Intended Use
Vitrea® is a medical diagnostic system that allows the processing, review, analysis, communication and media interchange of multi-dimensional digital images acquired from a variety of imaging devices. Vitrea is not meant for primary image interpretation in mammography. In addition, Vitrea has the following additional indication: The Endovascular Stent Planning Software application is intended for use with CT (computed tomography) images to assist medical professionals in the analysis, treatment and follow-up of aortic vascular disorders that may require a stent procedure. The software provides 3D segmentation of the aorta and initializes stent measurements based on a template provided by the stent manufacturers. The user can review the 2D and 3D images, verify and correct the results of the segmentation and initialization, and generate a report with the stent measurements.
Device Story
Software module for Vitrea system; processes CT images for aortic vascular disorder management. Inputs: CT image data. Processing: automated 3D segmentation of aorta and thrombus; initialization of measurements (diameters, lengths, angles, volumes) using manufacturer-specific stent-graft templates. Outputs: 2D/3D visualizations, stent-graft sizing measurements, and clinical reports. Used in clinical settings by physicians/radiologists for pre-treatment planning and post-treatment follow-up. Workflow includes side-by-side comparative review; user verifies and edits automated segmentation and measurement results. Benefits: facilitates accurate stent sizing and procedural planning.
Clinical Evidence
Bench testing only. Software verification and validation testing confirmed that features function according to requirements and do not negatively impact existing Vitrea system functionality.
Technological Characteristics
Radiological image processing software module; operates on Vitrea platform. Features automated 3D segmentation and measurement initialization based on stent-graft templates. Connectivity: integrates with CT imaging systems. Software-based analysis.
Indications for Use
Indicated for medical professionals to assist in the analysis, treatment, and follow-up of patients with aortic vascular disorders requiring stent procedures using CT 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.
