Intended Use

The OphthaVision Imaging System is intended to be used to capture, archive and manipulate digital images of the eye obtained through the use of an ophthalmic camera.

Device Description

The OphthaVision Imaging System consists of: (1) a digital camera; (2) an imaging board: (3) a personal computer; (4) a monitor; and (5) MRP Group Inc.'s Microsoft Windows based image processing software. The OphthaVision Imaging System is used in ophthalmic procedures such as digital angiography during which the patient's retina is viewed through a slit lamp or a fundus camera. Images are transferred to the OphthaVision Imaging System's imaging board, located in the OphthaVision Imaging System's personal computer and stored in the computer's Random Access Memory (RAM) and hard drive. As the images accumulate, the user downloads the images from the hard drive onto the computer's Jaz drive, a removable media drive, by using the computer keyboard and mouse to manipulate the software interface.

AI/ML Overview

This 510(k) submission (K980295) for the OphthaVision Imaging System, an ophthalmic camera with a digital imaging system, does not contain a study that establishes performance criteria and demonstrates the device meets those criteria.

Instead, this submission focuses on establishing substantial equivalence to predicate devices based on intended use and technological characteristics. The "Performance Characteristics" section describes the components and functions of the OphthaVision Imaging System but does not present data from a formal study with acceptance criteria.

Therefore, I cannot provide the requested information for acceptance criteria and a study proving their fulfillment. The provided text primarily addresses:

  1. Intended Use: To capture, archive, and manipulate digital images of the eye obtained through the use of an ophthalmic camera.
  2. Technological Characteristics Comparison: The device uses a Kodak MegaPlus digital camera, a 1-gigabyte Jaz drive, stores files in TIFF format, operates on Pentium-chip personal computers with Microsoft Windows-based software, and has similar storage capabilities and monitors to predicate devices.
  3. Software Functions: Similar to predicate devices, providing image acquisition, analysis, storage, and retrieval. Specific functions include printing, extracting/deleting, saving, auto-aligning, image comparison, animation, and stereo imaging, along with image manipulation (magnify, reduce, invert, flip, rotate, brightness, sharpness, contrast, shadow, edge trace, blur).
  4. Verification and Validation: The document states that "MRP Group, Inc. has performed the software verification and validation. The verification and validation results demonstrate that the device meets the system and software specifications and requirements." However, the details of these verification and validation activities, including specific acceptance criteria or study results, are not included in the provided text.

Without a performance study in the provided text, I cannot populate the table or answer the specific questions related to a study's methodology (sample size, ground truth, experts, adjudication, MRMC, standalone performance, training set).

Intended Use

The OphthaVision Imaging System is intended to be used to capture, archive and manipulate digital images of the eye obtained through the use of an ophthalmic camera.

{1}------------------------------------------------

Substantial Equivalence

MRP Group, Inc.'s OphthaVision Imaging System, Ophthalmic Imaging System's DFC, Midwest Ophthalmic Instrument's ORIMS, Tomey Corporation's ImageScape and Topcon's Imagenet all have the same intended use: to capture, archive, and manipulate digital images of the eye obtained though the use of an ophthalmic camera. The OphthaVision Imaging System, DFC, ORIMS, ImageScape, and Imagenet also have substantially equivalent technological characteristics. For instance, the OphthaVision, DFC. ImageScape and Imagenet all are equipped with the same Kodak MegaPlus digital camera and 1 gigabyte Jaz drive, and store the files in a TIFF file format.

The OphthaVision Imaging System and the predicate devices are all operated using personal computers with keyboards and a hand-operated mouse. The OphthaVision Imaging System, DFC, ImageScape and Imagenet use the Pentium chip-based personal computers with Microsoft Windows-based software. The OphthaVision Imaging System, DFC. ImageScape and Imagenet systems also have similar storage capabilities and monitors. Minor differences do not raise any new issues of safety or effectiveness because the OphthaVision's storage capabilities are superior to those of Imagenet and DFC's storage capabilities and do not affect the imaging capabilities of the device.

The OphthaVision Imaging System and the predicate devices all have the same basic software functions: image acquisition, analysis, storage and retrieval. The OphthaVision Imaging System and the ImageScape software have nearly identical functions because the OphthaVision Imaging System software was developed to have many of the same functions. The principal difference between the two is the graphical user interface. This difference does not raise any new issues of safety or effectiveness because both systems are graphical user interface systems in which the user clicks a mouse on a button to perform a task. Furthermore, MRP Group, Inc. has performed the software verification and validation. The verification and validation results demonstrate that the device meets the system and software specifications and requirements.

MRP Group Inc.'s OphthaVision Imaging System and the predicate devices are operated in the same manner. The ophthalmologist views the patient's eve through an ophthalmic camera with a digital camera mounted on a C-Mount to capture, archive and manipulate images. The patient is prepared for imaging in accordance with standard ophthalmic procedures and the ophthalmologist operates the joystick to send images to the digital camera in the same manner. For the Ophtha Vision Imaging System and the predicate devices, images are captured and manipulated using a graphical user interface. The systems software for the various devices also permit the ophthalmologist to print images, view images on the monitor, and archive the images on a removable media drive.

Performance Characteristics

The OphthaVision Imaging System consists of: (1) a digital camera; (2) an imaging board: (3) a personal computer; (4) a monitor; and (5) MRP Group Inc.'s Microsoft Windows based image processing software. The OphthaVision Imaging System is used in ophthalmic procedures such as digital angiography during which the patient's retina is viewed through a slit lamp or a fundus camera. Images are transferred to the OphthaVision Imaging System's imaging board, located in the OphthaVision Imaging System's personal computer and stored in the computer's Random Access Memory (RAM) and hard drive. As the images accumulate, the user downloads the images from the hard drive onto the computer's Jaz drive, a removable media drive, by using the computer keyboard and mouse to manipulate the software interface.

After downloading the images to the Jaz drive, the ophthalmologist may continue to capture images or process the images previously captured and downloaded to the Jaz drive. To further process the images with the OphthaVision Imaging System software, the ophthalmologist can choose options to perform the functions, described in more detail below, for analysis, archival and retrieval of images. In addition, the ophthalmologist may view the images on the monitor or print them on paper.

Each image captured by the digital camera is transferred to the imaging board. The image transfer and processing does not use data compression. The personal computer is an off-the-shelf Performance/VS Pentium Pro computer. The personal computer has MRP Group Inc.'s Microsoft Windows-based image processing software installed which has the capability of saving displaying and archiving images. The software permits the user to manipulate and enhance the image. The image may be magnified, reduced, inverted. flipped or rotated. The user also has the ability to adjust the image's brightness, sharpness and contrast. The image may be enhanced by shadow, edge trace, and blur The software performs seven image-processing functions: (1) print; (2) functions. extract/delete: (3) save: (4) auto-align; (5) image compare; (6) animate; and (7) stereo imaging.

Images may be printed in portrait or landscape mode depending of the user's selections. Each image may be annotated with patient specific data such as the patient's name, date, and selected eve. The image may be printed on any Microsoft Windows compatible printer.
