## Intended Use

The CAAS MRV has been designed for quantitative functional analysis of the left and right ventricle of the heart based on multi-slice, multi-phase cine MRI images. Specifically, it enables the user to: 1. Delineate automatically or semi-automatically the inner and outer wall of the ventricles, as well as the papillary muscles, on the MRI images 2. Derive from these contours the global and regional functional parameters like Ejection Fraction, Stroke Volume, Wall Movement etc. The CAAS MRV has been designed to be used in everyday clinical practice, as well as for research purposes like clinical research trials.

## Device Story

CAAS MRV is a software tool for cardiac functional analysis; inputs multi-slice, multi-phase cine MRI datasets from various vendors via CD-ROM, hard disk, or PACS. Software enables automatic, semi-automatic, or manual delineation of inner/outer ventricular walls and papillary muscles. Transforms contours into quantitative outputs: ventricular volumes, ejection fraction, stroke volume, and regional wall motion. Used in clinical practice and research settings by clinicians. Results displayed on-screen or as hardcopy for diagnostic support and clinical decision-making; benefits include standardized, efficient quantification of cardiac function.

## Clinical Evidence

No clinical data provided; bench testing only.

## Technological Characteristics

Software-based image processing system. Operates on multi-slice, multi-phase cine MRI datasets. Features automated, semi-automated, and manual contouring tools for ventricular wall and papillary muscle segmentation. Outputs include volumetric and motion parameters. Standalone software package.

## Regulatory Identification

A medical image management and processing system is a device that provides one or more capabilities relating to the review and digital processing of medical images for the purposes of interpretation by a trained practitioner of disease detection, diagnosis, or patient management. The software components may provide advanced or complex image processing functions for image manipulation, enhancement, or quantification that are intended for use in the interpretation and analysis of medical images. Advanced image manipulation functions may include image segmentation, multimodality image registration, or 3D visualization. Complex quantitative functions may include semi-automated measurements or time-series measurements.

## Special Controls

*Classification.* Class II (special controls; voluntary standards—Digital Imaging and Communications in Medicine (DICOM) Std., Joint Photographic Experts Group (JPEG) Std., Society of Motion Picture and Television Engineers (SMPTE) Test Pattern).

## Predicate Devices

- MRI-Magnetic resonance Analytical Software System ([K994283](/device/K994283.md))

| The classification name is: | Image Processing System (LLZ), CFR 892.2050.     |

The above as stated in 21 CFR, part 892.1570, has been classified as regulatory Class II.

The CAAS MRV software package is substantially equivalent to the quantitative analysis software package MRI-Magnetic resonance Analytical Software System, K994283.

The CAAS MRV is a software tool designed for the functional analysis of the heart based on multi-slice, multi-phase MR images of the heart. Therefore it provides functionality to import and view cine MR datasets of the heart from several vendors from CDROM, hard disk or (optionally) a PACS system. Next, the inner and outer wall of the ventricles can be determined either automatically, semi-automatically or manually. From these contours the ventricular volume, the ejection fraction and other related parameters are determined. Next to the quantification of the ventricular volumes, also the motion of the ventricular wall is quantified. All results of the analysis are available on screen as well as hardcopy, and can be saved.

The intended use of CAAS MRV is to enable the user to:

1. Delineate the inner and outer wall of the ventricles automatically or semi-automatically, as well as the papillary muscles, on MRI images

2. Derive from these contours the global and regional parameters like Ejection Fraction, Stroke Volume, Wall Movement etc.

The CAAS MRV has been designed to be used in everyday clinical practice to support clinical diagnoses, as well as for research purposes like clinical research trials.

The CAAS MRV is substantially equivalent to the predicate device mentioned in this summary by using the same technological characteristics and intended use.

The CAAS MRV is produced under the same Quality Assurance system applicable to the development and production of products currently marketed by Pie Medical Imaging.
