Device Story

Symbia.net VA10B is a client/server-based software application for viewing and analyzing medical images from SPECT, PET, and CT systems. It enables remote access to MI Applications via standard personal computers or Macs. The system processes imaging data to provide clinicians with tools for assessment and quantification of pathologies. It is intended for use by trained healthcare professionals in clinical settings to support diagnosis, staging, and treatment planning. By allowing deployment on compatible hardware, it facilitates efficient clinical workflows and access to diagnostic information, potentially improving clinical decision-making and patient care through enhanced image visualization and analysis capabilities.

Clinical Evidence

No clinical data provided. Substantial equivalence is based on technical and functional comparisons to predicate devices.

Technological Characteristics

Client/server software architecture; supports SPECT, PET, and CT imaging modalities. Operates on standard personal computers or workstations. Risk management performed per ISO 14971. No specific hardware materials or energy sources defined as it is a software-based PACS/analysis system.

Indications for Use

Indicated for use by trained healthcare professionals to aid in detecting, localizing, diagnosing, staging, and restaging of lesions, tumors, disease, and organ function in patients with cardiovascular disease, neurological disorders, cancer, or other disorders. Used for radiotherapy planning and interventional radiology.

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

• Symbia.net (2009A) (K100619)
• Symbia 4.0 (MI Applications 2009A) (K082506)

#### Device Description:

Symbia.net introduces client/server functionality allowing the MI Applications product to be deployed on any compatible hardware (including desktops, laptops and workstations) that meet minimal hardware requirements. Symbia.net is a solution for SPECT. SPECT-CT. PET. and PET-CT systems.

The software application is provided on a server. Clients running on any personal computer or Mac, meeting minimum requirements, can have access to the system. The rendered images on the client and server side are clinically equivalent with each other. No image quality deqradation on any of the images shown in the clients compared to the images shown on the server related to resolution, color and timing.

#### Safety and Effectiveness:

Risk Management is ensured via a risk analysis in compliance with ISO 14971 to identify and provide mitigation to potential hazards beginning early in the design cvcle and continuing throughout the development of the product. Siemens considers that the proposed device does not introduce new safety concerns, and is substantially the same in indications for use, design, materials, energy sources and technology as the predicate devices. Siemens believes that Symbia.net is substantially equivalent to the predicate devices.

#### Indications for Use:

The Siemens Symbia series is intended for use by appropriately trained health care professionals to aid in detecting, localizing, diagnosing, staging and restaging of lesions, tumors, disease and organ function for the evaluation of diseases and disorders such as, but not limited to, cardiovascular disease, neurological disorders and cancer. The images produced by the system can also be used by the physician to aid in radiotherapy treatment planning and interventional radiology procedures.

Software: The MI Applications software is a display and analysis package intended to aid the clinician in the assessment and quantification of pathologies taken from SPECT. PET. CT and other imaging modalities.

Dear Ms. Chang:

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 class II (Special Controls), it may be subject to such additional controls.
