The summary describes a PET scanner that performs standard image acquisition, reconstruction, processing, viewing, and analysis. It explicitly states it uses the same technology and performance as legally marketed predicate devices. There is no mention of AI, ML, or any related terms, nor any description of training or test sets typically associated with AI/ML development.
No
Explanation: The device is described as a PET scanner used for diagnostic purposes by measuring and displaying images of metabolic and physiologic functions. It is not designed to treat a disease or improve a health condition.
Yes
Explanation: The device is a PET scanner designed to measure the distribution of radiopharmaceuticals to determine metabolic and physiologic functions within the human body. This process of measuring and determining bodily functions for medical purposes falls under diagnostic activities.
No
The device description explicitly states that the system includes a gantry with transmission scan capability and a workstation, indicating hardware components beyond just software.
Based on the provided text, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use clearly states that the device measures the distribution of injected radiopharmaceuticals in humans for the purpose of determining metabolic and physiologic functions within the human body. This describes an in-vivo (within a living organism) diagnostic process, not an in-vitro (outside of a living organism) diagnostic process.
- Device Description: The description details a PET scanner system, which is a medical imaging device used to visualize and measure processes within the body.
- Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of analyzing biological samples (like blood, urine, tissue) outside of the body, which is a defining characteristic of IVD devices.
Therefore, the ANCORIS PET Scanner is a medical imaging device used for in-vivo diagnostics, not an in-vitro diagnostic device.

Device Description
The proposed device 'ANCORIS' is a PET system providing volume measurements of metabolic and physiologic processes. It is the same as the legally market device, name 'ECAT ACCEL PET scanner', K002584, from CTI PET Systems (now Siemens Medical), combined with the legally market device, name 'ECAT Scintron PET', K130269 from MiE GmbH.
It is designed to close the economical gap between the demand and availability of stand-alone PET scanner.
'ANCORIS' PET Scanner is designed to perform acquisitions, image The reconstruction, processing, viewing and analysis of data. It uses the same technology and has the same performance as well as indications for use as the leqally market devices.
The system includes the gantry with transmission scan capability, the currently market integrated workstation 'ECAT Scintron PET' (K130269) and the new designed PHS. The system is available as a three detector-ring system with a 16.2cm field of view same as used in currently marketed device ECAT ACCEL PET Scanner (K002584).
Indications for Use
The 'ANCORIS' PET Scanner is designed to acquire data, process and display images by appropriated trained medical professionals via measuring the distribution of injected positron emitting radiopharmaceuticals in humans for the purpose of determining various metabolic and physiologic functions within the human body.
Comparison with Predicate Devices
The 'ANCORIS' PET Scanner is similar in measuring design and function to the legally market device 'ECAT ACCEL PET scanner', K002584, as well as the PET Scanner used in the legally market device, name 'ECAT LSO PET/CT Scanner', K013504. Same as in the 'ECAT ACCEL PET scanner' rotating source are used to perform the transmission scan. The main difference of the current device 'ANCORIS' is a PHS (patient handling system) for higher patient weight.
The 'ANCORIS' PET Scanner will use the same computer hard- and software technology as used in the legally market device, name 'ECAT Scintron PET', K130269.

Image /page/5/Picture/0 description: The image shows a logo with the letters "MiE" in white against a blue background. The letters are stylized, with the "M" having a sharp, angular design and the "i" having a circular dot above it. The blue background is a solid, uniform color, providing a clean and simple backdrop for the text.
New changes in the current device
- The patient handling system (PHS) is designed for higher patient weights up to -227kg (500lbs). The mechanical technologies are similar to the legally market device 'ECAT ACCEL PET Scanner', K002584. The PHS pallet is designed for higher patient weights and similar attenuation properties.
- -The trigger unit for ECG and respiratory gating is integrated into the rear of the ANCORIS PHS and moves together with the pallet. The operation is done via the user touch interface at the gantry.
- The graphical user touch interface displays more information of the acquisition and system status including operation of the trigger unit. The touch interface allows a modern usage of the system.
Performance verification and validation of the device
The performance of the ANCORIS is successful checked by verification and validation of the ANCORIS system. Furthermore, it is checked if the system meets the specifications and fulfills its intended purpose.
The higher patient load of the PHS and the general requirements for basic safety and essential performance is checked during the IEC 60601-1 tests.
The transmission technology by Ge68 rod sources is similar to transmission technology of the legally market device 'ECAT ACCEL PET Scanner', K002584. This is checked by a comparison of the rod source holder, septa, parking positions, attenuation of PHS pallet and the attenuation correction procedure.
Conclusion
The 'ANCORIS' PET System has similar intended use, operating principle and fundamental technologies as legally market devices. The manufacturing, design and development processes of the 'ANCORIS' PET System are conform to currently valid standards including applicable medical device safety and performance.
All test results are, in opinion of MiE GmbH, that the 'ANCORIS' PET System substantially equivalent to the predicated devices.
