Intended Use

WebPAX is intended for use in the communication and storage of medical images. WebPAX is also intended for use in viewing medical images and making geometric measurements on medical images over the world wide web.

Device Story

WebPAX is a PACS software package for communication, storage, and viewing of medical images; operates over TCP/IP networks on standard computer platforms. Inputs consist of DICOM-compliant images received from scanners or workstations. Device enables geometric measurements on images; output is displayed for physician review. Used by clinicians to facilitate image management and clinical decision-making; does not control life-sustaining devices or contact patients. Human intervention is required for interpretation of displayed information.

Clinical Evidence

Bench testing only. Comparison of geometric measurements performed on a plurality of medical imaging modalities between WebPAX and the predicate device. No statistically significant differences were detected.

Technological Characteristics

Software-based PACS; operates on standard commercially-available computer platforms via TCP/IP networks. Utilizes DICOM communication standards for image transfer and digital storage on hard disk drives. Does not contact patients. No energy source or specific material construction relevant to patient interaction.

Indications for Use

Indicated for the communication, storage, and viewing of medical images, and for performing geometric measurements on such images, for use by clinicians in a professional healthcare 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).

Predicate Devices

• LEONARDO syngo Cardiology Workstation (K042203)

### (4) Description of Device

WebPAX is an integrated software and hardware package capable of communicating and storing medical images. WebPAX provides users with capabilities relating to the transfer, display, and storage of medical images as well as the ability to make geometric measurement of

features within the medical images. WebPAX is designed to be deployed over conventional TCP/IP networks and interacts with standard commercially-available computer platforms. WebPAX does not produce any original medical images have been received from DICOM compliant scanners and workstations.

#### (5) Intended Use

WebPAX is intended for use in the communication and storage of medical images. WebPAX is also intended for use in viewing medical images and making geometric measurements on medical images over the world wide web.

#### (6) Technological Characteristics

Like the predicate device, WebPAX does not contact the patient nor does it control any life sustaining devices. A physician, providing ample opportunity for competent human intervention, interprets the images and information being displayed. The communication and storage components of the WebPAX system are essentially identical to those of the predicate device (eg. DICOM communication over TCP/IP networks, digital image storage on computer hard disk drives). Substantial equivalence of the geometric measurement component was determined based on non-clinical testing (see next section).

### PART (b) - Performance Data

#### (1) Non-Clinical Tests

Medical images based on a plurality of imaging modalities were pushed to the predicate device using a standard DICOM network transfer. The identical mages were pushed to the WebPAX system using the same standard DICOM network transfer. On both systems, geometric measurements were made on the plurality of medical images in a plurality of identical locations within each of the images and the results recorded for statistical comparison.

#### (2) Clinical Tests

Not applicable.

#### (3) Conclusions Drawn From Tests

No statistically significant differences were detected when comparing geometric measurements made using the WebPAX system with those of the predicate device. We conclude that the WebPAX system is substantially equivalent.
