Intended Use

The KINEGRAPH VMA™ software is a quantitative imaging software application intended to be used to process digital image files. It is designed for physicians and clinical professionals who are interested in the analysis of motion in medical images, particularly in musculoskeletal images of the spine. KINEGRAPH VMA™ software permits users to review static and dynamic digital lumbar spine images acquired with the assistance of the MOTION NORMALIZER™ patient handling and data collection device, which is designed for use by imaging technicians and intended to assist with patient lumbar bending and data collection during imaging. KINEGRAPH VMA™ software also facilitates quantitative assessment of vertebral motion in digital medical images. Information about the motion of selected objects, such as bone structures, can be generated and presented in the form of a 'motion analysis' report containing graphics. charts, and text.

Device Story

System comprises KINEGRAPH VMA™ software and MOTION NORMALIZER™ patient handling device. Input: fluoroscopic image data and patient motion data collected during lumbar bending. Operation: MOTION NORMALIZER assists patient movement; system captures and records fluoroscopic images and motion data; software processes digital files to quantify vertebral motion. Output: motion analysis report with graphics, charts, and text. Used in clinical settings by imaging technicians (data collection) and physicians (analysis). Healthcare providers use output to assess spinal motion, aiding clinical decision-making regarding musculoskeletal conditions.

Clinical Evidence

Bench testing only. Performance data includes repeatability and accuracy testing of the integral system. No clinical data presented.

Technological Characteristics

System consists of KINEGRAPH VMA™ software on Off-the-Shelf (OTS) workstation and MOTION NORMALIZER™ accessory. MOTION NORMALIZER uses powered electromechanical components controlled by console-mounted OTS computer. System captures fluoroscopic images and motion data, outputting DICOM-compatible files. Software performs quantitative analysis of vertebral motion.

Indications for Use

Indicated for physicians and clinical professionals requiring quantitative analysis of vertebral motion in musculoskeletal digital lumbar spine images. Used in conjunction with the Motion Normalizer device for patient lumbar bending and data collection during imaging.

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).

It is designed for physicians and {1}------------------------------------------------ clinical professionals who are interested in the analysis of motion in medical images, particularly in musculoskeletal images of the spine. KINEGRAPH VMA™ software permits users to review static and dynamic digital lumbar spine images acquired with the assistance of the MOTION NORMALIZER™ patient handling and data collection device, which is designed for use by imaging technicians and intended to assist with patient lumbar bending and data collection during imaging. KINEGRAPH VMA™ software also facilitates quantitative assessment of vertebral motion in digital medical images. Information about the motion of selected objects, such as bone structures, can be generated and presented in the form of a 'motion analysis' report containing graphics. charts, and text. ### TECHNOLOGICAL CHARACTERISTICS / PRINCIPLES OF OPERATION The subject device consists of the KINEGRAPH VMA™ software that analyzes images from the MOTION NORMALIZER™ on an Off-the-Shelf ("OTS") imaging workstation. The MOTION NORMALIZER patient handling and data collection device is an accessory device to the KINEGRAPH VMA™ software that is used to assist with subject lumbar bending and data collection while images are captured with standard fluoroscopes. The MOTION NORMALIZER is comprised of two powered, electromechanical patient handling devices connected to and controlled by a consolemounted OTS computer running custom software connected to various OTS hardware accessories. The subject system is able to capture and record fluoroscopic image data, as well as data from the patient handling devices, and to output this data into DICOM compatible digital image files for analysis using the KINEGRAPH VMA™ software. #### PERFORMANCE DATA The KINEGRAPH VMA™ software and its accessory device, the MOTION NORMALIZER™, have been designed and developed in accordance with FDA regulations, including validation and verification testing per FDA recognized standards. In addition, repeatability and accuracy testing was performed for the integral system. In all instances, the KINEGRAPH VMA™ software and its accessory device, the MOTION NORMALIZER™, functioned as intended. # SUBSTANTIAL EQUIVALENCE The KINEGRAPH VMA™ software and its accessory device, the MOTION NORMALIZER™, has the same intended use and indications for use, technological characteristics, and principles of operation as the identified predicate devices. The minor technological differences between the KINEGRAPH VMA™ software and its accessory device, the MOTION NORMALIZER™, and the predicate devices raise no new issues of safety or effectiveness. Validation and verification data (including software validation) demonstrate that the subject device functions as intended, and performs functions substantially equivalent to the predicate devices. {2}------------------------------------------------ Image /page/2/Picture/0 description: The image shows the logo for the Department of Health & Human Services (HHS).
