# Comparison of Technological Characteristics with the Predicate Device:
Rapid DeltaFuse' predicate device is Rapid (K213165), under regulation 21 CFR §892.2050. Both are SaMD and share the same intended use regarding the mapping of hyperdense and hypodense regions as Automated Radiological Image Processing Software utilized when reviewing neurological images. Rapid DeltaFuse is substantially equivalent to the previously cleared Rapid device when limited to the hyperdense and hypodense mapping using Hounsfield Unit (Hu) Maps. The primary difference in the subject device is the time differentiated overlays of hyperdense and hypodense regions whereas the Rapid Platform provides additional independent analysis not included in the subject device. The devices have similar technological characteristics, and principles of operation regarding the limited features provided in the subject device. Rapid DeltaFuse raises no new issues of safety or effectiveness when compared with Rapid. Verification and validation testing confirms the software reliably processes and supports analysis of NCCT medical images for visualization of change. Thus, Rapid DeltaFuse software is substantially equivalent, when compared to the specific hyperdense and hypodense features of the predicate.
