Regulatory Class: II

Product Code: LLZ

Panel: Radiology

### III. PREDICATE DEVICE

Substantial equivalence is claimed between Simpleware ScanIP Medical and the following legally marketed device:

- Simpleware ScanIP (K142779). ●
Please note that the predicate device applicant 'Simpleware Ltd' and the subject device applicant Simpleware Product Group, Synopsys Northern Europe Ltd., are the same manufacturer - the change in name is the result of Simpleware Ltd. being acquired by Synopsys in 2016. The current device and facility listing for the predicate device is for the Simpleware Product Group, Synopsys Northern Europe.

### Device Description

Simpleware ScanIP Medical is image processing software that enables users to import, visualize, and segment medical images, and export digital 3D models. These models can be used in the software for pre-surgical tasks, and can also be used to produce output files suitable for additive manufacturing (3D printing). Simpleware ScanIP Medical also has functionality for transferring from and to third-party software packages.

Simpleware ScanIP Medical is a modular product, including the following functionalities:

- Import of medical images in various formats

{4}------------------------------------------------

- Transferring files from and to computer-aided design (CAD) software packages
- Image filtering and segmentation tools
- . 2D and 3D visualization of image data and CAD drawings
- . Analysis, measurements, and statistics from 3D image data and CAD drawings
- Generating and exporting meshes to Finite Element (FE) packages.
- Generating and exporting models to CAD software ●
- Support for scripting in a number of programming languages

# Indications for Use

Simpleware ScanIP Medical is intended for use as a software interface and image segmentation system for the transfer of medical imaging information to an output file. It is also intended as pre-operative software for diagnostic and surgical planning.

For these purposes, output files can also be used for the fabrication of physical replicas using traditional or additive manufacturing methods. The physical replicas can be used for diagnostic purposes in the field of orthopedic, maxillofacial and cardiovascular applications.

The software is intended to be used in conjunction with other diagnostic tools and expert clinical judgment.

# Indications for Use Comparison

There are differences between the Indications for Use for the subject and predicate device.

Similarities include:

- The general purpose of diagnostic planning and pre-surgical planning remains the same ●
- There is no change in stated safety and effectiveness

The differences in the Indications for Use exist between the subject and predicate device will be presented and discussed below:

- The introduction of new intended applications is motivated by the expanded scope for 3D printing that can be used for diagnostic planning.
- The wording in the previous predicate statement on 'simulating/evaluating surgical treatment . options' has also been rephrased to "pre-operative software for measuring and treatment planning" to more clearly explain the device's diagnostic function. However, the meaning is the same.
- The description in the predicate device of transferring 'imaging information from a medical scanner such as a CT scanner or Magnetic Resonance Imaging scanner' has been simplified to 'the transfer of medical imaging to an output file', to reflect changes in state-of-the-art for the scope of uses of the software technology.

# Comparison of Technological Characteristics with Predicate Device

Detailed comparison between the subject and predict devices show that the subject device is substantially equivalent in intended use, design, functionality, operating principles, and performance characteristics to the predicate.

The technological similarities between the subject and predicate devices are:

- Both predicate and subject devices are versions of the same software
- Both predicate and subject devices are software interface and image segmentation systems for transferring medical imaging information to an output file, with the goal of being used as preoperative software, and for measuring and treatment planning
- Both predicate and subject device are considered to have a 'Moderate' Level of Concern .

{5}------------------------------------------------

- . Both devices have equivalent image segmentation, measurement and model generation functionality
- . The subject device is a later version of the predicate device, following the same development practices and testing procedures, with verification and validation covering the same areas
- Validation of the subject device shows it to be equivalent in performance to the predicate device

The following technological differences exist between the subject and predicate device:

- Due to the change in scope of the intended use, the subject device's documentation explicitly . references and provides a validation method for the 3D printing of output files for diagnostic purposes in orthopedic, maxillofacial, and cardiovascular applications, whereas this was previously excluded in the predicate device
- o An additional hazard has also been created to reference specific risks and mitigation actions for this purpose
- Supported platforms: in addition to Microsoft Windows, the subject device is supported on . Linux.
- Minor software changes (when it comes to addressing the intended use) exist between the two versions of the same software

# Performance Data

Software verification and validation were carried out based on the "Guidance for the Content of Premarket Submissions for Software Contained in Medical Devices", including verification against defined requirements, validation to intended use, and bench testing.

Validation was carried out for the workflow of going from 3D image to printed model, demonstrating that the anatomical models for cardiovascular, orthopedic, and maxillofacial applications can be printed accurately when using compatible 3D printers. The intention of this testing is to demonstrate that the expanded scope does not raise new issues of safety and performance.

# Nonclinical Tests Relied on for Determination of Substantial Equivalence

Simpleware ScanIP Medical has been bench-tested for its intended use to determine substantial equivalence to the predicate device, including for validating measurement and model accuracy.

# Clinical Tests Relied on for Determination of Substantial Equivalence (if available)

No clinical tests were conducted to determine substantial equivalence.

# Conclusions

The characteristics determining functionality and performance of Simpleware ScanIP Medical are substantially equivalent to the device cleared under K142779:

- . Technological differences between the subject and predicate devices are non-substantial both in terms of functional differences and product development processes
- . Non-clinical bench-testing results demonstrate that the subject device is as safe, effective, and functional as the predicate device
- . The subject device's intended use is still broadly the same as the predicate device, functioning as a software interface and image segmentation system for the transfer of medical imaging information to an output file, and as pre-operative software for diagnostic and surgical planning.
- . The change in indications for use to explicitly include use of output files for diagnostic 3D printing is supported by validation testing
