More Information

Not Found

No
The document explicitly states "Mentions AI, DNN, or ML: Not Found" and the device description focuses on traditional image processing and analysis tools. There is no mention of AI/ML in the intended use, device description, or performance studies.

No
The device is described as software for analysis, planning, and simulation, not for directly treating a condition or disease. Its output is to be interpreted by trained practitioners, supporting diagnosis and planning rather than providing therapy itself.

Yes
The "Intended Use" section states that WillCeph is intended "to aid in cephalometric analysis, orthodontic treatment planning and case follow-up." Additionally, the "Device Description" mentions "Diagnosis" as one of its functions. These directly indicate a diagnostic purpose.

Yes

The device description explicitly states "WillCeph is a software device" and details its functionalities as software features. The performance studies summary also focuses on software verification and validation, without mentioning any associated hardware components.

Based on the provided information, WillCeph 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.
  • WillCeph's Function: WillCeph is a software device that processes and analyzes medical images (X-rays) and patient data. It aids in diagnosis, planning, and follow-up based on these images and data, not on samples taken from the body.
  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly states it's for capturing, storing, presenting patient images and radiographs, and aiding in cephalometric analysis and treatment planning. This is image-based and data-based analysis, not analysis of biological samples.

Therefore, WillCeph falls under the category of a medical device, specifically a software medical device, but not an In Vitro Diagnostic device.

§ 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 Myoung-Joon Lee:

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.
