Intended Use
The VIDA Pulmonary Workstation 2 (PW2) software provides reproducible CT values for pulmonary tissue, which is essential for providing quantitative support for diagnosis and follow up examinations. The PW2 can be used to support the physician in the diagnosis and documentation of pulmonary tissue images (e.g., abnormalities) from CT thoracic datasets. Three-D segmentation and isolation of sub-compartments, volumetric analysis, density evaluations, low density cluster analysis and reporting tools are combined with a dedicated workflow. The VIDA Pulmonary Workstation 2 (PW2) software package is also intended to be a real-time interactive evaluation in space and time for CT volume data sets that provides the reconstruction of two-dimensional images into a three-dimensional image format.
Device Story
PW2 is a self-contained image analysis software package for pulmonary CT thoracic datasets. It imports 2D CT slice data to reconstruct 3D models. Physicians use the workstation to visualize and analyze lung parenchyma and bronchial airways. Core functions include 3D segmentation, isolation of sub-compartments, volumetric analysis, density evaluations (Hounsfield units), and low-density cluster analysis. The software automates tedious manual tracing tasks to provide quantitative measurements and aggregate statistics, assisting in therapy effectiveness assessment and clinical decision-making. It does not interface directly with CT scanners; it processes previously generated data files. The output is displayed to the physician for diagnostic support and documentation.
Clinical Evidence
No clinical data. Bench testing only, including software development, verification, and validation testing to ensure performance and safety.
Technological Characteristics
Software-based image analysis workstation. Processes CT voxel data using Hounsfield units (HU) for tissue characterization. Features 3D segmentation, volumetric analysis, and airway tree extraction. Operates on imported CT datasets. No direct hardware interface. Voluntary standards used for development and manufacturing processes.
Indications for Use
Indicated for use by physicians to support diagnosis and documentation of pulmonary tissue abnormalities in CT thoracic datasets. Provides quantitative support for diagnosis and follow-up examinations of chest diseases.
Regulatory Classification
Identification

#### 4. Device Description
VIDA Pulmonary Workstation 2 (PW2) is a self-contained image analysis software package. This real-time interactive evaluation in space and time for CT volume data sets provides the reconstruction of two-dimensional images into a three-dimensional image format. VIDA Pulmonary Workstation 2 (PW2) can be used to support the physician in the diagnosis and documentation of chest diseases, e.g. when examining the pulmonary tissue (i.e. lung parenchyma) in CT thoracic datasets. Evaluation tools (3D seamentation & isolation of sub-compartments. volumetric analysis, density evaluations, and low density cluster analysis) and reporting tools are combined with a dedicated workflow.
The PW2 is designed to analyze pulmonary CT slice data and display analysis results. Each voxel of the scan is measured by Hounsfield units (HU), a measurement of x-ray attenuation that is applied to each volume element in threedimensional space ("voxel"). The HU are utilized to distinguish between air, water, tissue and bone, such distinction is common in the industry. Figure 1 shows the basic Input/ Output of the CT volume converting to a digitized, colorized picture.

Image /page/3/Figure/2 description: The image shows a diagram of an airway tree extraction process. On the left side of the image, the input is a CT volume with dimensions 512x512x550 voxels, a voxel size of 0.65x0.65x0.6 mm^3, a 16-bit gray-scale, and a size of 250-300 MByte. On the right side of the image, the output is a binary image of the airway tree.
Figure 1: Input/ Output
PW2 provides computed tomography (CT) viewing, airway analysis, and parenchymal density analysis in one application. PW2 provides imaging of bronchial airways that can be used to assess therapy effectiveness based on CT scan data. PW2 reconstructs multiple cross-section images from CT data into a computer model displaying complex bronchial branches.
PW2 does not interface directly with any CT or data collection equipment; instead PW2 imports data files previously generated by such equipment.
PW2 provides quantitative measurements and tabulates quantitative properties. PW2 focuses on what is visible to the eye and applies volumetric methods that might otherwise be too tedious to use. The software does not perform any function which cannot be accomplished by a trained user utilizing manual tracing methods; the intent of the software is to save time and automate potential errorprone manual tasks.
The software has functions for loading, analyzing, saving datasets and will generate screen displays, computations and aggregate statistics.
