Intended Use
The AAA Model is a software application designed to view and quantify 3D image data acquired by Philips diagnostic ultrasound systems for use in measuring the anterior diameter of abdominal aortic aneurysms. Optionally, lateral diameter, maximum diameter, and partial volume of an abdominal aortic aneurysm can also be provided. It is intended to be used by trained and qualified healthcare professionals in clinical point-of-care facilities.
Device Description
AAA Model for QLAB Advanced Quantification Software is a software application designed for structural measurements of an Abdominal Aortic Aneurism (AAA), including volume measurement and diameter measurements. AAA Model is designed to assist in monitoring a previously diagnosed Abdominal Aortic Aneurisms in two ways: 1) to follow the anteroposterior (AP) maximum diameter for a Native AAA, and 2) to follow the anteroposterior (AP) maximum diameter for a post-surgical AAA. Philips QLAB Advanced Quantification Software (QLAB) is designed to view and quantify image data acquired on Philips ultrasound systems. QLAB is available either as a stand-alone product that can function on a standard PC, a dedicated workstation, and on-board Philips' ultrasound systems. AAA Model is compatible with the Philips EPIQ Diagnostic Ultrasound System.
More Information

No
The summary explicitly states that the device "does not use artificial intelligence or machine learning."

No.
The device is for viewing and quantifying 3D image data for measuring abdominal aortic aneurysms, which falls under diagnostic imaging rather than therapy.

Yes

The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" states that the device is "designed to view and quantify 3D image data acquired by Philips diagnostic ultrasound systems for use in measuring the anterior diameter of abdominal aortic aneurysms." The "Device Description" also notes that it is "designed for structural measurements of an Abdominal Aortic Aneurism (AAA), including volume measurement and diameter measurements" to "assist in monitoring a previously diagnosed Abdominal Aortic Aneurisms." These functions directly support the diagnosis and monitoring of medical conditions.

Yes

The device is explicitly described as a "software application" and "software only" within the document. While it processes data from a Philips ultrasound system, the device itself is the software component for viewing and quantifying that data.

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 about a person's health.
  • Device Function: The AAA Model software application processes image data acquired directly from a Philips diagnostic ultrasound system. It does not analyze biological samples taken from the patient.
  • Intended Use: The intended use is to view and quantify 3D image data for measuring the anterior diameter of abdominal aortic aneurysms. This is an imaging-based measurement, not a diagnostic test performed on a biological sample.

The device is a software tool that assists healthcare professionals in interpreting and quantifying medical images, which falls under the category of medical imaging software, not In Vitro Diagnostics.

(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)

6. Nonclinical Performance Data

AAA Model was tested in accordance with Philips internal processes. Non-Clinical verification testing has been performed addressing system level requirements according to system and design specifications, and risk control measures. Software verification and clinical performance accuracy data were used to support substantial equivalence of the AAA Model application to the predicate QLAB Advanced Quantification Software applications.

9. Conclusion

For testing, all pre-determined acceptance criteria were met. Results of these tests show that the proposed AAA Model meets the intended use. The differences between the subject device and predicate device do not raise new questions of safety and/or effectiveness. Therefore, the proposed AAA Model is substantially equivalent to the predicate QLAB Advanced Quantification Software applications in terms of intended use, technological characteristics, safety and effectiveness.
