Intended Use
CD writer (CD-R STATION) is intended solely for the engraving of DICOM compliant images from a local area network and the CD reader (VRS-2000) is used for viewing the images either from the CD or directly from a local area network. The media (CD) is not to be used as an archiving media, but rather only as a transportable media to review images and reports. The internal hard disks of the CD-R Station and VRS-2000 are used only for running the software and to temporarily buffer the images / reports to and from the CD and local area network.
Device Description
The CD-R STATION & VRS-2000 is comprised of two principle assemblies: a personal computer and a monitor. The CD-R STATION is to be interfaced to a local area network to receive DICOM compliant images which may then be recorded onto a CD. The VRS-2000 is a stand alone station which reads DICOM compliant images from a CD and displays them on a computer monitor. The media (CD) is not to be used as an archiving media, but rather only as a transportable media to review images and reports. The internal hard disks of the CD-R STATION & VRS-2000 are used only for running the software and to temporarily buffer the images / reports which are to and from the CD.

No
The device is described as a CD writer and reader for DICOM images, used for viewing and transporting images, not for treating any medical condition.

No

The device is described as a CD writer and reader for DICOM images, used for engraving, viewing, and transporting images, not for interpreting or analyzing them to diagnose a condition.

No

The device description explicitly states it is comprised of two principal assemblies: a personal computer and a monitor, indicating it includes hardware components beyond just software.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is solely for the engraving, reading, and viewing of DICOM compliant images. This involves handling and displaying medical images, not performing tests on biological samples to diagnose or monitor a medical condition.
  • Device Description: The device is described as a personal computer and monitor system for managing and displaying medical images. It does not involve any components or processes related to analyzing biological specimens.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of analyzing biological samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.), reagents, calibrators, controls, or any other elements typically associated with in vitro diagnostic devices.

The device functions as a medical image management and display system, which falls under a different regulatory category than IVDs. The predicate and reference devices listed also appear to be image management systems, further supporting this conclusion.

Device Description

The CD-R STATION & VRS-2000 represents the first generation of Electromed International's CD writer and CD reader stations of digital cardiac images, Componets of "Picture Archiving and Communication System, CFR 892,2050 (CLASS II)". The CD-R STATION & VRS-2000 is intended solely for the engraving of DICOM compliant images from a local area network onto a CD, and for the viewing of the recorded images on the CD.

The CD-R STATION & VRS-2000 is comprised of two principle assemblies: a personal computer and a monitor. The CD-R STATION is to be interfaced to a local area network to receive DICOM compliant images which may then be recorded onto a CD. The VRS-2000 is a stand alone station which reads DICOM compliant images from a CD and displays them on a computer monitor. The media (CD) is not to be used as an archiving media, but rather only as a transportable media to review images and reports. The internal hard disks of the CD-R STATION & VRS-2000 are used only for running the software and to temporarily buffer the images / reports which are to and from the CD. Only the images of a single patient can be transferred to a single CD.

The CD-R STATION & VRS-2000 is to be connected to a 115/230V (+10%), 50/60Hz, 2.6/1.3A power source.

The configurable and add-on options being offered with the CD-R STATION & VRS-2000 is a CD label printer and a optional mobile cart.

Since the CD-R STATION & VRS-2000 can receive information and images in a DICOM compliant format, via a local area network, a CD-R Station may be connected to a VIEW ARCHIVING STATION (510k #K971176) to record the previously archived images onto a transportable media (CD).

CLASSIFICATION NAME: Componet of "Picture Archiving and Communication System, CFR 892.2050 (CLASS II)"

COMMON OR USUAL NAME: CD writer and CD reader stations of digital cardiac images

PROPRIETARY NAME: CD-R STATION & VRS-2000

PREVIOUSLY MARKETED DEVICE TO WHICH SUBSTANTIAL EQUIVALENCE IS BEING CLAIMED:

Sony Medical System's "Cinenet Cardiac Image Network" (K924708) and Diagnostic Archive's "Cardiac Image Management System (CIMS)" (K925961)

The CD-R STATION & VRS-2000 represents the first generation of Electromed International's CD writer and CD reader stations of digital cardiac images, Componets of "Picture Archiving and Communication System, CFR 892,2050 (CLASS II)". The Cinenet Cardiac Image Network, and the Cardiac Image Management System are complete systems which comprise of the following functions: image archiving; processing; analysis, management; and analysis. The CD-R STATION & VRS-2000 is intended solely for the engraving of DICOM compliant images from a local area network onto a CD, and for the viewing of the recorded images on the CD.

The CD-R STATION & VRS-2000 is comprised of two principle assemblies: a personal computer and a monitor. Unlike the Cinenet Cardiac Image Network which uses digital videocassettes as the archiving media, the CD-R STATION & VRS-2000 does not archive at all. The CD-R STATION is to be interfaced to a local area network to receive DICOM compliant images which may then be recorded onto a CD. The VRS-2000 is a stand alone station which reads DICOM compliant images from a CD and displays them on a computer monitor. The media (CD) is not to be used as an archiving media, but rather only as a transportable media to review images and reports. The internal hard disks of the CD-R STATION & VRS-2000 are used only for running the software and to temporarily buffer the images / reports which are to and from the CD. Only the images of a single patient can be transferred to a single CD, whereas the Cinenet Cardiac Image Network incorporates a Data Storage Library for archival which contains anywhere from 84 to 1008 digital video cassettes for automatic retrieval.
