Attributes
Software as a Medical Device, 3rd-Party Reviewed
Intended Use
The xViewNet software is intended as a display and analysis tool for the interpretation of diagnostic images by trained healthcare professionals, including radiologists, physicians, technologists, clinicians and nurses. It is also intended to provide access to covered entities for clinical review, throughout the healthcare facility and at the point of image acquisition. This device is not intended for mammography use
Device Story
xViewNet is a web-based PACS software for viewing, editing, manipulating, annotating, analyzing, and storing medical images/data. Inputs include medical images from various imaging sources (CR, CT, MR, NM, US, RF, SC, VL) transmitted via TCP/IP. Images are converted to internal formats, cached locally, and processed for display; original pixel data remains unaltered. Features include 3D multiplanar reconstruction, volume rendering, cine-loop, and measurement tools (distance, angle, grey tone). Used in healthcare facilities by clinicians/radiologists for diagnostic interpretation and clinical review. Output is displayed on standard off-the-shelf PC hardware. Enables efficient image access, visualization, and clinical decision-making support.
Clinical Evidence
Bench testing only. No clinical data provided. Evidence consists of risk analysis, requirements reviews, design reviews, module verification, system integration testing, performance testing, and final acceptance validation.
Technological Characteristics
Supports DICOM 3.0; runs on off-the-shelf PC hardware; communicates via TCP/IP. Features: 3D volume rendering, multiplanar reconstruction (coronal, axial, sagittal), cine-loop, window/level adjustment, pixel interpolation, and annotation tools. Software-based image processing.
Indications for Use
Indicated for trained healthcare professionals (radiologists, physicians, technologists, clinicians, nurses) for the display, analysis, and clinical review of diagnostic medical images. Not for mammography.
Regulatory Classification
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).

The emblem has a vintage or slightly distressed appearance, with some areas of the image appearing faded or worn.
acceptance, transmission, printing, display, storage, editing and digital processing of medical images and associated data.
Images sent to xViewNet are converted into formats suitable for viewing in its framework, and temporarily stored in a local cache memory. The algorithms used by xViewNet to view JPEG and JPEG 2000 images follow known and acceptable protocols. Changes may be made to the presentation of the images. These changes are saved as display definitions only and do not alter the acquired image pixel data. Any and all display definitions applied to an image can always be reversed to the acquired state.
The xViewNet software includes advanced visualization such as 3-D multiplanar reconstruction of the 2-D images.
x ViewNet uses standard "off-the-shelf" PC hardware and communicates using the standard TCP/IP stack. The network hardware used to support the TCP/IP stack is superfluous to XViewNet.

Dear Mr. Monroe:
We have reviewed your Section 510(k) premarket notification of intent to market the device referenced above and have determined the device is substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to legally marketed predicate devices marketed in interstate commerce prior to May 28, 1976, the enactment date of the Medical Device Amendments, or to devices that have been reclassified in accordance with the provisions of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (Act) that do not require approval of a premarket approval application (PMA). You may, therefore, market the device, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act. The general controls provisions of the Act include requirements for annual registration, listing of devices, good manufacturing practice, labeling, and prohibitions against misbranding and adulteration.
If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (Premarket Approval), it may be subject to such additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 898. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register.
Image /page/3/Picture/10 description: The image is a circular logo with the letters "FDA" in large, bold font in the center. Above the letters, the numbers "1906-2006" are printed. Below the letters, the word "Centennial" is written in cursive. The logo is surrounded by a circular border with text and stars. The text is difficult to read due to the image quality.
