Intended Use
Aid-U is a software solution intended to be used for storing, zoom-out, retrieving, transmitting, and processing medical images, or outputting them. Aid-U is intended for use as a web- based application and is networked with a PACS server. It enables the display, comparison of CT, MR, PT, US, XA, NM, DX, and SC from other DICOM compliant modalities. Typical users are radiologists, technologists, and clinicians.
Device Description
Aid-U is a medical image transmission device software, of SaaS type (Software as a Service, provided as a service, not as a software installation) or an On-Premise Software type web application (Companies install software in data centers managed by their own facilities) that allows patient medical image data generated by medical imaging devices to be transmitted, stored, managed, and retrieved using standard internet protocols (HTML5).
More Information

Not Found

No
The document describes a standard medical image management and viewing software with image processing capabilities, but there is no mention of AI, ML, deep learning, or any related terms or concepts in the provided text. The focus is on storage, retrieval, transmission, and display of images.

No
The device is described as software for storing, retrieving, transmitting, and processing medical images, and its intended use is for display and comparison of images from various modalities. It does not exert any therapeutic effect on the patient.

No

The device is described as a medical image transmission and management software. Its intended use is for storing, retrieving, transmitting, processing, and displaying medical images. It does not state that it analyzes images or patient data to provide diagnostic insights or findings.

Yes

The device description explicitly states "Aid-U is a medical image transmission device software, of SaaS type... or an On-Premise Software type web application". It focuses on the software's function of transmitting, storing, managing, and retrieving medical image data. There is no mention of accompanying 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 provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening.
  • Aid-U's function: Aid-U is described as a software solution for storing, retrieving, transmitting, processing, and displaying medical images. It works with images from various imaging modalities (CT, MR, etc.).
  • No mention of biological samples: The description of Aid-U's intended use and device description does not involve the analysis of any biological samples from the human body. Its function is solely related to the management and display of medical images.

Therefore, Aid-U falls under the category of medical image management and viewing software, not an in vitro diagnostic device.

§ 892.2050 Medical image management and processing system.

(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)

7. Determination of Substantial Equivalence

Aid-U has the same intended use, principle of operation, and similar technological features to the predicate devices ICIS (K143397) and NovaPACS (K171754).

There might be slight differences in features and menu, but these differences between the predicate devices and the proposed device do not raise any new or potential safety risks to the user or patient and questions of safety or effectiveness. Based on the results of software validation and verification tests, we conclude that the proposed device is substantially equivalent to the predicate devices.

8. Summary of Non-Clinical Test

Non-clinical tests were conducted for the device Aid-U during product development.

  • . NEMA PS 3.1 - 3.15, 3.18 (2016). Digital Imaging and Communication in Medicine (DICOM)
  • . ISO/IEC 15444-1:2016 (JPEG 2000)
  • IEC 62304:2015, Medical devices software Software life-cycle processes .
  • . ISO 14971:2019 Medical devices - Application of risk management to medical devices
  • . IEC TR 80002-1:2009, Medical device software -- Part 1: Guidance on the application of ISO 14971 to medical device software
  • . AAMI TIR57:2016, Principles for medical device security-Risk management

The risk analysis was completed, verification and validation tests were performed to support the claim of substantial equivalence, and the test results support that all software specifications meet the acceptance criteria. It complies with cybersecurity requirements by implementing processes to prevent unauthorized access, modification, misuse, or refusal to use information stored, accessed, or transmitted by medical devices.

9. Safety and Effectiveness Information:

Software specifications, design descriptions, hazard analysis, and labeling information are submitted in support of this premarket notification. The device labeling contains instructions for use with cautions to provide for safe and effective use of the device. The results of the hazard analysis, combined with the appropriate preventive measures Taken, indicate the device is of moderate level of concern, as per the Guidance for the Content of Premarket Submissions for Software Contained in Medical Devices (May 11, 2005).

10. Conclusion

The new device Aid-U and predicate device are substantially equivalent in the areas of technical characteristics, general functions, application, and intended use. The new device does not introduce a fundamentally new scientific technology, and the nonclinical tests demonstrate that the device is as safe and effective as the predicate devices currently on the market.
