No
The document describes image processing and analysis tools but does not mention AI, ML, or related terms like deep learning or neural networks. The performance studies focus on substantial equivalence to predicate devices and verification using sample data, not on training or testing of AI/ML models.

No
The device is described as a medical diagnostic system and an application package designed for processing, reviewing, analyzing, and communicating multidimensional digital images from various imaging devices. Its intended uses, such as facilitating extraction and segmentation of aneurysms, performing cardiac functional analysis, and assisting in the analysis of liver arterial vessels, are all for diagnostic purposes or to assist in planning procedures, not for direct treatment.

Yes

The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" section explicitly states that various applications within the Vitrea Software Package are "intended to facilitate the extraction and segmentation," "assist physicians with," or "provide image information for diagnosis," making it a diagnostic device.

Yes

The device is described as a "Software Package" and its function is to process, review, and analyze digital images acquired from various imaging devices. The description focuses solely on the software applications and their functionalities, without mentioning any accompanying hardware components that are part of the device itself. While it relies on input from hardware imaging devices, the device being described and cleared is the software package.

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

Here's why:

  • IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostics are medical devices used to perform tests on samples taken from the human body, such as blood, urine, or tissue, to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening.
  • Device Function: The Vitrea Software Package is a medical image processing software. It takes digital images acquired from various imaging modalities (CT, XA, MR, US, Cone Beam CT) and provides tools for processing, review, analysis, and measurement.
  • Lack of Sample Analysis: The software does not analyze biological samples taken from the patient. Its input is image data, not biological specimens.

Therefore, while it is a medical diagnostic system that aids in diagnosis, it does so by processing and analyzing medical images, not by performing tests on in vitro samples.

The Embolization Plan software application included in the VSTP-001A software has the same intended use as the Philips EmboGuide software. Both software applications use DICOM format images obtained using a 3D acquisition serve as an adjunct tool to assist the clinician in determining the feeder vessels during an embolization procedure. The main difference between the two software applications is the inclusion of the ability to use DICOM data and CBCT data on the subject device compared to CBCT data only for the predicate device.

The data was reviewed and verified independently by a test group and a control group. The resulting performance data demonstrated that the software was effective in assisting clinicians to identify the required feeder vessels for embolization planning.

This device is not subject to Cybersecurity Requirements as it has no access to an outside environment. All images being queued by the VSTP-001A are resident on the host Vitrea platform. The host Vitrea platform conducts all external data transactions and the Cybersecurity documentation is included for the Vitrea.

Software Documentation for a Moderate Level of Concern, per the FDA quidance document. "Guidance for the Content of Premarket Submissions for Software Contained in Medical Devices Document" issued on May 11, 2005, is also included as part of this submission.

18. CONSLUSION

The software applications included in the Vitrea Software Package, VSTP-001A, perform in a manner similar to and are intended for the same use as the predicate Based upon this information, conformance to standards, successful device completion of software validation, application of risk management and design controls and the performance data presented in this submission it is concluded that the subject device is substantially equivalent in safety and effectiveness to the predicate devices.
