Indications for Use

The IQQA-Chest is a PC-Based, self-contained, non-invasive image analysis package used during the review of digital chest radiographic images. Combining image viewing, evaluation and reporting tools, the software is designed to support the physician in the identification of lung lesions (e.g. nodules), as well as the confirmation, evaluation and documentation of such physician-identified lesions. The IQQA-Chest software package supports a workflow based on automated segmentation for the visual identification of possible lesions. The tools also allow for regional analysis of possible lesions in terms of size, shape and position, thus aiding the physician in the characterization of physician-identified suspicious lesions. Image source: DICOM

Device Story

IQQA-Chest is a PC-based software package for digital chest radiographic image analysis. It ingests DICOM images; provides viewing tools (window level, pan, zoom); and utilizes automated segmentation to identify potential lung lesions. The software assists physicians by highlighting regions meeting intensity and shape constraints correlating with nodules. It enables regional analysis (size, shape, position) of physician-identified lesions to aid characterization and documentation. Used in clinical settings by physicians, the output supports clinical decision-making regarding lesion evaluation and patient management. It benefits patients by providing quantitative support for lesion identification and follow-up.

Clinical Evidence

Bench testing only. Software testing and validation were performed according to internal company procedures and written test protocols. Results were reviewed by technical professionals to confirm performance satisfies design intent.

Technological Characteristics

PC-based software package; runs on standard PC hardware with Windows OS. Features graphical user interface for image viewing, automated segmentation, and quantitative measurement tools. Inputs via DICOM. No specific hardware materials or energy sources listed; software-only device.

Indications for Use

Indicated for use by physicians to support identification, confirmation, evaluation, and documentation of lung lesions (e.g., nodules) in digital chest radiographic images.

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).
