Intended Use

Arterys® MICA software is a medical diagnostic application that displays, processes, stores, and transfers DICOM and non-DICOM medical data, with the exception of mammography. It provides the capability to store images and patient information, and perform filtering, digital manipulation, and quantitative measurements. The client software is designed to run on standard personal and business computers.

Arterys MICA includes an optional Cardio Al module which is used to analyze the heart and its major vessels using multi-slice, multi-phase, and velocity-encoded cardiovascular magnetic resonance (MR) images. It provides clinically relevant and reproducible, quantitative data, and has been tested and validated on MR images acquired from both 1.5T and 3.0 T MR Scanners.

Arterys MICA includes an optional Oncology AI module which provides analytical tools to help the user assess and document changes in morphological activity at diagnostic and therapy follow-up examinations. It is a tool used to support the oncological workflow by helping the user confirm the absence of lesions, including evaluation, quantification, follow-up, and documentation of any such lesions.

Arterys MICA software is intended to be used as a support tool by trained healthcare professionals to aid in diagnosis. It is intended to provide image and related information that is interpreted by a trained professional to render findings and/ or diagnosis, but it does not directly generate any diagnosis or potential findings.

Device Description

Arterys MICA is a dedicated software application used as a Digital Imaging and Communications in Medicine (DICOM) and non-DICOM information and data management system. Arterys MICA can also be used for analyzing multi-slice and multi-phase computed tomography (CT) or magnetic resonance (MR) image. Pre-existing CT or MR images are uploaded into Arterys MICA in a DICOM format from PACS or a scanner. The software has two components: i) client, and ii) server. The client software (i) can be used in a Chrome desktop web browser. The server software (ii) runs on the Linux operating system.

The basic image Viewer application of Arterys MICA is designed around a modular architecture of separate components that make up the basic image Viewer. These components include the Worklist, from which studies are selected and opened, the Uploads list that displays all uploaded studies for the current organization and the basic image Viewer itself, which allows for viewing and working with 2D and 3D images.

Functionality provided by the basic image Viewer is extended by additional Cardio Al and Oncology AI application modules and can add support for specific clinical workflows. The Cardio module adds support for flow-4D studies and provides additional functionality specific to cardiac studies. The Oncology module adds functionality specific to evaluating and measuring lesions, including lung and liver lesions/nodules.

AI/ML Overview

The provided text is a 510(k) summary for the Arterys MICA device. It describes the device, its indications for use, and a comparison to predicate devices, but it does not contain detailed acceptance criteria or a study that proves the device meets those criteria.

The "Performance Data" section (Section 5) on page 7 states: "Safety and performance of Arterys MICA has been evaluated and verified in accordance with software specifications and applicable performance standards through software verification and validation testing." However, it does not provide the specific acceptance criteria, reported performance values, or any details about the studies conducted, such as sample size, data provenance, expert consensus details, or results.

Therefore, I cannot provide the requested information in the structured format because it is not present in the given document.

§ 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)
