The summary describes image processing and quantitative analysis of medical images, but there is no mention of AI, ML, deep learning, or any related terms. The focus is on calculating specific metrics from the MR data.
No
CoverScan is described as a medical image management and processing software that provides measurements and metrics from medical images to assist in diagnosis, clinical management, and monitoring. It does not actively treat or cure a disease or condition.
Yes
Explanation: The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" section states that the metrics derived from the images, "when interpreted by a licensed physician, yield information that may assist in diagnosis, clinical management and monitoring of patients." This explicitly indicates a diagnostic purpose.
Yes
The device is explicitly described as a "software package" and a "post-processing software system comprised of several software modules." It is installed on general-purpose workstations and hosted on AWS, with no mention of proprietary hardware components being part of the device itself.
Based on the provided information, this device is NOT an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostics are tests performed on samples taken from the human body, such as blood, urine, or tissue, to detect diseases, conditions, or infections. They are used to examine these samples outside of the body.
- CoverScan's Function: CoverScan is a software package that processes and analyzes medical images (specifically MR data) acquired from within the patient's body. It does not analyze samples taken from the body.
- Intended Use: The intended use clearly states it's for the display, analysis, and post-processing of DICOM compliant medical images and MR data. It derives metrics from these images, which are then interpreted by a physician.
- Device Description: The device description reinforces that it uses acquired MR data to produce metrics.
While the metrics derived from the images may assist in diagnosis, the device itself is not performing a diagnostic test on a biological sample. It's a tool for analyzing imaging data.

Intended Use / Indications for Use
CoverScan is a medical image management and processing software package that allows the display, analysis and post-processing of DICOM compliant medical images and MR data.
CoverScan provides both viewing and analysis capabilities to ascertain quantified metrics of multiple organs such as the heart, lungs, liver, spleen, pancreas and kidney.
CoverScan provides measurements in different organs to be used for the assessment of longitudinal and transversal relaxation time (T1, cT1, T2), fat content (proton density fat fraction or PDFF) and metrics of organ function (e.g., left ventricular ejection fraction and lung fractional area change on deep inspiration).
These metrics derived from the images, when interpreted by a licensed physician, yield information that may assist in diagnosis, clinical management and monitoring of patients.
CoverScan is not intended for asymptomatic screening. This device is intended for use with Siemens 1.5T and 3T MRI scanners.

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)

The change to add the Siemens 3T Scan data was made and performance testing using well established methods demonstrated equal performance between the subject and the predicate. In summary, CoverScan v1.1 is substantially equivalent to the predicate device CoverScan v1.0 (K212565).
Conclusion
The subject device does not result in any new potential safety risk when compared to the chosen predicate device and it performs in accordance with its use characteristics and intended use. Based upon comparison of devices and performance testing results CoverScan v1.1 is substantially equivalent to the listed predicate device.
