Bench testing only; no clinical data provided.

## Technological Characteristics

Software-based 3D visualization module; operates on Dicom Image Manager platform; processes sequential 2D ultrasound images; enables 3D rendering and manipulation; standalone software module.

## Regulatory Identification

A central nervous system fluid shunt is a device or combination of devices used to divert fluid from the brain or other part of the central nervous system to an internal delivery site or an external receptacle for the purpose of relieving elevated intracranial pressure or fluid volume (e.g., due to hydrocephalus). Components of a central nervous system shunt include catheters, valved catheters, valves, connectors, and other accessory components intended to facilitate use of the shunt or evaluation of a patient with a shunt.
