The summary describes a standard PACS/RIS/CIS system for managing medical images and workflow. There is no mention of AI, ML, or any features that would typically indicate the use of such technologies for analysis or interpretation.
No
The software system is intended for managing and reporting diagnostic procedures and supporting the diagnostic process, not for providing direct therapy or treatment.
Yes
The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" section explicitly states that SUITESTENSA is "intended to support and assist trained professionals in the diagnostic process".
Yes
The device description explicitly states "SUITESTENSA Software is a RIS/CIS/PACS software suite" and lists various software modules. While it interacts with hardware (diagnostic instruments, displays, CD/DVD burners), the device itself, as described, is the software system. The performance studies also focus on software verification and validation.
Based on the provided information, no, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use clearly states that SUITESTENSA is for the management and reporting of diagnostic-instrumental procedures in Cardiology and Radiology departments. It supports the acquisition, storage, viewing, processing, and reporting of imaging studies and ECG traces. This focuses on the interpretation of images and physiological signals, not on the analysis of biological samples (like blood, urine, tissue, etc.) which is the hallmark of IVDs.
- Device Description: The description details a software suite for managing clinical workflow, archiving, reporting, and information systems within Radiology and Cardiology departments. This aligns with a PACS/RIS system, not an IVD.
- Input Modalities: The input modalities are imaging studies (Cardiology, mammography, X-Ray, CT, MR, US, Cathlab, Echo Cardiology) and ECG traces. These are instrumental data, not biological samples.
- Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of analyzing biological samples, reagents, or any of the typical components or processes associated with in vitro diagnostics.
In summary, SUITESTENSA is a medical imaging and information management system, not a device used for testing biological samples outside the body.

V. INDICATIONS FOR USE
SUITESTENSA is an integrated software system for the management and reporting of diagnostic-instrumental procedures in Cardiology and Radiology departments. It is intended to support and assist trained professionals in the diagnostic process, through the acquisition, storage, viewing, processing and reporting of cardiology and radiology imaging studies and ECG traces. SUITESTENSA also allows transfer of images to CD/DVD.
SUITESTENSA may be used also for the display, manipulation, and interpretation of lossless compressed or non-compressed mammography images that have been received in the DICOM For Presentation format and displayed on FDA cleared, DICOM compatible displays for mammography.
SUITESTENSA is intended to be used by qualified professionals, i.e. doctors (radiologists, cardiologists, etc.), ward technicians, paramedics, administrative personnel, specialist ward doctors.
VI. COMPARISON OF TECHNOLOGICAL CHARACTERISTICS WITH THE PREDICATE DEVICE
SUITESTENSA is a software suite consisting of different modules that allows a user to customize suite capabilities to their particular needs. SUITESTENSA is used for acquisition, storage and viewing of cardiology and radiology images with additional capabilities for workflow management, transfer to CD/DVD, and image distribution to a diagnostic workstation.
SUITESTENSA is substantially equivalent to the FUJIFILM Synapse PACS 5.1.0 system, since both are used for acquisition, storage, viewing and processing of diagnostic images with additional capabilities for workflow management, transfer to CD/DVD, and image distribution to a diagnostic workstation.
Both the devices offer intended uses for soft-copy image diagnostic reporting as they can be configured with one or more of the following application:
Radiology Application
- Basic X-Ray, CT. MR. US Reporting .
- Mammography Reporting
- . MR/CT 3D Post Processing
- " Vascular Analysis
Cardiology Application
- Cathlab Image Reporting ■
- Echo Cardiology Image Reporting
- ECG Waveform Reporting .
6
General Application
With a focus on safe image management for diagnostic reporting, the devices are used for the following general application, not directly used in the clinical practice, but necessary for the diagnostic clinical practice:
- Reliable and Safe Data Archiving ■
- . Integration process between the RIS/CIS modules and the PACS module
At a high level the subject and predicate devices are based on the following same technological and functional elements:
- . Images and data communication in both the devices are in compliance with the HL7 and DICOM Standard as well the integration workflow.
- O/S Technology Platform Server are Windows Based. ●
- Both devices support ORACLE DB Engine and support advanced high level storage system that guarantee business continuity and data recovery
- . Client application may be run over Internet Browser User Interface in order to guarantee broader access
- A set of basic and advanced image display and processing function are available . such as
7
The following technological differences exist between the subject and predicate devices:
- The client platform for the predicate devices is platform independent while the subject devices supports also Desktop Client for the Cardiology Domain
- Use of a different DB Engine Option ( MS SOL is not supported by the predicate device)
- -Support in the Multi-Modal Fusion Image Processing
- Support for analysis and quantification of cardiovascular digital images – (not available in the predicate devices but in a reference device)
VII. PERFORMANCE DATA
The following performance data were provided in support of the substantial equivalence determination. The software for this device was considered as a "moderate" level of concern, since a failure or latent flaw in the software could indirectly result in minor injury to the patient through incorrect or delayed information or through the action of the care provider.
Software Verification and Validation Testing
Software verification and validation testing was conducted as recommended by FDA's Guidance for Industry and FDA Staff, "Guidance for the Content of Premarket Submissions for Software Contained in Medical Devices" and in accordance with ISO 62304, Medical Device Software - Software Lifecycle Process.
Software verification and validation was performed to ensure it met all the specification requirements and conformance testing.
VIII. CONCLUSIONS
Based on the results of the software verification testing and the proposed Indications for Use, the SUITESTENSA software is considered substantially equivalent to the FUJIFILM Synapse PACS 5.1.0 system.
