Intended Use

eRAD PACS/ eRAD RIS/PACS is a PACS software product used to receive DICOM images, scheduling information and textual report, organize and store them in an internal format, and to make that information available across a network via web and customized user interfaces. The eRAD PACS/ eRAD RIS/PACS viewer software is intended for use as a primary diagnostic and analysis tool for diagnostic images. eRAD PACS/ eRAD RIS/PACS is for hospitals, imaging centers, radiologists, reading practices and any user who requires and is granted access to patient image, demographic and report information. The eRAD PACS/ eRAD RIS/PACS viewer displays images from CT, computed radiography, MRI, mammography, nuclear medicine, PET, secondary capture, ultrasound, x-ray angiography, x-ray fluoroscopy and visible light modalities. Lossy compressed mammography images and digitized film screen mammography images must not be reviewed for primary image interpretations. Mammography images may only be interpreted using an FDA approved monitor that offers at least 5 mega-pixel resolution and meets other technical specifications reviewed and accepted by FDA.

Device Story

eRAD PACS/RIS is a software-based Picture Archiving and Communication System. It receives DICOM images, scheduling data, and reports; organizes and stores them; and distributes them across networks via web/customized interfaces. Components include acquisition modules, a central systems manager, diagnostic viewers, and archiving storage. The system retrieves prior studies, registers images, and manages worklists. Radiologists use diagnostic workstations to view images and dictate reports; the system supports playback and transcription. Reports are then accessible to referring physicians or exported to other information systems. The device is used in clinical settings (hospitals, imaging centers) by radiologists and authorized personnel. It facilitates clinical decision-making by providing centralized access to patient imaging and diagnostic reports, improving workflow efficiency and diagnostic capability.

Clinical Evidence

Bench testing only. System verification and validation testing were conducted in accordance with international standards and internal design requirements to confirm performance and substantial equivalence to the predicate device.

Technological Characteristics

Software-only PACS system. Supports DICOM standard for image acquisition and communication. Web-based and customized user interfaces for image viewing and report management. Compatible with various imaging modalities (CT, MRI, PET, etc.). Requires FDA-approved 5MP monitors for primary mammography interpretation. Operates as a networked system for image/data storage and retrieval.

Indications for Use

Indicated for use by hospitals, imaging centers, radiologists, and reading practices as a primary diagnostic and analysis tool for viewing and managing medical images (CT, CR, MRI, mammography, nuclear medicine, PET, ultrasound, angiography, fluoroscopy, visible light). Contraindicated for primary interpretation of lossy compressed or digitized film-screen mammography 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).

The data flow is such that patient and procedure information is optionally delivered to the central system manager, followed by the acquisition of the image objects directly from the image sources or by one of the acquisition components. After receiving the procedure information or after receiving image objects, the central system manager searches for and retrieves relevant prior procedure data from the archiving a component. When the central system manager registers the acquired image objects and the retrieved prior procedure data, a user can access the information by selecting the item from the operator worklist.

The logo is simple, modern, and easily recognizable. transmitted to and rendered on the user's workstation using the diagnostic viewing components. After using the workstation to view the images, the user optionally dictates a report into the system, after which, a user can play back the diction and transcribe it to text. Once eRAD PACS's central system manager registers a report, the report is available for access by the referring physician, or it can be exported into an information system. At some configured point in time, the image data and the report information is delivered to the archiving component for backup and long-term storage. ### Intended Use: . . eRAD PACS/ eRAD RIS/PACS is a PACS software product used to receive DICOM images, scheduling information and textual report, organize and store them in an internal format, and to make that information available across a network via web and customized user interfaces.
