The summary describes a software for surgical planning and measurement, but there is no mention of AI, ML, or any related concepts like training or test sets for algorithmic development.
No
This device is a surgical pre-operative planning software, assisting surgeons with viewing, storing, measuring radiological images, and planning surgical placements of spinal fixation devices. It is not used for direct patient treatment or rehabilitation.
No
Explanation: The device is described as surgical pre-operative planning software that assists surgeons in viewing, storing, measuring radiological images, and planning the surgical placement of spinal fixation devices. Its primary function is planning and simulation, not diagnosing medical conditions or diseases.
Yes
The device is described as an "interactive web application" and "internal software" that processes radiological images for surgical planning. The description focuses solely on software functionalities and performance studies are limited to software verification and validation. There is no mention of accompanying hardware components.
Based on the provided information, the MySpine WebPlanner & MyBalance is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic) device.
Here's why:
- IVD devices are used to examine specimens derived from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue) to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening. The MySpine WebPlanner & MyBalance operates on radiological images (DICOM), which are not biological specimens.
- The intended use is for surgical pre-operative planning and assistance to surgeons. This is a clinical decision support tool based on imaging, not a diagnostic test performed on a biological sample.
- The device description focuses on image processing, measurements, and simulation for surgical planning. This aligns with a medical image analysis and planning tool, not an IVD.
The device falls under the category of medical image management and processing systems used for surgical planning, which is distinct from in vitro diagnostics.
N/A
Intended Use / Indications for Use
The MySpine WebPlanner is a surgical pre-operative planning software intended to provide assistance to surgeons in viewing, storing, and measuring radiological images, as well as planning the surgical placement of the spinal fixation devices. The MyBalance, a module of the MySpine WebPlanner, allows to perform generic as well as specific measurements of patient's sagittal alignment and to plan spinal surgical procedures ( osteotomies or Lordosis/ Kyphosis correction in spinal fusion surgeries). To properly use the MySpine WebPlanner, and the MyBalance module, clinical judgment and experience are required.

Device Description
The subject device MySpine WebPlanner & MyBalance is an interactive web application using the patient's radiological images and the related bone segmentations to allow the end-users performing a pre-operative surgical planning.
The data and the information displayed in the web interface named WebPlanner are computed and loaded by an internal software named MyPlanner.
The MyBalance is an optional module of the MyPlanner, thus available on the WebPlanner interface, and it allows the surgeon to verify the actual patient sagittal alignment and to simulate a sagittal correction in order to determine balance condition after the planned correction.
The image format supported is DICOM. The end-user with its credentials can access the MySpine WebPlanner at https://myspine.medacta.com/.
The purpose of the current 510(k) submission is to obtain the clearance for the MySpine WebPlanner & MyBalance as a planning software. The subject device software uses the computations made by the predicate MyPlanner software, already cleared within K200792, to manufacture MySpine guides thus the surgeons after the planning with the subject MySpine & MyBalance can request (if preferred by the surgeon) for the MySpine guides to be manufactured, per the clearance within K200792. Please review Figure 1 below for a breakdown of the MySpine software interactions.
The MySpine WebPlanner & MyBalance software are of a major level of concern according to FDA's Guidance for Industry and FDA Staff: Guidance for the Content of Premarket Submissions for Software Contained in Medical Devices (issued May 11, 2005).

(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)

V. Indications for Use
The MySpine WebPlanner is a surgical pre-operative planning software intended to provide assistance to surgeons in viewing, storing, and measuring radiological images, as well as planning the surgical placement of the spinal fixation devices.
The MyBalance, a module of the MySpine WebPlanner, allows to perform generic as well as specific measurements of patient's sagittal alignment and to plan spinal surgical procedures or Lordosis/ Kyphosis correction in spinal fusion surgeries).
To properly use the MySpine WebPlanner, and the MyBalance module, clinical judgment and experience are required.
Comparison of Technological Characteristics VI.
The MySpine WebPlanner & MyBalance and the predicate devices, MySpine S2 (K200792) and Surgimap Spine (K111019), share the following characteristics:
- image input and storage:
- user interface:
- . workflow:
- output and measurements; and ●
- patient contact.
The MySpine WebPlanner & MyBalance differs from the predicate devices. MyPlanner (K200792) and Surgimap Spine (K111019), with regards to the following characteristics:
- design: ●
- operative system; and ●
- user interactions. ●
6
The subject device's design is quite different from the predicate devices since it has been developed as a web application instead of a desktop application and this difference makes the subject device independent from the operative system and usable also on a tablet. It is a design choice not raising new questions of safety and effectiveness as demonstrated by software verification activities. The slightly different user interactions between the subject and predicate devices, especially with regards to the MyBalance and with respect to the predicate Surgimap Spine (K111019), does not introduce any further risk since the main workflow steps of the subject devices (e.g. images quality control check, initial planning, landmarks acquisition) are performed by Medacta operators specifically trained for this purpose and only the simulations and the final surgical planning steps are performed by the surgeons.
Discussion
The subject and predicate devices are substantially equivalent with reference to the intended use, user interfaces, input images and their storage, workflow, measurements output and patient contact. The slight differences between the subject and predicate devices with regards to design, operative system and user interactions do not raise new questions of safety and effectiveness as demonstrated by verification and validation activities. Based on the comparison of technological characteristics and performance data provided within this submission, the data supports the substantial equivalence of the MySpine WebPlanner & MyBalance to the identified predicate devices.
VII. Performance Data
Based on the risk analysis, testing activities were conducted to written protocols. The following validation and tests are being provided in support of the substantial equivalence determination:
Non-Clinical Studies
- software verification;
- software validation, including accuracy and repeatability test for MyBalance measurements. ●
Clinical Studies:
- . No clinical studies were conducted.
VIII. Conclusion
The information provided above supports that the MySpine WebPlanner & MyBalance are substantially equivalent to the predicate devices.
