More Information

No
The summary describes a system for attenuation correction using hardware and software to generate a correction map, which is a standard image processing technique in SPECT, not indicative of AI/ML. There are no mentions of AI, ML, or related concepts, nor descriptions of training or test sets typically associated with AI/ML development.

No.
The device is used to improve the quality of emission SPECT images by attenuation correction, not to treat a disease or condition.

No
The device is used to improve the quality of SPECT images through attenuation correction, not to diagnose a medical condition. It enhances the imaging quality for diagnostic purposes performed by another device.

No

The device description explicitly states that the system "comprises additional hardware and software".

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

Here's why:

  • IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostics are tests performed on samples taken from the human body, such as blood, urine, or tissue, to detect diseases, conditions, or infections.
  • Device Function: The MG ATC system is an add-on to a gamma camera used for emission SPECT imaging. This is an in vivo imaging technique, meaning it involves imaging the body directly, not analyzing samples taken from the body.
  • Intended Use: The intended use is to improve the quality of SPECT images by correcting for attenuation, which is a physical phenomenon that affects the signals detected by the camera within the body.

Therefore, the MG ATC system falls under the category of medical imaging devices, not In Vitro Diagnostics.

N/A

Intended Use / Indications for Use

The intended use of the device is to produce attenuation-corrected NM images, even when attenuation coefficients are not uniform over the FOV.

MG ATC is indicated to improve the quality of emission SPECT images obtained on the Millennium MG dual head camera by attenuation correction.

(a)
Identification. An emission computed tomography system is a device intended to detect the location and distribution of gamma ray- and positron-emitting radionuclides in the body and produce cross-sectional images through computer reconstruction of the data. This generic type of device may include signal analysis and display equipment, patient and equipment supports, radionuclide anatomical markers, component parts, and accessories.(b)

V TransACT: Attenuation Correction System for Dual-Head Variable-Angle Gamma Camera - K980959.

Device Description

The MG ATC attenuation correction system is an optional addition to the Millennium MG gamma camera (K962738). It comprises additional hardware and software to generate a correction map and corrected NM images for non-uniform attenuation.

Description of Change or Modification

The Millennium MG gamma camera (K962738) gamma camera has been modified to accommodate for the MG ATC attenuation correction system, by including an additional correction map for attenuation, obtained by two scanning line sources attached to the heads supports of the camera. This map is used to create an attenuation-corrected image.

Intended Use of Device

The intended use of the device is to produce attenuation-corrected NM images, even when attenuation coefficients are not uniform over the FOV.

Summary of Studies

Bench data and Clinical data show that the MG ATC option delivers better uniformed images than regular SPECT without attenuation correction. Comparison to V TransACT images shows no significant difference.

Dear Mr. Laor:

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 legally marketed predicate 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, market the device, 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 prohibitions 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 determination assumes compliance with the Current Good Manufacturing Practice requirements, as set forth in the Quality System Regulation (QS) for Medical Devices: General regulation (21 CFR Part 820) and that, through periodic QS inspections, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) will verify such assumptions. Failure to comply with the 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 through 542 of 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 notification. 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 (21 CFR Part 801 and additionally 809.10 for in vitro diagnostic devices), please contact the Office of Compliance at (301) 594-4613. Additionally, for questions on the promotion and advertising of your device, please contact the Office of Compliance at (301) 594-4639.
