Intended Use

Brainomix 360 e-CTA is an image processing software package to be used by trained professionals, including, but not limited to physicians and medical technicians. The software runs on standard "off the-shelf" hardware (physical or virtualized) and can be used to perform image viewing, processing, and analysis of images. Data and images are acquired through DICOM compliant imaging devices. Brainomix 360 e-CTA provides viewing and analysis capabilities for imaging datasets acquired with CTA (CT Angiography). Brainomix 360 e-CTA is not intended for mobile diagnostic use. Brainomix 360 e-CTA vessel density asymmetry ratio applies only to the MCA region.

Device Story

Brainomix 360 e-CTA is a DICOM-compliant medical image processing software package running on off-the-shelf server hardware. It ingests CTA images from hospital PACS; utilizes AI/ML algorithms to distinguish bone from vessels and reduce image grain; performs image registration and vessel delineation. The device outputs include 3D-colored overlays visualizing MCA vessel density asymmetry, contrast intensity measurements, and estimated phase. Used in clinical/hospital environments by radiologists and clinicians to aid in clinical decision-making. Clinicians may receive email notifications with compressed preview images; however, diagnostic decisions require viewing non-compressed images on a diagnostic workstation. The device provides quantitative analysis of hemispheric vessel density differences, assisting physicians in evaluating cerebral vascular status.

Clinical Evidence

Retrospective standalone performance study (N=308) using clinical CTA scans from multiple scanner manufacturers (Siemens, GE, Philips, Canon/Toshiba). Primary endpoints: vessel delineation (Vessels DSC) and parenchyma mask (Parenchyma DSC). Results: Vessels DSC 0.955 (95% CI: 0.953, 0.957); Parenchyma DSC 0.999 (95% CI: 0.999, 1.000). Subgroup analyses performed by age, gender, race, clinical site, scanner manufacturer, and stenosis presence. Digital phantom validation confirmed algorithm performance with reduced Mean Absolute Error (MAE) compared to the predicate.

Technological Characteristics

Software-only medical image management and processing system. Runs on standard off-the-shelf physical or virtual servers. Connectivity via DICOM. Features include image registration, vessel delineation, and 3D-colored opacity-graded overlays. Algorithm utilizes a CNN-based AI/ML model for bone/vessel distinction and grain reduction. Compliant with ISO 14971:2019 (risk management), FDA Cybersecurity Guidance, and IEC 81001-5-1.

Indications for Use

Indicated for use by trained professionals (physicians, medical technicians) to perform viewing, processing, and analysis of DICOM-compliant CT Angiography (CTA) images. Vessel density asymmetry ratio analysis is limited to the MCA region. Not intended for mobile diagnostic use.

Device Description Brainomix 360 e-CTA is a medical image visualization and processing software package compliant with the DICOM standard and running on an off-the-shelf physical or virtual server. Brainomix 360 e-CTA allows for the visualization, analysis and post-processing of DICOM compliant CTA images which, when interpreted by a trained physician or medical technician, may yield information useful in clinical decision making. Brainomix 360 e-CTA provides a wide range of basic image viewing, processing and manipulation functions, through multiple output formats. Functionality includes image registration and visualization of large cerebral vessels to provide an analysis of hemispheric difference via contralateral comparison (displayed as a relative percentage). Brainomix 360 e-CTA processes the images using Al/ML algorithms where the input channels will help the software distinguish bone from vessels and reduce image grain. Brainomix 360 e-CTA automatically provides a colored overlay to provide a visual reference of the MCA hemisphere of the brain with lower vessel density, and corresponding contrast intensity measurements and estimated phase. Brainomix 360 e-CTA can connect with other DICOM-compliant devices, for example to transfer CTA scans from a Picture Archiving and Communication System (PACS) to Brainomix 360 e-CTA software for processing. Results and images can be sent to a PACS via DICOM transfer and can be viewed on a PACS workstation or via a web user interface on any machine and accessed within a hospital network and firewall and with a connection to the Brainomix 360 e-CTA software (e.g. a LAN connection). Brainomix 360 e-CTA notification capabilities enable clinicians to preview images via e-mail notification with result image attachments. Images that are previewed via e-mail are compressed, are for informational purposes only, and not intended for diagnostic use beyond notification. Brainomix 360 e-CTA is not intended for mobile diagnostic use. Notified clinicians are responsible for viewing non-compressed images on a diagnostic viewer and engaging in appropriate patient evaluation and relevant discussion with a treating physician before making care-related decisions or requests. # 3.

These results corroborate that the algorithm approach of the proposed device is safe, effective and does not raise different questions of safety and effectiveness to Brainomix 360 e-CTA while slightly improving its performance. #### 4.3 Summary of Standalone Performance Study A retrospective study has been carried out to assess the standalone performance of the processing step of vessel delineation in Brainomix 360 e-CTA in comparison to the predicate (Brainomix 360 e-CTA, K192692). {7}------------------------------------------------ Image /page/7/Picture/0 description: The image shows the logo for BRAINOMIX. The logo consists of a stylized brain icon on the left, followed by the word "BRAINOMIX" in capital letters. The brain icon is a gradient of light blue to dark blue. The letters "AI" in "BRAINOMIX" are also in a similar blue gradient, while the rest of the letters are in a dark gray color. A sample size of 308 Computed Tomography (CTA) brain scans (studies) were obtained from clinical sites in the U.S. The majority of studies came from Boston Medical Centre (BMC), or from referring hospitals in the Massachusetts area (N=179). The remaining studies came from Mayo Clinic Rochester (MCR; N=129). The patient cohort was enriched to ensure the distribution of clinical and demographic variables (e.g., age, gender, race) allows generalizability to the patient population for whom use is intended. The imaging was collected on a variety of different scanner models and manufacturers (Table 8). The dataset included 133 cases from SIEMENS scanners, 96 from GE scanners, 76 from Philips scanners and 4 from Canon/Toshiba scanners. The slice thickness distribution was median 0.75mm [IQR: 0.625 – 0.8] with a minimum of 0.5mm (n=2) and a maximum of 1mm (n=42). In-plane (axial) resolution showed a range of 0.381mm to 0.72mm with a median of 0.49mm. Four different tube voltage (KvP, peak kilovoltage) values were encountered in the dataset (90KvP n=6, 100KvP, n=64; 120KvP n=137 and 140KvP, n=99). Tube current was median of 526mA [IQR: 445mA - 645mA]. With respect to contrast phase during acquisition, 62 studies were Early Arterial (EA), 130 Peak Arterial (PA), 110 in Equilibrium phase (EQ), 3 in Peak Venous (PV), and 3 in Late Venous (LV). All the images used a standard or a soft (low-pass filter) convolution kernel for reconstruction (e.g., STANDARD in GE MEDICAL SYSTEMS). The cases (n=308) were all successfully processed with the algorithm. The global results are shown below in Table 3, the Dice Similarity Score is 0.955 reaching for the vessel delineation and 0.999 for the parenchyma mask as the desired requirement. Table 3.

Prescriptive Statement Caution: Federal law restricts this device to sale by or on the order of a physician. {9}------------------------------------------------ Image /page/9/Picture/0 description: The image shows the logo for BRAINOMIX. The logo consists of a stylized brain icon on the left, followed by the word "BRAINOMIX" in a sans-serif font. The brain icon is a gradient of blue and teal, while the letters "A" and "I" in "BRAINOMIX" are also in the same gradient, providing a visual connection between the icon and the text. ## 6. Safety and Effectiveness Brainomix 360 e-CTA has been designed, verified and validated in compliance with 21 CFR, Part 820.30 requirements. The device has been designed to meet the requirements associated with ISO 14971:2019 (risk management). # 7. Cybersecurity Brainomix 360 e-CTA has been designed and validated to the FDA Cybersecurity Guidance and IEC 81001-5-1. ## 8. Summary of Technological Characteristics Brainomix 360 e-CTA includes similar CTA processing features and technological characteristics as compared to the predicate devices. Where the proposed device differs from the predicate devices, is that it provides three new claims listed below: - 1. Algorithm: The proposed device introduces an Al/ML algorithm which was not present in the primary predicate (Brainomix e-CTA). The input channels are intended to help the software distinguish bone from vessels which leads to improved image quality (less grain) as well as improved vessel detection, which has been extensively validated through digital phantom testing. In summary, the phantom validation results show a reduction in the Mean Absolute Error (MAE) for both hemispheres (4.333% left; 0.611% on the right), which corroborates that the proposed device is safe and effective and does not raise different questions of safety and effectiveness. Furthermore, the use of Al/ML algorithms is similar to the technological characteristics of the secondary predicate (Rapid). - 2. Accessible MIP views: The proposed device introduces posterior views to be accessed through Brainomix 360 e-CTA which was not present in the primary predicate (Brainomix 360 e-CTA). The current MIP views of the primary predicate device (Brainomix 360 e-CTA) already display posterior vessels where this new added view just enables focused visualization of posterior large vessels. Furthermore, there are no separate density analysis performed on the posterior MIPs and therefore this change does not raise different questions of safety and effectiveness. - 3. 3D-colored overlay: The proposed device introduces a 3-dimensional opacity graded overlay to the primary predicate device (Brainomix 360 e-CTA) that helps to visualize the asymmetry in blood vessel density between MCA hemispheres which is calculated via contralateral comparison. This colored overlay is a similar technological characteristic when compared to the secondary predicate device's (Rapid) 2D-colored overlay. The proposed 3D-colored overlay compares to the secondary predicate in that: - Both the outputs 3D-colored overlay in the subject device and the 2D-colored overlay of a. the secondary predicate device are similar as they are a mathematical quantification of image outputs displayed in percentage that provides a reference for the clinician. Furthermore, the intended user is responsible to follow the standard of care and to engage in appropriate patient evaluation based on relevant clinical background before making care-related decisions when using both the proposed device and secondary predicate {10}------------------------------------------------ Image /page/10/Picture/0 description: The image shows the word "BRAINOMIX" in a sans-serif font. The first letter, "B", is in dark gray, while the "A" is in a gradient of blue and green. To the left of the word is a stylized image of a brain, also in a gradient of blue and green. device. Where the features differ is that the proposed overlay (3D-colored overlay) uses a transparency scale instead of a multi-colored scale (secondary predicate device). - b. The proposed overlay (3D-colored overlay) is defined as such given the user's ability to view it through different slices of the DICOM image. However, per slice it is presented as a 2D overlay. The presentation of the outputs of the regions of asymmetry in a transparency scale as compared to a multi-colored scale would not change how the user interacts with the device and the intended use of the overlay and therefore, does not raise new questions of safety and effectiveness. The proposed device (Brainomix 360 e-CTA) and the secondary predicate (Rapid) include similar CTA processing features and technological characteristics as compared to the secondary predicate device. Where technological differences exist, these are predominantly where the predicate device offers more features, functionality and a broader set of imaging indications as compared to the proposed device. The differences in technological characteristics for the proposed device do not raise any new or unanswered questions of safety or effectiveness. ## 9.
