Only trained and qualified users, certified in accordance with country-specific regulations, are authorized to operate the system. For example, physicians, radiologists, or technologists. The user must have the necessary U.S. qualifications in order to diagnose or treat the patient with the use of the images delivered by the system.
The software platform provides plugin software interfaces that allow for the use of specific commercially available post processing software algorithms in an unmodified form from the cleared stand-alone post processing version.
New software version syngo CT VB20 (SOMARIS/10 syngo CT VB20) is a modified software version based on syngo CT VB10 (SOMARIS/10 syngo CT VB10) which was cleared for the predicate devices in K233650 (SOMATOM go. Platform) and in K232206 (SOMATOM Pro.Pulse).
Software version SOMARIS/10 syngo CT VB20 will be offered ex-factory and as an optional upgrade for the applicable existing SOMATOM go. Platform and SOMATOM Pro.Pulse CT Scanner Systems.
The bundle approach is feasible for this submission since the subject devices have similar technological characteristics, software operating platform, and supported software characteristics. The supporting data are similar, primarily one review division/group will be involved, and the indications for use is the same between the devices. All subject devices will support previously cleared software and hardware features in addition to the applicable modifications as described within this submission. The intended use remains unchanged compared to the predicate devices.
