Intended Use

Synapse 3D Tensor Analysis is medical imaging software used with Synapse 3D Base Tools to accept, display, and process DICOM compliant 2D and 3D medical images acquired from MR for the purpose of viewing of local water diffusion properties and directional dependence of the diffusion in the white matter. It is intended to be used by trained medical professionals in reading, interpreting, reporting, screening and treatment planning. Addition to the general 2D and 3D image processing and measurement tools available in Synapse 3D Base Tools, Synapse 3D Tensor Analysis provides custom workflows, UI, and reporting functions for tensor analysis with neck and head MR images. It includes display of diffusion and FA color map images, white matter tractography, dynamic review in MR, vessel and body visualization with registration of MR, CT, XA, PET and NM.

Testing involved system level functionality test, segmentation accuracy test, measurement accuracy test, interfacing test, usability test, serviceability test, labeling test, as well as the test for risk mitigation method analyzed and implemented in the risk management process. In addition, we conducted the bench performance testing using actual clinical images to help demonstrate that the proposed device achieved the expected accuracy performance. Pass/Fail criteria were based on the requirements and intended use of the product. Test results showed that all tests successfully passed. In addition, a comparative performance testing was conducted between the Synapse 3D Tensor Analysis and the predicate device, and the comparison test result supported the substantial equivalence of the devices' performance characteristics. ### Conclusion This 510(k) premarket notification submission has demonstrated Substantial Equivalence as defined and understood in the Federal Food Drug and Cosmetic Act and various guidance documents issued by the Center for Devices and Radiological Health. We conclude the subject device to be as safe and effective as the predicate devices.
