Intended Use
The Imageshare Computed Radiography Acquisition Station and/or Software is a bi-directional gateway that sends or receives digital images to/from various image sources (including, but not limited to, Fuji CR, Fuji HI-C654, Analogic Corporation's DASM, Computed Radiography or Direct Radiography devices). The incoming data formats may be raw CR data, processed CR data or data formats proprietary to the modality source vendor. The Imageshare Computed Radiography Acquisition Station and/or Software converts the data to DICOM, ACR-NEMA v2.0, SPI format or other proprietary data format and transmits the data to one or more user-specified nodes across a standard, general purpose computing network.
Device Description
The Imageshare Computed Radiography Acquisition and/or Software is designed to operate on a general purpose computer system running an image acquisition software application to receive, reformat and transmit image and demographic information. The system receives the image messages from a Computed Radiography or other image source and routes them automatically through a conversion to a destination based on information contained in the message source, encoded data or data entered or configured by an operator through a user interface. The Imageshare Computed Radiography Acquisition stores the data on its local hard disk until the destination acknowledges the successful transmission. Image delivery is also guaranteed when the Imageshare Computed Radiography Acquisition Station loses power and is restarted.
More Information

Not Found

No
The description focuses on data conversion, routing, and transmission, with no mention of AI/ML algorithms for image analysis, interpretation, or decision support.

No
The device is described as a bi-directional gateway for digital images, primarily converting and transmitting data. It does not directly provide therapy or therapeutic benefit to a patient.

No

The device is described as a "bi-directional gateway" and software that "receives, reformat and transmit image and demographic information." Its function is data conversion and transmission (e.g., to DICOM), not the interpretation or analysis of medical images to diagnose conditions.

Yes

The device description explicitly states "The Imageshare Computed Radiography Acquisition and/or Software is designed to operate on a general purpose computer system running an image acquisition software application". While it interacts with hardware (image sources and general purpose computers), the device itself is described as software that performs data conversion and transmission. The "Station" part of the name appears to refer to the software running on a computer, not a dedicated hardware device.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is described as a "bi-directional gateway that sends or receives digital images" and "converts the data to DICOM... and transmits the data". This focuses on the handling and transmission of medical images, not on analyzing biological samples or providing diagnostic information based on in vitro testing.
  • Device Description: The description emphasizes receiving, reformatting, and transmitting image and demographic information. It describes data flow and storage, not analysis of biological specimens.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of analyzing biological samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.), detecting specific analytes, or providing diagnostic results based on laboratory tests.

The device functions as a data management and conversion tool for medical images, which falls under the category of medical imaging informatics or picture archiving and communication systems (PACS) components, not in vitro diagnostics.

Dear Mr. Finegan:

We have reviewed your Section 510(k) notification of intent to market the device referenced above and we have determined the device is substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to devices marketed in interstate commerce prior to May 28, 1976, the enactment date of the Medical Device Amendments, or to devices that have been reclassified in accordance with the provisions of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (Act). You may, therefore, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act. The general controls provisions of the Act include requirements for annual registration, listing of devices, good manufacturing practice, labeling, and probibitions against misbranding and adulteration.

If your device is classified (see above) into either class III (Premarket Approval), it may be subject to such additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 895. A substantially equivalent decemination assumes compliance with the Current Good Manufacturing Practice

rirement, as set forth in the Quality System Regulation (QS) for Modical Devices: General regulation (21 CFR Part 820) and through periodic QS inspections, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) will verify such assumptions. Failure to comply whithe GMP regulation may result in regulatory action. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register. Please note: this response to your premarket notification submission does not affect any obligation you might have under sections 531 the Act for devices under the Electronic Product Radiation Control provisions, or other Federal laws or regulations.

This letter will allow you to begin marketing your device as described in your 510(k) premarket aothirestion. The FDA finding of substantial equivalence of your device to a legally marketed predicate device results in a classification for your device and thus, permits your device to proceed to the market.

If you desire specific advice for your device on our labeling regulation (2) CFR Part 801 and additionally 809.10 for in vitro diagnostic devices), please contact the Office of Compilance at (301) 594-4613. Additionally, for questions and advertising of your device, please contact the Office of Compliance at (307) 594-4639.
