Device Description
Reference values of spine morphometry have been added to the EXPERT Spine Morphometry Software.
More Information

No
The summary explicitly states "Mentions AI, DNN, or ML: Not Found" and the description focuses on adding reference values, not AI/ML processing.

No
The device provides reference values for spine morphometry, which are used at the physician's discretion. It does not directly treat or diagnose a disease or condition, but rather aids in the interpretation of patient data. Therefore, it is not a therapeutic device.

Yes
The device is described as "EXPERT Spine Morphometry Software" which processes data to provide "reference values of spine morphometry" for comparison, which are then "used at the discretion of the physician." This functionality, providing data for a physician to interpret for clinical use, indicates a diagnostic purpose. The predicate devices also include a "Bone Densitometer," further suggesting a diagnostic application.

Yes

The device is described as "EXPERT Spine Morphometry Software" and the description focuses solely on the addition of reference values to this software. There is no mention of any associated hardware component being part of the device itself.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly states that the software provides reference values for spine morphometry and that the results are used at the discretion of the physician. This indicates the software is a tool to aid in the interpretation of patient data, not a test performed on biological samples to diagnose or monitor a condition.
  • Device Description: The description focuses on adding reference values to existing software for spine morphometry. This aligns with a software tool for analysis, not an in vitro test.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of analyzing biological samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.), which is a defining characteristic of IVD devices. The input is likely imaging data (though not explicitly stated, the anatomical site and morphometry suggest this).
  • Predicate Devices: The predicate devices listed are "EXPERT Spine Morphometry" and "DPX Bone Densitometer, Reference Values." These are devices related to imaging analysis and bone density measurement, not IVD tests.

In summary, the device is a software tool that provides reference data to assist physicians in interpreting spine morphometry measurements, likely derived from imaging. This falls outside the scope of In Vitro Diagnostics.

(a)
Identification. A bone densitometer is a device intended for medical purposes to measure bone density and mineral content by x-ray or gamma ray transmission measurements through the bone and adjacent tissues. This generic type of device may include signal analysis and display equipment, patient and equipment supports, component parts, and accessories.(b)
Classification. Class II.

DISCUSSION OF PERFORMANCE DATA SUBMITTED IN SUPPORT OF 8.2 THE SAFETY AND EFFICACY CLAIMS FOR THE DEVICE:

Data from seven studies and over 3500 subjects have been used to provide normalized reference data for spine morphometry.

CONCLUSIONS DRAWN FROM DATA: 8.3

The addition of spine morphometry reference values does not raise any new questions of safety or effectiveness. The reference data is used at the discretion of the physician.
