No
The document describes a PET/CT system with hardware improvements (SiPMs) and standard image processing software, but does not mention AI or ML.
No
The device is used for diagnostic imaging, aiding in the detection and evaluation of diseases, but it does not directly treat conditions.
Yes
Explanation: The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" section explicitly states that the systems are intended "to aid in detecting, localizing, diagnosing, staging and restaging of lesions, tumors, disease and organ function." This directly indicates its use for diagnostic purposes.
No
The device is a combined PET/CT scanner, which is a hardware system that includes software for control, processing, and image reconstruction. The description explicitly mentions hardware components like X-Ray and PET scanners, patient handling systems, and workstations.
No, 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 Siemens Biograph Vision PET/CT system is an imaging device that uses X-rays and radiopharmaceuticals to create images of the inside of the body. It does not analyze samples taken from the body.
- Intended Use: The intended use describes the device as aiding in detecting, localizing, diagnosing, staging, and restaging of lesions, tumors, disease, and organ function through imaging. This is a diagnostic process, but it's performed in vivo (within the living body), not in vitro (in a lab setting using samples).
Therefore, based on the provided information, the Siemens Biograph Vision PET/CT system is a medical imaging device, not an In Vitro Diagnostic device.
N/A
Intended Use / Indications for Use
The Siemens Biograph Vision PET/CT systems are combined X-Ray Computed Tomography (CT) and Positron Emission Tomography (PET) scanners that provide registration and fusion of high resolution physiologic and anatomic information.
The CT component produces cross-sectional images of the body by computer reconstruction of X-Ray transmission data from either the same axial plane taken at different angles or spiral planes taken at different angles. The PET subsystem images and measures the distribution of PET radiopharmaceuticals in humans for the purpose of determining various metabolic (molecular) and physiologic functions within the human body and utilizes the CT for fast attenuation correction maps for PET studies and precise anatomical reference for the fused PET and CT images.
The system maintains independent functionality of the CT and PET devices, allowing for single modality CT and / or PET diagnostic imaging.
These systems are intended to be utilized by appropriately trained health care professionals to aid in detecting, localizing, diagnosing, staging and restaging of lesions, tumors, disease and organ function for the evaluation of diseases and disorders such as, but not limited to, cardiovascular disease, neurological disorders and cancer. The images produced by the system can also be used by the physician to aid in radiotherapy treatment planning and interventional radiology procedures.
This CT system can be used for low dose lung cancer screening in high risk populations.*

Device Description
The Biograph Vision systems are combined multi-slice X-Ray Computed Tomography (CT) and Positron Emission Tomography (PET) scanners. These systems are designed for whole body oncology, neurology and cardiology examinations.
The Biograph Vision systems provide registration and fusion of high-resolution metabolic and anatomic information from the two major components of each system (PET and CT). Additional components of the system include a patient handling system and acquisition and processing workstations with associated software.
Biograph Vision software is a command based program used for patient management, data management, scan control, image reconstruction and image archival and evaluation. All images conform to DICOM imaging format requirements.
The Biograph Vision PET/CT, which is the subject of this application, is substantially equivalent to the commercially available Biograph mCT (K173578). The key difference between the Biograph mCT (predicate device) and the Biograph Vision PET/CT is the replacement of PhotoMultiplier Tubes (PMT) with Silicon PhotoMultipliers (SiPM). SiPMs are a photon sensitive technology built by combining a solid state photodiode array and a silicon substrate. The SiPMs allow close coupling to the scintillators (crystals) and a higher active area of detectors to scintillators. This combination results in superior performance compared to the photomultiplier tubes design used in previous generation PET block detectors.

Intended Use:
The Biograph Vision PET/CT systems are radiological imaging system that are a combination of a positron emission tomography (PET) camera system for nuclear medicine images, and a computed tomography (CT) camera system for x-ray images. The nuclear medicine images and the x-ray images may be registered and displayed in a fused format (overlaid in the same orientation) for the anatomical localization of the nuclear medicine data (i.e., distribution of radiopharmaceuticals). The PET and CT portions of the system may be used independently or in combination. The PET and CT images may be transferred to other systems for radiation therapy planning or additional processing.
