Explanation: The device is described as a "diagnostic imaging device" used for "detecting, localizing, diagnosing, staging and follow-up for monitoring therapy response," which are all diagnostic functions. It does not exert a therapeutic effect on the patient.
Yes
Explanation: The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" section explicitly states, "The Vereos PET/CT System is a diagnostic imaging device," and further details its use for "detecting, localizing, diagnosing, staging and follow-up for monitoring therapy response of various diseases." The "Device Description" also refers to it as an "integrated diagnostic X-Ray Computed Tomography (CT) and Positron Emission Tomography (PET) system designed for a wide range of diagnostic applications."
No
The device description clearly states it is an integrated system comprised of hardware components including a PET subsystem, CT subsystem, patient table, operating station, reconstruction servers, x-ray high voltage power supply, x-ray tube, and detection system. While it includes software for image fusion and analysis, it is not solely software.
Based on the provided text, the Vereos PET/CT System is not an In Vitro Diagnostic (IVD) device.
Here's why:
- Definition of IVD: In Vitro Diagnostics are devices used to examine specimens, such as blood, urine, or tissue, that are taken from the human body to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening.
- Vereos PET/CT System Function: The description clearly states that the Vereos PET/CT System is a diagnostic imaging device that uses Positron Emission Tomography (PET) and X-ray Computed Tomography (CT) to image the distribution of radiopharmaceuticals within the patient and anatomical cross-sections of the patient's body. It does not involve the analysis of specimens taken from the body.
- Intended Use: The intended use is for detecting, localizing, diagnosing, staging, and follow-up of diseases by imaging the patient directly.
Therefore, the Vereos PET/CT System falls under the category of in vivo diagnostic imaging devices, not in vitro diagnostics.
N/A
Intended Use / Indications for Use
The Vereos PET/CT System is a diagnostic imaging device that combines Positron Emission Tomography (PET) and Xray Computed Tomography (CT) systems. The CT subsystem images anatomical cross-sections by computer reconstruction of x-ray transmission data.

Device Description
The proposed Vereos PET/CT systems is an integrated diagnostic X-Ray Computed Tomography (CT) and Positron Emission Tomography (PET) system designed for a wide range of diagnostic applications. Computerized Tomography (CT) is a medical imaging technique that uses X-rays to obtain cross sectional images of the head or body. The quality of the images depends on the level and amount of X-ray energy delivered to the tissue. CT imaging displays both high-density tissue, such as bone, and soft tissue. When interpreted by a trained physician, CT images provide useful diagnostic information. Positron Emission Tomography (PET) uses radiopharmaceuticals to obtain images by measuring the internal distribution of radioactivity within organs of the body. PET technology enables the practitioner to reconstruct high-resolution, three-dimensional images of biochemical and metabolic processes of organs within the body.
The proposed Vereos PET/CT system utilizes the CT technology to obtain anatomic images of the human body and PET technology to obtain functional images of the human body. The clinical value of both technologies increases with the capability to fuse the CT and PET images using Philips fusion viewer Image Fusion software to create a composite image for therapeutic planning. The system also provides tools for the quantifying results from the CT and PET images and provides the means for a simplified review of the CT, PET, and fused images. The integration of the anatomical data from CT with the metabolic data from PET gives clinicians the visual information necessary to define the severity, as well as the extent, of the disease.
The system is comprised of the following system components/subsystems: positron emission tomography (PET); X-ray computed tomography (CT); a patient table; Operating station; Reconstruction Servers. On the gantry, the main active components are the x-ray high voltage (HV) power supply, the x-ray tube, and the detection system. These components of the proposed Vereos PET/CT are identical to the currently marketed and predicate device Ingenuity TF Digital PET/CT (K123599) with respect to technological specifications.
