Intended Use
Agfa's Orthopedic Software is indicated for use with Impax® Workstations in the acquisition, display, digital processing, review, transfer, storage, archiving and printing of medical images and patient demographic information. It is intended for use by physicians to aid in diagnosis, and by medical professionals whenever they require or desire access to medical images and patient demographic information. The software application allows orthopedic surgeons and specialists to assess images, plan surgical procedures, monitor patient progress and educate patients in a digital environment. It allows assessments to be made of geometrical skeletal parameters with comparisons against normative references for adults and children in order to draw therapeutic conclusions. It includes modules for the hip, knee, spine, leg, hand, wrist, elbow, shoulder, foot, ankle and fractures (trauma planning). Users can access a library of manufacturers electronic templates intended to assist in the selection and positioning of implants and the marking of tissues prior to surgery.

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).

# A. LEGALLY MARKETED PREDICATE DEVICES
This is a 510(k) for Agfa's Orthopedic Software for Impax Workstations. The predicate devices are Agfa's previous orthopedic workstation, the OT-3000 (K050751) and Cedara Software Corporation's I-SoftView Orthopedic Tools Set (K022881). The new device is nearly identical to Agfa's previous version, except for the addition of a spine-planning module. The Cedara predicate includes a spine module.
#### B. DEVICE DESCRIPTION
The new device is nearly identical to the Agfa predicate (OT-3000). It includes tools for performing common hip, knee and spine measurements, and provides access to orthopedic device manufacturers electronic templates. The measurements and tools enable planning of orthopedic procedures, monitoring patient progress and patient communications.
The orthopedic application is compatible with multiple workstations and Impax® software versions. User may purchase a complete set of tools or individual modules depending on their needs.
The basic principles of operation of the new and predicate devices are the same.
#### C. INTENDED USE
Workstations are intended for use in the acquisition, display, digital processing, review, transfer, storage, archiving and printing of medical images and patient demographic information. They allow the user to adjust image densities (window/level), perform basic length and angle measurements and highlight regions of interest. They have the ability to use 2D, 3D and time series (cine) images and data. They are intended for

use by physicians to aid in diagnosis, and by medical professionals whenever thev require or desire access to medical images and patient demographic information.
The software application allows orthopedic surgeons and specialists to assess images, plan surgical procedures, monitor patient progress and educate patients in a digital environment.
It allows assessments to be made of geometrical skeletal parameters with comparisons against normative references for adults and children in order to draw therapeutic conclusions. It includes modules for the hip, knee, spine, leg, hand, wrist, elbow, shoulder, foot, ankle and fractures (trauma planning). Users can access a library of manufacturers electronic templates intended to assist in the selection and positioning of implants and the marking of tissues prior to surgery.
#### SUBSTANTIAL EQUIVALENCE SUMMARY D.
Agfa's Orthopedic Software for Impax Workstations have the same indications for use as the legally marketed predicate devices. It is nearly identical to the Agfa predicate (the OT-3000, K050751) except for the new spine module, which is included in the Cedara predicate (K022881).
This change in indication does not modify the intended diagnostic effect: To assist in surgical planning; monitor patient progress and communicate with the patient.
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. Users identify physiological landmarks on medical images. The software calculates commonly used measurements based on those landmarks. The software also allows the user to overlay electronic templates of orthopedic implants provided by implantable device manufacturers.
### F. TESTING
Aqfa's Impax® PACS Systems have been tested for compatibility with the revised orthopedic application.
Correct operation of the new spinal measurements has been confirmed with medical images in laboratory testing.

## 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.
