Intended Use
MIM software is intended for trained medical professionals including, but not limited to, radiologists, oncologists, physicians, medical technologists, dosimetrists, and physicists. MIM is a medical image and information management system that is intended to receive, transmit, store, retrieve, display, print and process digital medical images, as well as create, display, and print reports from those images. The medical modalities of these medical imaging systems include, but are not limited to, CT, MR, CR, DX, MG, US, SPECT, PET and XA as supported by ACR/NEMA DICOM 3.0. MIM provides the user with the means to display, register and fuse medical images from multiple modalities. Additionally, it evaluates cardiac left ventricular function and perfusion, including left ventricular end-diastolic volume, end-systolic volume, and ejection fraction. The Region of Interest (ROI) feature reduces the time necessary for the user to define objects in medical image volumes by providing an initial definition of object contours. The objects include, but are not limited to, tumors and normal tissues. MIM provides tools to quickly create, transform, and modify contours for applications including, but not limited to, quantitative analysis, aiding adaptive therapy, transferring contours to radiation therapy treatment planning systems and archiving contours for patient follow-up and management. MIM aids in the assessment of PET/SPECT brain scans. It provides automated quantitative and statistical analysis by automatically registering PET/SPECT brain scans to a standard template and comparing intensity values to a reference database or to other PET/SPECT scans on a voxel-by-voxel basis, within stereotactic surface projections or standardized regions of interest. MIM allows the dose distribution of an implant to be individually shaped for each patient and is a general-purpose brachytherapy planning system used for prospective and confirmation dose calculations for patients undergoing a course of brachytherapy using permanent implants of various radioisotopes (not including radioactive microspheres). MIM allows voxel-based dose calculations for patients who have been administered radioisotopes or radioactive microspheres. MIM assists with the planning and evaluation of ablation procedures by allowing the energy zone that comprises the ablation zone to be visualized on medical imaging through the placement of virtual ablation devices for the purpose of confirming ablation zone placement.
Device Story
MIM - Dose Analysis is a standalone software application extending MIM - Ablation (K220256). It processes digital medical images (CT, MR, etc.) to perform radiation dose calculations. Key functions include calculating Biologically Effective Dose (BED) and Equieffective Dose (e.g., EQD2), evaluating radiation dose across different image sets using rigid/deformable registration, and accumulating doses from multiple timepoints. Used by clinicians (radiologists, oncologists, physicists) in clinical settings to assist in treatment planning and evaluation. The software transforms input image data and registration objects into quantitative dose metrics. Healthcare providers review these outputs to inform clinical decision-making regarding radiation therapy and patient follow-up. Benefits include improved accuracy in dose assessment and streamlined adaptive therapy workflows.
Clinical Evidence
Bench testing only. No clinical data. Validation included verification of BED, EQD, and TCP calculations against manual calculations using standard Linear-Quadratic (LQ) models. Dose accumulation methods were validated by comparing MIM-calculated doses against manual calculations for datasets linked via rigid and deformable registration. Results confirmed consistency and accuracy within clinical limits.
Technological Characteristics
Standalone software operating on Windows and Apple OS X. Implements rigid and deformable image registration, voxel-based dose calculation, and standard Linear-Quadratic (LQ) BED models. Supports ACR/NEMA DICOM 3.0 standards for image modalities (CT, MR, CR, DX, MG, US, NM, PET, XA).
Indications for Use
Indicated for trained medical professionals to aid in evaluation and information management of digital medical images (CT, MR, CR, DX, MG, US, SPECT, PET, XA). Assists in image processing, reporting, registration/fusion, cardiac function evaluation, contouring, PET/SPECT brain scan analysis, brachytherapy planning, radionuclide dose calculation, and ablation procedure visualization. Not for mammography CAD. Lossy compressed mammographic/digitized film images not for primary interpretation.
Regulatory Classification

# Device Description
MIM – Dose Analysis extends features of MIM – Ablation (K220256). It is designed for use in medical imaging and operates on both Windows and Mac computer systems. MIM - Dose Analysis is a standalone software application that provides:
- Calculation of Biologically Effective Dose (BED) and Equieffective Dose in specified fractions (e.g., EQD2)
- Evaluation of radiation dose on different image sets through the use of rigid and deformable ● registration objects
- Accumulation of doses ●
## Substantial Equivalence
MIM - Dose Analysis is substantially equivalent to the predicate device, MIM - Ablation (K220256). The technological characteristics of MIM - Dose Analysis are supported by the methods in the reference devices, RaySearch RayStation 12A (K222312) and Radformation ClearCheck (K220583).

# Testing and Performance Data
Software verification and validation testing included 2 main sections: BED, EQD, and TCP calculations; and dose accumulation.
BED, EQD, and TCP calculations implemented in MIM were compared against manual calculations using the same equations referenced in literature. Several different applications of the standard Linear-Quadratic (LQ) BED Model were tested. All test results yielded dose and TCP results within acceptable clinical limits when compared to manual calculations.
Dose accumulation was tested by accumulating radiation doses delivered at separate timepoints for each patient dataset. Testing included dose accumulation between separate treatment timepoints linked via rigid and deformable registration objects. Accumulated dose was calculated in MIM at multiple data points within physician-contoured anatomical structures of interest in treatment planning and evaluation, and these dose results were compared against manual dose accumulation calculations. These test results showed consistent and accurate dose accumulation methods applied in MIM.
Altogether, the testing performed validates the adequacy of MIM - Dose Analysis for clinical use and verifies alignment between MIM software, standardized equations referenced in literature, and previously FDA-cleared softwares.
## Conclusion
Based on the Device Description and Testing and Performance Data above, the proposed device is determined to be as safe and effective as the predicate device, MIM - Ablation (K220256). The technological characteristics of the proposed device are adequately supported by the methods in the reference devices. RaySearch RayStation 12A (K222312) and Radformation ClearCheck (K220583).
