Maximum/Minimum Intensity Projection (MIP) . Image Contrast Manipulation . Image Zoom Manipulation . Automatic registration with Mutual Information Technique . ## Device Story Clarity PET is a medical diagnostic workstation software for display, review, 3D multiplanar reconstruction (MPR), communication, and archiving of medical images. It accepts various manufacturer image formats and DICOM-formatted images. The device performs image processing tasks including maximum/minimum intensity projection (MIP), contrast manipulation, zoom manipulation, and automatic image registration using mutual information techniques. It operates on the Microsoft Windows platform. Used in clinical settings, the software serves as an aid to physicians for image interpretation; it does not provide a final diagnosis but integrates into the physician's clinical workflow to assist in forming a final interpretation. It benefits patients by facilitating the review and analysis of PET imaging data. ## Clinical Evidence No clinical data provided. The device relies on bench testing and demonstration of substantial equivalence to predicate devices for image processing and display functionality. ## Technological Characteristics Software-based medical image workstation. Supports DICOM and various manufacturer-specific image formats. Operates on Microsoft Windows OS. Features include 3D MPR, MIP, image contrast/zoom manipulation, and automatic registration via mutual information technique. ## Regulatory Identification An emission computed tomography system is a device intended to detect the location and distribution of gamma ray- and positron-emitting radionuclides in the body and produce cross-sectional images through computer reconstruction of the data. This generic type of device may include signal analysis and display equipment, patient and equipment supports, radionuclide anatomical markers, component parts, and accessories. ## Predicate Devices - Medical Image Merge ([K001276](/device/K001276.md)) ## Reference Devices - Syngo Multi-Modality Workstation ([K010938](/device/K010938.md)) - ADAC Laboratories Image Fusion and Review System ([K973233](/device/K973233.md)) - GE Advantage Windows Workstation ([K960613](/device/K960613.md)) ## Submission Summary (Full Text) > This content was OCRed from public FDA records by [Innolitics](https://innolitics.com).
