Intended Use
The ResolutionMD™ 2.1 is a software-based Picture Archiving and Communication System (PACS) used with general purpose computing hardware for the display and 3D visualization of medical image data. It provides for communication, storage, reformatting, rendering, and display of DICOM 3.0 compliant image data derived from various sources including CT and MRI. The ResolutionMD™ 2.1 device incorporates a Calcium Scoring module which is used to identify and quantify calcified plaque within the coronary arteries. This protocol is performed on noncontrast enhanced cardiac CT data sets. It also includes the Coronary Artery Analysis protocol which is used to visually identify and measure stenoses in the coronary arteries. This protocol is performed on contrast-enhanced cardiac CTA data sets. The ResolutionMD™ 2.1 software is intended for use as a diagnostic, review, and analysis tool by trained professionals such as physicians, technologists, and nurses. When interpreted by a trained physician, reviewed images may be used as an element for diagnosis. It is the user's responsibility to ensure that the software is installed on appropriate hardware and that image quality is suitable for the clinical application. Calgary Scientific recommends that users of the ResolutionMD™ 2.1 software consult the appropriate American College of Radiology Practice Guidelines pertaining to the anatomy and pathology being studied. 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 technical specifications reviewed and accepted by FDA.
Device Story
ResolutionMD 2.1 is a software-based PACS for display and 3D visualization of DICOM 3.0 medical images (CT, MRI). Inputs include medical image data; software utilizes dedicated graphics hardware for 3D rendering, MIP, and MPR. Features include 2D/3D measurements, calcium scoring, and coronary artery analysis. Used in clinical settings by physicians, technologists, and nurses. Output is displayed on general-purpose computing hardware; interpreted by physicians to support clinical diagnosis. Benefits include enhanced visualization and quantitative analysis of cardiac data to assist in identifying plaque and stenoses.
Clinical Evidence
No clinical data provided. Substantial equivalence is based on bench testing, hazard analysis, and verification of software functionality on supported platforms. Beta testing by cardiology professionals and potential customers was conducted prior to release to ensure performance against predefined criteria.
Technological Characteristics
Software-based PACS; DICOM 3.0 compliant. Supports Windows, .NET SDK, Linux, and Mac OS. Utilizes dedicated graphics hardware for 3D rendering. Features include 2D/3D visualization, MIP, MPR, calcium scoring, and coronary artery analysis. Connectivity via LAN, WAN, and Web. Software level of concern: minor.
Indications for Use
Indicated for use by trained professionals (physicians, technologists, nurses) for display, 3D visualization, and analysis of DICOM 3.0 medical images (CT, MRI). Includes modules for identifying/quantifying coronary artery calcified plaque (non-contrast cardiac CT) and identifying/measuring coronary artery stenoses (contrast-enhanced cardiac CTA). Contraindicated 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).

#### Device Description:
The ResolutionMD™ 2.1 is a software based Picture Archiving and Communication System (PACS) used with general purpose computing hardware for the display and 3D visualization of medical image data. It provides for communication, storage, processing, rendering, and display of DICOM 3.0 compliant image data derived from various sources including CT and MRI. The ResolutionMD™ software takes advantage of dedicated graphics hardware to speed the creation 3D rendered images.
The ResolutionMD™ 2.1 is available in a Microsoft Windows version, a Microsoft .NET software development kit version (SDK), a Linux Web server version and in a Macintosh OS version. All versions offer similar functionality. Available functions include DICOM communication, display of 2D images in original planes, computation and display of rendered 3D images and maximal intensity projection (MIP) and multiplanar reconstruction images (MIP/MPR), 2D and 3D image measurements, calcium scoring, and coronary artery analysis. The user controls these functions with a system of interactive menus and tools.
A hazard analysis has been conducted and the level of concern has been classified as minor. The ResolutionMD™ 2.1 software will be extensively tested on supported platforms by members of the development and quality control team prior to beta testing. Beta testing by trained cardiology professionals and potential customers will be completed prior to product release. The release version of the software will be required to pass all tests considered critical in terms of patient safety and demonstrate an overall acceptable performance for release as determined by the predefined release criteria.
