Intended Use
ClariSIGMAM is a software application intended for use with compatible full field digital mammography systems. ClariSIGMAM calculates percent breast density defined as the ratio of fibroglandular tissue to total breast area estimates. ClariSIGMAM uses this numerical value to provide breast density group information (BI-RADS A+B as fatty and BI-RADS C+D as dense) to aid interpreting physicians in the assessment of breast tissue composition. ClariSIGMAM produces adjunctive information. It is not a diagnostic aid.
Device Description
ClariSIGMAM software is a standalone software application that automatically analyzes "for presentation" 2D digital mammograms to assess breast tissue composition. The software assesses the breast density of women and generates a breast density group information for the patient (BI-RADS A+B as fatty and BI-RADS C+D as dense) in accordance with the American College of Radiology's Breast Imaging Reporting and Data System (BI-RADS) density classification scale. Output of breast density by ClariSIGMAM is designed to display on a mammography workstation or PACS as DIOCM mammography structured report or secondary capture. The reports are configured to provide the following data: Breast area (cm²) for each breast, Fibroglandular tissue area (cm²) for each breast, Percent breast density for each breast, Breast density group information for the patient (BI-RADS A+B as fatty and BI-RADS C+D as dense).
More Information

Unknown
The description mentions automated analysis and calculation of breast density, which could potentially be implemented using traditional image processing techniques or AI/ML. However, there is no explicit mention of AI, ML, or related terms like neural networks or deep learning in the provided text. The performance studies describe comparisons to expert visual assessment and interactive thresholding software, which doesn't definitively indicate the use of AI/ML.

No
The device is a software application that aids in the assessment of breast tissue composition by calculating breast density, providing information for diagnostic purposes, not for treatment or therapy.

No

The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" section explicitly states, "It is not a diagnostic aid."

Yes

The device is explicitly described as a "standalone software application" and its function is to analyze existing digital mammograms to provide breast density information. There is no mention of accompanying hardware or hardware components being part of the device itself.

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

Here's why:

  • IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostics are devices intended for use in the examination of specimens derived from the human body in order to provide information for diagnostic, monitoring, or compatibility purposes. This typically involves analyzing biological samples like blood, urine, tissue, etc.
  • ClariSIGMAM's Function: ClariSIGMAM analyzes digital mammography images, which are medical images, not biological specimens. It processes existing image data to calculate breast density.
  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly states it's a software application for use with mammography systems to calculate percent breast density and provide breast density group information. It explicitly states it is not a diagnostic aid.

Therefore, ClariSIGMAM falls under the category of medical image analysis software, not In Vitro Diagnostics.

IV. DEVICE DESCRIPTION

ClariSIGMAM software is a standalone software application that automatically analyzes "for presentation" 2D digital mammograms to assess breast tissue composition.

The software assesses the breast density of women and generates a breast density group information for the patient (BI-RADS A+B as fatty and BI-RADS C+D as dense) in accordance with the American College of Radiology's Breast Imaging Reporting and Data System (BI-RADS) density classification scale.

Output of breast density by ClariSIGMAM is designed to display on a mammography workstation or PACS as DIOCM mammography structured report or secondary capture. The reports are configured to provide the following data:

  • Breast area (cm²) for each breast
  • Fibroglandular tissue area (cm²) for each breast
  • Percent breast density for each breast
  • · Breast density group information for the patient (BI-RADS A+B as fatty and BI-RADS C+D as dense)

V. INDICATIONS FOR USE

ClariSIGMAM is a software application intended for use with compatible full field digital mammography systems. ClariSIGMAM calculates percent breast density defined as the ratio of fibroglandular tissue to total breast area estimates. ClariSIGMAM uses this numerical value to provide breast density group information (BI-RADS A+B as fatty and BI-RADS C+D as dense) to aid interpreting physicians in the assessment of breast tissue composition. ClariSIGMAM produces adjunctive information. It is not a diagnostic aid.

VI. SUBSTANTIAL EQUIVALENCE TABLE

The subject device (ClariSIGMAM) is substantially equivalent to the predicate devices (K170540, DM-Density) which also calculate breast density as a ratio of fibro-glandular tissue and total breast area estimates. Both devices are not to be used as diagnostic aids, but to provide adjunctive information only. Users in both cases must be qualified medical practitioners and exercise their professional judgment when formulating diagnostic decisions and selecting appropriate treatment paths that are supported by breast density data. Both devices utilize standard DICOM communications protocol to receive Digital mammograms, processes them and automatically transfers the DICOM summary report to the picture archiving and communication system (PACS).
