
- Tissue visibility at the skin line
- Artifacts due to image processing, detector failure and other external factors to the breast 6.
- Overall clinical image quality 7.
The radiologists found all of the images displayed met the clinical equivalence for diagnostic quality when displayed using the Vitrea View software as compared to the same studies displayed using the McKesson system.
b) Digital Breast Tomosynthesis Image Quality Validation
The validation was a multi-reader, multi-case test with three experienced radiologists reviewing Digital Breast Tomosynthesis Image SOP class studies. The validation used the already cleared Phillips Intellispace Radiology system (K111804) in association with Barco Nio 5MP MDCG-5221 monitors (K133984), side by side with the Vitrea View software displayed on Barco Mammo Tomosynthesis 5 MegaPixel MDMG-5221 monitors (K161229).
Fifty studies were chosen randomly from existing patient studies obtained at the designated Breast Imaging center. The radiologists were asked to rate the image quality equivalence of the Vitrea View software on a scale of 1 to 3 compared to the Phillips Intellispace Radiology system for:

Substantial Equivalence Analysis Conclusion:
Vital Images believes the Vitrea View software has a similar intended use, indications for use, principle of operation, and technological characteristics as the legally marketed, predicate device VitreaView (K150738). The added feature to allow for viewing of mammography for review and diagnosis is substantially equivalent to the feature in the reference device, McKesson Radiology, which was cleared by the FDA under K140909. Additionally, the feature to allow for viewing of digital breast tomosynthesis for review and diagnosis is substantially equivalent to the Phillips Intellispace Radiology system, which was cleared by the FDA under K111804.
Furthermore, the verification and validation testing performed demonstrate the subject device is as safe and effective as the predicate and reference devices and does not raise any different questions of safety and effectiveness. Therefore, Vital believes the addition of the support for diagnostic viewing of mammographic images and digital breast tomography images in the Vitrea View software does not alter the fundamental scientific technology, safety or intended use of the device.
Any noted minor differences have been explained and do not raise any different questions of safety or effectiveness when used as labeled. The implemented design controls, risk management activities, labeling, and performed verification and validation tests demonstrate the safety and efficacy of the subject device. Based on the comparison information provided above, Vital Images believes the subject device should be found substantially equivalent to the predicate device.
