Benefits include improved workflow efficiency and data accessibility for cardiology exams.
Clinical Evidence
Bench testing only. No clinical data provided. Substantial equivalence is based on technological comparison, hazard analysis, and performance specifications consistent with predicate devices.
Technological Characteristics
Modular software suite; runs on Intel-based commercial hardware; Windows NT/2000/XP OS. Connectivity via DICOM 3.0 (Store SCP, Verification, Storage Commit), Philips HSDII, and Philips SONOS. Supports multimodality image display (up to 60 fps), annotation, and digital zoom. Software is classified as minor level of concern.
Indications for Use
Indicated for the import, export, storage, archiving, review, analysis, reporting, and database management of multimodality digital medical images in a cardiology clinical setting.
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).

#### Information Supporting Substantial Equivalence Determination II
#### System Description:
Philips "Harmony" software is a suite of DICOM products containing scalable levels of modular software programs, designed to perform the necessary functions required for the import/export/storage/archiving/review/analysis/reporting and database management of digital cardiovascular images within the cardiology domain.
It allows multiple users quick access to, and exchange of specific and/or multiple cardiology exams.
Because of the open architecture, the "Harmony" software will run on Intel based commercial hardware under Microsoft Windows based operating systems. Together with the modular design it allows the user to tailor the image import, archive and communications solution to his particular budgetary and performance needs and the number of modalities and reporting and/or viewing sites he decides to connect. PHILIPS will guarantee stability and (different levels of) performance when used with specific hardware configurations and network infrastructure.
The following packages are marketed:
- Standalone Workstation .
- Integrated Workstation network solution ●
- Base, Advanced and Premium network solutions .
These software packages will be delivered on a set of CD-ROMs, which contain the installation application, the application software, the service software and an electronic copy of the instructions for use.
#### Intended Use:
Philips "Harmony" software package is an integrated multimodality image and information system designed to perform import, export, storage, archiving, review, analysis, reporting and database management of digital medical images.
#### Substantial equivalence:
