Intended Use
HERMES Medical Imaging suite that provides software applications used to process, display, analyze and manage nuclear medicine and other medical imaging data transferred from other workstation or acquisition stations.
Device Description
The base product design of Hermes Medical Imaging Suite v5.7 is the same as for the Hermes Medical Imaging Suite v5.6 (K153056). The following modules have been added in this applicatio to Hybrid Viewer NM Processing: Colonic Transit, Remnant Liver, Parathyroid, Dosimetry, Classic DMSA, Oesophageal Transit/Reflux, HIDA, Salivary Gland, Bone3Phase Analysis and Uniformity.
More Information

No
The summary describes standard image processing and analysis modules for nuclear medicine data. There is no mention of AI, ML, or related concepts, and the performance studies focus on comparisons with previous versions and manual calculations, not on AI/ML model performance metrics.

No
The device is a software suite used to process, display, analyze, and manage medical imaging data; it does not directly treat or prevent a disease or condition.

Yes

Explanation: The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" states that the device provides "software applications used to process, display, analyze and manage nuclear medicine and other medical imaging data." This processing and analysis of medical imaging data is inherently for diagnostic purposes. Additionally, the "Device Description" lists various modules like "Colonic Transit, Remnant Liver, Parathyroid, Dosimetry, Classic DMSA, Oesophageal Transit/Reflux, HIDA, Salivary Gland, Bone3Phase Analysis and Uniformity" which are used to evaluate specific medical conditions, further supporting its role as a diagnostic device.

Yes

The device is described as a "software suite" and its function is to process, display, analyze, and manage medical imaging data. There is no mention of any accompanying hardware components that are part of the device itself. The data is transferred from other workstations or acquisition stations, implying the software operates on existing hardware infrastructure.

Based on the provided information, this device is not an In Vitro Diagnostic (IVD).

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly states that the software processes, displays, analyzes, and manages medical imaging data transferred from other workstations or acquisition stations. This is focused on interpreting images of the body, not on analyzing samples taken from the body (like blood, urine, tissue, etc.).
  • Device Description: The description reinforces that it's a software suite for processing and analyzing imaging data.
  • Input Imaging Modality: The input is "nuclear medicine and other medical imaging data," which are images of the body.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of analyzing biological samples, reagents, or any other components typically associated with IVD devices.

IVD devices are specifically designed to examine specimens derived from the human body to provide information for diagnostic purposes. This device operates on images of the body itself.

Summary of Performance Studies

The following comparative tests have been made.

  • Hybrid Recon in Hermes Medical Imaging Suite v5.7 has been compared to Hybrid Recon in Medical Imaging Suite v5.6 (K153056). The comparison included 10 subjects, where each subject went through stress&rest myocardial SPECT scan with Tc99m tetrofosmin. The QPS parameters SSS, Stress volume, Stress Area, Stress Defect Area, SRS, Rest Volume, Rest Area, Rest Defect Area were calculated with the Cedar Sinai Application and compared between the applications (Pearson correlation coefficient r between 0.96 to 0.99).
  • Hybrid Recon in Hermes Medical Imaging Suite v5.7 has been compared to Hybrid Recon in Medical Imaging Suite v5.6 (K153056). The comparison included studies on Jaszczak phantom and IEC Phantom. The results on the Jaszak Phantom showed an average error between the reconstructed and true activity concentration of -3.5 % with Hybrid Recon in Medical Imaging Suite v5.6 and -1.1 % with Hybrid Recon in Medical Imaging Suite v5.7. The results on the IEC Phantom show that the error of the reconstructed activity concentration is around 5% when the target is large enough. In small targets the partial volume effect lowers the accuracy as expected.
  • Classic DMSA in HV NM Processing/Hermes Medical Imaging Suite v5.7 has been compared to the classic DMSA application in Medical Imaging Suite v5.3 (K153056). For relative function values, the maximum% difference between Classic and HybridViewer is

§ 892.1200 Emission computed tomography system.

(a)
Identification. An emission computed tomography system is a device intended to detect the location and distribution of gamma ray- and positron-emitting radionuclides in the body and produce cross-sectional images through computer reconstruction of the data. This generic type of device may include signal analysis and display equipment, patient and equipment supports, radionuclide anatomical markers, component parts, and accessories.(b)
Classification. Class II.

Dear Joakim Arwidson:

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. 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.
