## Intended Use

Olea Sphere V3.0 is an image processing software package to be used by trained professionals including, but not limited to, physicians and medical technicians. The software runs on a standard "off-the-shelf" workstation and can be used to perform image viewing, processing, image collage and analysis of medical images. Data and images are acquired through DICOM compliant imaging devices and modalities. Olea SphereV3.0 provides both viewing and analysis capabilities of functional and dynamic imaging datasets acquired with MRI or other relevant modalities, including a Diffusion Weighted MRI (DWI) / Fiber Tracking Module and a Dynamic Analysis Module (e.g., dynamic exogenous or endogenous contrast enhanced imaging data for MRI and CT). The DWI Module is used to visualize local water diffusion properties from the analysis of diffusion-weighted MRI data. The Fiber Tracking feature utilizes the directional dependency of the diffusion to display the white matter structure in the brain or more generally the central nervous system. The Dynamic Analysis Module is used for visualization and analysis of dynamic imaging data, showing properties of changes in contrast while repeating acquisitions (e.g., over time with or without variable acquisition parameters) where such techniques are useful or necessary. This functionality is referred to as: Perfusion Module - the calculation of parameters related to tissue flow (perfusion) and tissue blood volume. Permeability Module - the calculation of parameters related to leakage of injected contrast material from intravascular to extracellular space. Arterial Spin Labeling (ASL) Module - the calculation of parameters related to tissue flow based on a MR technique using the water in arterial blood as endogenous tracer to evaluate the perfusion. Relaxometry Module - the calculation of parameters related to the MR longitudinal and transversal relaxation time and rate. Metabolic Module - the calculation of parameters related to the fat signal fraction based on a MR technique using opposed-phase imaging.

## Device Story

Olea Sphere V3.0 is a DICOM-compliant PACS software package for medical image viewing, analysis, and post-processing. It runs on standard off-the-shelf workstations in hospitals and imaging centers. The software processes functional and dynamic imaging datasets (MRI/CT) to generate clinical parameters. Key modules include: DWI/Fiber Tracking (visualizing water diffusion and white matter structure); Perfusion/Permeability (calculating tissue flow, blood volume, and contrast leakage); ASL (evaluating perfusion using arterial blood water); Relaxometry (calculating relaxation times/rates); and Metabolic analysis (fat signal fraction). Physicians and technicians use the software to manipulate images, perform multi-slice/3D/follow-up viewing, and generate segmentation masks for volume/surface calculations. The output assists clinicians in diagnosis by providing quantitative functional data derived from temporal signal intensity changes or diffusion properties. The device benefits patients by enabling advanced non-invasive assessment of tissue characteristics and blood flow.

## Clinical Evidence

Bench testing only. Validation included product risk assessment, software module verification, and software validation testing to confirm product specifications and performance equivalence to predicates.

## Technological Characteristics

PACS software for Windows/Linux; DICOM-compliant; utilizes image metadata for processing (zoom, pan, crop, segmentation). Features include multi-slice, mono-slice, MPR/3D, and follow-up views. Modules perform post-processing for DWI, DTI, IVIM, Perfusion, Permeability, ASL, Relaxometry, and Metabolic analysis. Standalone software on off-the-shelf workstations.

#### VI. Summary of the Technical Characteristics

Olea Sphere V3.0 is a PACS software designed to access series of MRI and CT images in DICOM format, which can be used to perform image viewing, processing, image collage and analysis of medical images. The system utilizes the information contained in each image meta-data to compare images and to perform zoom, pan and crop functions.

Olea Sphere V3.0 offers a viewing and analysis module that allows to display simultaneously available DICOM image datasets and to save the results into the DICOM database.

Olea Sphere V3.0 offers four types of display for a particular data set:

- 1. The multi-slice view displays simultaneously all the images of selected series in tabular format where rows represent image series and columns represent cross-sectional levels;
- 2. The mono-slice view displays simultaneously one image of selected series at a given slice location;

{9}------------------------------------------------

Image /page/9/Picture/0 description: The image contains the logo for Olea Medical. The logo consists of a purple and orange cube with a white figure on the orange side and a white molecular structure on the purple side. To the right of the cube is the text "Olea" in purple and "Medical" in orange.

- 3. The MPR/3D view displays selected series in a 3-dimensional projections; and
- 4. The follow-up view displays images of series acquired over time.

The system allows the calculation of surfaces and volumes over a set of images by using "segmentation masks". This also allows the user to optimize selected images by customizing the segmentation masks based on user defined areas and to save the results of this image optimization into PDF format files.
