Intended Use

BR-FHUS Viewer 1.0 is intended as a standalone software device installed on a standalone windows-based computer to assist physicians with manipulation and analysis tools in reviewing breast ultrasound images. Images and data are previously recorded from various imaging systems and other sources such as calibrated spatial positioning devices. BR-FHUS Viewer 1.0 provides the capability to visualize two-dimensional ultrasound images along with the scanning paths and position information of probe that stored in the DICOM file in advance.

Device Story

BR-FHUS Viewer 1.0 is a standalone software application for Windows-based PCs used by physicians to review breast ultrasound examinations. It ingests previously recorded DICOM files containing 2D ultrasound images and spatial probe positioning data. The software allows clinicians to visualize these images alongside scanning paths, adjust playback speed, and generate electronic reports or save screenshots. It functions as a review and reporting tool for ultrasound data acquired from external imaging systems and spatial positioning devices. By providing visualization of probe paths and image sequences, it assists physicians in the review process. It does not perform 3D rendering.

Clinical Evidence

Bench testing only. Verification and validation testing were conducted in-house using a breast phantom in a simulated work environment to confirm functional requirements and accuracy. No clinical data was submitted.

Technological Characteristics

Standalone software for Windows-based PCs. Requires minimum Intel Core i5 6400, 8GB RAM, 500GB HDD, and 1920x1080 display. Operates on standard ultrasound data and spatial positioning inputs stored in DICOM format. Features include image playback, screenshot capture, and report generation. Software level of concern is moderate.

Indications for Use

Indicated for use by physicians to assist in the manipulation and analysis of previously recorded breast ultrasound images and associated probe position data.

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).

Performance Data Performance, Verification and Validation testing for BR-FHUS Viewer 1.0 was performed per internal procedures to ensure that all functional requirements have been met, and that core functions execute as expected. Testing was conducted in-house by trained personnel in a simulated workenvironment using breast phantom to obtain the functional and accuracy test results. The result of these tests demonstrate that BR-FHUS Viewer 1.0 validation is with in specification. As such. BR-FHUS Viewer 1.0 is as safe and effective as the predicate devices and is substantially equivalent to existing products on the market today. BR-FHUS Viewer 1.0 indications for use are drawn from the indications for use of a legally marketed predicate device: Tractus TissueMapper Image Reviewer Application. BR-FHUS Viewer 1.0 draws from features of this predicate device. As such, the features provided by BR-FHUS Viewer 1.0 do not in themselves raise new concerns of safety or effectiveness. In all instances, BR-FHUS Viewer 1.0 functioned as intended and the operation observed was as expected. ## 5.7. Substantial Equivalence The intended use, technological characteristics, and major functionality of BR-FHUS Viewer 1.0. are similar to the predicate device. Neither new safety nor new effectiveness issues are introduced during or after using this device. The performance data generated, as described, demonstrates that our device is as safe and effective, as compared to the predicate device. Therefore, we believe BR-FHUS Viewer 1.0 is substantially equivalent to the predicate device.
