The description focuses on data format conversion and transmission, with no mention of AI/ML algorithms for image analysis, diagnosis, or prediction. The software mentioned is for format conversion, not intelligent processing.
No
The device is described as a "communications gateway" that transfers and converts image data for printing, viewing, or archiving, not for directly treating a medical condition.
No
Explanation: The device is described as a "communications gateway" that transfers image data from imaging modalities to other systems (printing, viewing, archive, network). It converts image data formats but does not perform analysis or interpretation of the images to diagnose medical conditions.
No
The device description explicitly mentions the use of a "commercially available video frame grabber / digitizer board," which is a hardware component.
Based on the provided information, the Imation™ MODEL 9410 NETWORK INTERFACE is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use is clearly stated as a "communications gateway" for transferring image data from imaging modalities to other systems (printing, viewing, archive, network). It focuses on the transmission and conversion of image data formats.
- Lack of Diagnostic Purpose: The device does not perform any analysis of biological samples or provide information for the diagnosis, monitoring, or treatment of diseases. Its function is purely related to the handling and transfer of medical images.
- No Mention of Biological Samples: The description and intended use do not involve any interaction with or analysis of biological materials (blood, tissue, etc.), which is a core characteristic of IVD devices.
- Focus on Image Data: The device works with image data from modalities like CT, MR, and CR, which are used for diagnostic imaging, but the device itself is not performing the diagnostic interpretation.
In summary, the Imation™ MODEL 9410 NETWORK INTERFACE is a medical device, but its function as a network interface for image data transfer does not fall under the definition of an In Vitro Diagnostic device.

§ 892.2020 Medical image communications device.
(a)
Identification. A medical image communications device provides electronic transfer of medical image data between medical devices. It may include a physical communications medium, modems, and interfaces. It may provide simple image review software functionality for medical image processing and manipulation, such as grayscale window and level, zoom and pan, user delineated geometric measurements, compression, or user added image annotations. The device does not perform advanced image processing or complex quantitative functions. This does not include electronic transfer of medical image software functions.(b)
Classification. Class I (general controls). The device is exempt from the premarket notification procedures in subpart E of part 807 of this chapter subject to § 892.9.

Description And Intended Use of Device:
The Imation™ MODEL 9410 NETWORK INTERFACE Network Interface is intended for use as a communications gateway. It accepts input from imaging source modalities and transfers the image data to a compatible printing, viewing, archive or network system. The MODEL 9410 NETWORK INTERFACE accepts input in DICOM standard, digital or video formats and converts, if needed, to DICOM Standard or other digital formats. The system is intended for use with a variety of imaging modalities including CT, MR and CR for the transmission of image data to a variety of printing, viewing and storage devices.
Technological Characteristics:
The subject device and predicate devices use the same technical design base. The communications gateway devices receive image data from an imaging modality. User control is performed by a keypad or directly by the modality through the host control. Based on the control data from the modality, image information is transferred to the appropriate destination device.
Software is used to convert, as needed, image and control data from one digital format to another. In the case of analog video digitization, a commercially available video frame grabber / digitizer board is used.

Performance Data:
Safety and effectiveness are key activities in the commercialization and are assured via meeting voluntary standards, including UL950, CSA C22.2 No. 950, and Imation™ MODEL 9410 NETWORK INTERFACE Requirements specification(Part B).
Released software, according to the established procedures, is given a production level code and subsequent code changes undergo testing, hazard analysis and approval equivalent to the initial release.
Conclusion:
The subject device, like the predicates, has no patient contact. The devices also do not control, monitor or otherwise effect any devices directly connected to or effecting the patient. Images communicated by the subject device and its predicates are reviewed by medical personnel, offering ample opportunity for competent human intervention in case of a malfunction or other failure.
Images communicated by the subject device maintain the same or better image properties in the areas of spatial and gray-scale resolution and in density uniformity as the predicate. No lossy compression is used in this device.
The subject and predicate device(s) have all been designed to equivalent safety standards.
Imation therefore concludes that the Imation™ MODEL 9410 NETWORK INTERFACE Network Interface is as safe and effective as the predicate device
