The summary describes a standard medical image viewing software with basic functionalities like selecting, sending, receiving, displaying, and reviewing DICOM images. There is no mention of AI, ML, or any related terms, nor are there descriptions of training or test sets typically associated with AI/ML development.
No
The device is described as medical image viewing software intended for reviewing DICOM images, not for treating diseases or conditions.
No
The device is a medical image viewing software intended for review and display of images, not for providing a diagnosis itself. It is explicitly stated as for "simple medical image viewing" and "clinical image review," which are steps that precede or assist in diagnosis, but do not constitute a diagnostic act by the device itself.
Yes
The device description explicitly states "GE View Applications is medical image viewing software" and describes it as a "2D review application software for a PC/WIN platform," indicating it is a software-only product intended to be installed on existing hardware (PC).
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 device is for "medical image viewing software" to "select, send, receive, and review DICOM images from modalities." This is related to interpreting medical images, not performing tests on biological samples.
- Device Description: The description reinforces that it's "medical image viewing software" for displaying and reviewing patient image data.
- Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of analyzing biological samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.), detecting specific substances, or providing diagnostic information based on laboratory tests.
IVD devices are specifically designed to perform tests on samples taken from the human body to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or treatment. This device is focused on the visualization and review of medical images generated by imaging modalities.
