Intended Use

Atlas-Based Autosegmentation is a standalone software application that produces estimates of anatomy boundary contours needed for the creation of a radiotherapy treatment plan.

Device Story

Standalone software application; automates contouring of radiation therapy targets and anatomical structures. Inputs: user-provided medical images. Processing: uses atlas-based autosegmentation via deformable registration algorithms to map pre-segmented atlas images to new patient images. Outputs: estimated anatomy boundary contours. Usage: clinical environment; operated by radiation oncology staff. Workflow: software generates initial contours; clinician exports output to a separate treatment planning system for manual editing, dose calculation, and review. Benefit: increases efficiency in radiotherapy treatment planning by providing a starting point for contouring, reducing manual workload.

Clinical Evidence

No clinical data. Bench testing only. Verification tests were performed in-house to ensure system functionality against design requirements. Clinically oriented validation test cases were executed by customer support personnel to confirm fitness for clinical use.

Technological Characteristics

Standalone software application. Uses deformable registration algorithms for image segmentation. Communicates via DICOM standard. Atlas library is user-expandable. No hardware components; software-only device.

Indications for Use

Indicated for use by clinicians to generate estimated anatomy boundary contours for radiotherapy treatment planning. Not for direct clinical use; requires export to a treatment planning system for editing, review, and approval by qualified clinicians.

Regulatory Classification

Identification

A medical charged-particle radiation therapy system is a device that produces by acceleration high energy charged particles (e.g., electrons and protons) intended for use in radiation therapy. This generic type of device may include signal analysis and display equipment, patient and equipment supports, treatment planning computer programs, component parts, and accessories.

" Atlas-Based Autosegmentation (abbreviated "ABAS") does not directly control the linear accelerator that delivers the radiation. Once completed, contours are sent to a treatment planning system where dose is calculated and contours are adjusted. reviewed, approved by qualified clinicians and subject to quality assurance practices before treatment actually takes place. There is no automatic link between the ABAS software and the linear accelerator. ABAS is not a full treatment planning system and performs only an initial contouring function. However, because previous guidance has held that radiation treatment planning systems are devices of major concern, and because we believe ABAS falls under the larger category of software programs associated with treatment planning, we have assumed a "major" level of concern for the purposes of this submission. {1}------------------------------------------------ Device Description: Contouring of radiation therapy targets and surrounding anatomical structures (also known as image segmentation) is a critical part of radiation treatment planning that can be extremely time consuming. Atlas-Based Autosegmentation (ABAS) is a software application that automates the contouring process using atlas-based autosegmentation. This method uses an already-segmented image set (atlas) to segment a set of new, user-input images using deformable registration algorithms. The contours ABAS generates are not usable for treatment as-is; they must be exported to a treatment planning system for editing. However, Atlas-based Autosegmentation provides a good starting point from which minimal editing is required, enabling the clinician to create a high quality treatment plan more efficiently. Device Intended Use: Atlas-Based Autosegmentation is a standalone software application that produces estimates of anatomy boundary contours needed for the creation of a radiotherapy treatment plan. Summary of Technological Characteristics Compared to Predicate Devices: ABAS is unique compared to substantially equivalent products in that it performs only autosegmentation. BrainLAB's iPlan RT Dose and Phillips/ADAC's Pinnacle are fully functioning treatment planning systems that include autosegmentation, contour editing, dose calculation and plan review. IKOEngelo allows the user to edit contours in addition to providing autosegmentation capability. ABAS's sole function is to automatically generate estimated contours generated are not clinically usable as-is, and ABAS does not offer the tools necessary to edit them. The user must export the segmented image sets to a treatment planning system for contour editing, dose calculation, plan review and other necessary treatment planning activities. ABAS uses an altas-based approach to autosegmentation. like iPlan and IKOEngelo, and allows the user to expand its library of atlases just as Pinnacle3 allows the user to save new models and templates. Like all of the predicate devices, ABAS uses deformable registration and communicates with other treatment planning applications using DICOM. A detailed comparison can be found in section 12 of this submittal. Summary of Clinical Testing: Clinical trials were not performed as part of the development of this product. Clinical testing is not advantageous in demonstrating substantial equivalence or safety and effectiveness of the device since testing can be performed such that no human subjects are exposed to risk. Clinically oriented validation test cases were written and executed in-house by CMS customer support personnel. ABAS was deemed fit for clinical use. Summary of Non-Clinical Testing: Verification tests were written and executed to ensure that the system is working as designed. Pass/fail requirements and results of this testing can be found in the ABAS Verification Test Report, which is included in section 18 of this submittal. ABAS successfully passed verification testing. {2}------------------------------------------------ Image /page/2/Picture/0 description: The image shows the logo for the Department of Health & Human Services - USA.
