Intended Use

The Thoth ToPACS is an image management system whose intended use is to provide (scaleable ) DICOM compatible PACS solutions for hospital and related institutions/sites, which will archive/ distribute/ retrieve and display images and data from all hospital modalities (such as CR, CT, DR, MR and other devices) and information systems. Lossy Compressed Mammographic Images and Digitized Film Screen Images must not be reviewed for primary Image interpretations. Mammographic Images may only be interpreted using an FDA approved monitor that offers at least 5 Mpixel resolution and meets other specifications reviewed and accepted by FDA

Device Story

ToPACS is a standalone software-based Picture Archiving and Communication System (PACS) for hospitals and clinical institutions. It ingests medical images and data from various modalities (CR, CT, DR, MR) via DICOM protocols. The software provides tools for image processing, measurement, communication, and storage on general-purpose computing hardware. It is operated by healthcare professionals; the system does not contact the patient or control life-sustaining equipment. Physicians use the displayed output to interpret clinical information and make diagnostic decisions. The device facilitates clinical workflow by enabling the retrieval and distribution of diagnostic images across hospital sites. It benefits patients by providing timely access to medical imaging data for clinical review.

Clinical Evidence

Bench testing only. No clinical data provided.

Technological Characteristics

Standalone software package for general-purpose computing hardware. DICOM compatible. Functions include image processing, measurement, communication, and storage. Software-based; no specific hardware requirements other than general-purpose compatibility. Level of concern: minor.

Indications for Use

Indicated for use by licensed professionals in hospital and clinical settings to archive, distribute, retrieve, and display medical images and data from various modalities (CR, CT, DR, MR). Not for primary interpretation of lossy compressed mammographic images or digitized film screen images.

Regulatory Classification

Identification

A medical image management and processing system is a device that provides one or more capabilities relating to the review and digital processing of medical images for the purposes of interpretation by a trained practitioner of disease detection, diagnosis, or patient management. The software components may provide advanced or complex image processing functions for image manipulation, enhancement, or quantification that are intended for use in the interpretation and analysis of medical images. Advanced image manipulation functions may include image segmentation, multimodality image registration, or 3D visualization. Complex quantitative functions may include semi-automated measurements or time-series measurements.

Special Controls

*Classification.* Class II (special controls; voluntary standards—Digital Imaging and Communications in Medicine (DICOM) Std., Joint Photographic Experts Group (JPEG) Std., Society of Motion Picture and Television Engineers (SMPTE) Test Pattern).

Predicate Devices

• KODAK DirectView (K030781)
• PACSPLUS (K023460)
• Ramsoft PACS (K031562)

#### Device Description: ●

· Device Description:
ToPACS is a stand-alone software package that is used on general purpose computing I of ACO is a bains aronivimum hardware requirements are met, the user or system integrator is free to choose his/her own hardware platform micegrator is free to enouse minage processing, measurement, communication and The soltware and is alguing to the specifications that are documented in a Storage. 1011 System Test Plan. Testing is an integral part of Thoth software Thours Process. The software does not contact the patient, nor does it control any life-sustaining devices. A physician has ample opportunity for competent human intervention while interpreting images and clinical information.

#### Intended Use: ●

The Thoth ToPACS is an image management system whose intended use is to provide (scaleable ) DICOM compatible PACS solutions for hospital and related (Sections/sites, which will archive/ distribute/ retrieve and display images and data from all hospital modalities (such as CR, CT, DR, MR and other devices) and information systems.

- Predicated Device: . k030781: KODAK DirectView 5 k023460: PACSPLUS k031562: Ramsoft PACS

#### Statement of Substantial Equivalence: .

Thoth ToPACS is substantially equivalent to RamSoft PACS, PACSPLUS, and Kodak DirectView PACS. The determination of substantial equivalence is not based on an assessment of performance tests. It is our conclusion that there is no software component in ToPACS product or hardware component which would be used in conjunction with ToPACS product that we know of whose failure or latent design flaw would be expected to result in death or injury to a patient. Thus, the "Level of Concern" of ToPACS product is "minor."

#### General Safety and Effectiveness Concerns: ●

ToPACS does not contact the patient, nor does it control any life sustaining devices. A physician, providing ample opportunity for competent human intervention interprets images and information being displayed and printed.
