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

• OT3000 (K050751)
• Embrace (mammography) workstation (K040555)

### A. LEGALLY MARKETED PREDICATE DEVICES

This is a 510(k) for Agfa's Impax SE SigmaCom Client (PACS Medical Imaging Display Workstation).

The predicate devices are Agfa's previous earlier workstations, the OT3000 (K050751), the Embrace (mammography) workstation (K040555) and the Web1000 remote access workstation (K053458). This new device includes most of the clinical functions of the predicate devices but was developed by Agfa HealthCare Enterprise Solutions, Lognes, France.

#### DEVICE DESCRIPTION B.

The new device is a multifunction PACS workstation for displaying and interpretation of medical images. It includes functions similar to the predicates. It can be used as a general radiography or orthopedic workstation. It displays "for presentation" (MG) mammography images. Image processing is handled by the mammography modalities. It can also display 3D images acquired from CT and MR modalities. It provides user teleradiology functionalities to share information and consult with remote users and can be used to perform quality control activities related to patient images and data.

The principles of operation and technological characteristics of the new and predicate devices are the same.

#### C. INTENDED USE

The IMPAX SE SigmaCom Client Workstations are intended to perform operations relating to the display, digital processing, review, transfer, storage, printing, measurements, teleradiology exchange of medical images and patient demographic information and to be integrated with separately cleared third party applications. They are intended for use by the physician to aid diagnosis and by medical professionals whenever they require access to medical images and patient demographic information.

#### D. SUBSTANTIAL EQUIVALENCE SUMMARY

Agfa's Impax SE SigmaCom Client (PACS Medical Imaging Display Workstation) has the same indications for use as the legally marketed predicate devices with the exception that it does not offer users access to electronic orthopedic device templates.

This indication difference does not modify the intended diagnostic effect: To assist users performing measurements common to the orthopedic specialty.

The new device has the same control methods and operating principles as the predicates. Descriptive characteristics and data provided in this submission are sufficiently precise to assure substantial equivalence.

#### TECHNOLOGICAL CHARACTERISTICS ய்

The technological characteristics are the same in the proposed and predicate devices. Both the new device and the predicates are software applications installed on standard computers.

### F. TESTING

Agfa's Impax SE SigmaCom Client (PACS Medical Imaging Display Workstation) has been tested for conformance to specifications.

### G. CONCLUSIONS

This 510(k) has demonstrated Substantial Equivalence as defined and understood in the Federal Food Drug and Cosmetic Act and various guidance documents issued by the Center for Devices and Radiological Health.

Dear Mr. Holbrook:

We have reviewed your Section 510(k) premarket notification of intent to market the device referenced above and 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) that do not require approval of a premarket approval application (PMA). 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 II (Special Controls) or 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 898. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register.

Image /page/2/Picture/10 description: The image is a black and white circular logo. The logo contains the text "1906-2006" at the top, "FDA" in the center, and "Centennial" at the bottom. There are also three stars at the very bottom of the logo. The logo is surrounded by a dotted border.
