Radiological Image Processing Software For Radiation Therapy

Page Type
Product Code
Definition
To provide semi-automatic or fully-automated radiological image processing and analysis tools for radiation therapy. Software implementing artificial intelligence (AI) including nonadaptive machine learning algorithms trained with clinical and/or artificial radiological images. In these devices, the algorithm training images typically impact device performance. AI based radiological image processing software is intended to be used in the workflow of radiation therapy. Adaptive AI algorithms are not within the scope of this product code. Primary radiation dose calculation or plan optimization for treatment planning are not within scope of this product code.

CFR § 892.2050 Medical image management and processing system

§ 892.2050 Medical image management and processing system.

(a) 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.

(b) 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).
