Intended Use
A VIEW provides CT values for pulmonary tissue from CT thoracic datasets. This software can be used to support the physician quantitatively in the diagnosis, followup evaluation of CT lung tissue images by providing image segmentation of sub-structures in the left and right lung (e.g., the five lobes and airway), volumetric and structural analysis, density evaluations and reporting tools. AVIEW is also used to store, transfer, inquire and display CT data sets. A VIEW is not meant for primary image Interpretation in mammography.
Device Description
The AVIEW is a software product which can be installed on a PC. It shows images taken with the interface from various storage devices using DICOM 3.0 which is the digital image and communication standard in medicine. It also offers functions such as reading, manipulation, analyzing, post-processing, saving and sending images by using the software tools.
More Information

No
The summary describes image processing and analysis tools but does not mention AI, ML, or related terms, nor does it provide details about training or test sets typically associated with AI/ML development.

No
The device provides image analysis and reporting tools to support diagnosis and evaluation, but it does not directly treat or alleviate a medical condition.

Yes

The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" states that the software can be used "to support the physician quantitatively in the diagnosis, followup evaluation of CT lung tissue images".

Yes

The device description explicitly states "The AVIEW is a software product which can be installed on a PC." and the performance studies focus on software-related testing (Unit test, System test, DICOM test, etc.), indicating it is a software-only medical device.

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.
  • Device function: The AVIEW software processes and analyzes medical images (CT scans) of the lungs. It does not perform tests on biological samples.
  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly states that it provides CT values for pulmonary tissue from CT datasets and supports physicians in the diagnosis and evaluation of CT lung tissue images. This is image analysis, not in vitro testing.

Therefore, AVIEW falls under the category of medical image processing software, not an IVD.

§ 892.2050 Medical image management and processing system.

(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)

Dear Priscilla Chung:

We have reviewed your Section 510(k) premarket notification of intent to market the device referenced above and have determined the device is substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to legally marketed predicate devices marketed in interstate commerce prior to May 28, 1976, the enactment date of the Medical Device Amendments, or to devices that have been reclassified in accordance with the provisions of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (Act) that do not require approval of a premarket approval application (PMA). You may, therefore, market the device, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act. Although this letter refers to your product as a device, please be aware that some cleared products may instead be combination products. The 510(k) Premarket Notification Database located at https://www.accessdata.fda.gov/scripts/cdrh/cfdocs/cfpmn/pmn.cfm identifies combination product submissions. The general controls provisions of the Act include requirements for annual registration, listing of devices, good manufacturing practice, labeling, and prohibitions against misbranding and adulteration. Please note: CDRH does not evaluate information related to contract liability warranties. We remind you, however, that device labeling must be truthful and not misleading.

11. Technological Characteristics:

A VIEW is a software device that does not contact the patient, nor does it control any life sustaining devices. Results produced by the software tools are dependent on the interpretation of trained and licensed radiologists, clinicians and referring physicians as an adjunctive to standard radiology practices for diagnosis.

12. Performance Data:

Verification, validation and testing activities were conducted to establish the performance, functionality and reliability characteristics of the modified devices. The device passed all of the tests based on pre-determined Pass/Fail criteria. A summary of the conducted tests is as below:

  • । Unit test
  • System test -
  • DICOM test -
  • -LAA analysis test
  • LAA size analysis test -
  • Airway wall measurement test -
  • -Reliability test
  • CT image compatibility test -

13. Conclusion:

The new device and predicate device are substantially equivalent in the areas of technical characteristics, general functions, application, and intended use. The new device does not introduce a fundamentally new scientific technology, and the nonclinical tests demonstrate that the device is safe and effective. Therefore, it is our opinion that the AVIEW described in this submission is substantially equivalent to the predicate device.
