Indications for Use

The MFI–Cardiac application is intended to provide processing of the biodistribution of radionuclides in the body using tomographic images. The application models measurements of tracer uptake over time to aid in the processing of myocardial perfusion emission tomographic images. Co-registration or fusion of volumetric data is provided as a quality control. The processed output images are reviewed on other devices by qualified medical professionals trained in the use of medical imaging devices.

Device Story

MFI-Cardiac is a software medical device for processing rest and stress myocardial perfusion PET images. It accepts DICOM-formatted images acquired via single-scan (two tracer administrations) or back-to-back scans. The device performs quality assurance tests, then applies kinetic modeling to correct for residual activity from the first tracer administration (rest) in the second scan (stress). It outputs separated, corrected DICOM images for review on external workstations by qualified medical professionals. By enabling rapid acquisition, the device reduces scan time and patient burden. It is used in clinical settings where nuclear cardiology imaging is performed.

Clinical Evidence

No clinical data. Evidence consists of bench testing: (1) simulation studies across the full range of clinical rest/stress myocardial blood flows; (2) performance evaluation using patient datasets with synthesized rest+stress images to verify output correction accuracy; and (3) evaluation of rest-stress image co-registration alignment. Software verification and validation were performed per FDA guidance for moderate level of concern software. Human factors validation testing confirmed the device is safe and effective for intended users and environments.

Technological Characteristics

Software-only medical device. Operates on DICOM image data. Implements kinetic modeling algorithms for tracer uptake and image co-registration/fusion. Designed for integration into existing clinical imaging workflows via digital image transfer. Software level of concern: moderate.

Indications for Use

Indicated for processing rest and stress myocardial perfusion PET images acquired with approved radiotracers via single-scan or fast back-to-back scans. Intended for use by qualified medical professionals to aid in image processing and quality control via co-registration/fusion of volumetric data.

Device Description MFI-Cardiac is a software medical device that facilitates the rapid acquisition and processing of rest and stress myocardial perfusion images (MPI) with positron emission tomography (PET) and approved radiotracers. The device processes rest+stress cardiac PET images that have been rapidly acquired using either a single scan with two administrations of the tracer (one at rest, the other at stress) or separate "back-to-back" rest and stress scans. The rapidly acquired rest and stress cardiac PET images are provided to MFI—Cardiac via digital image transfer in DICOM format. {4}------------------------------------------------ In use, the device first performs a series of quality assurance tests to ensure data integrity and validity. The images are then processed to correct for residual activity from the 1st tracer administration (administered at rest) that affects the image obtained after the 2nd tracer injection (administered at stress). The device then outputs separated and corrected DICOM images at rest and stress; these images are offloaded to other devices for display and review by qualified healthcare professionals. # 3. Intended Use The MFI–Cardiac application is intended to provide processing of the biodistribution of radionuclides in the body using tomographic images. The application models measurements of tracer uptake over time to aid in the processing of myocardial perfusion emission tomographic images. Co-registration or fusion of volumetric data is provided as a quality control. The processed output images are reviewed on other devices by qualified medical professionals trained in the use of medical imaging devices. The intended use of the new device is the same, but not identical to that of the predicate device (Corridor 4DM v2010); however, the differences do not alter the intended therapeutic use of the device nor do they affect the safety and effectiveness of the subject device relative to the predicate. Both the subject and predicate devices are intended to provide processing of the biodistribution of radionuclides in the body using tomographic images and both are used for rest-stress myocardial perfusion imaging in nuclear cardiology. | Feature | Subject Device<br>(MFI-Cardiac) | Predicate Device<br>(Corridor4DM v2010) | |---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|---------------------------------|-----------------------------------------| | Processes rest-stress myocardial<br>perfusion images | Yes | Yes | | DICOM image transfer capabilities | Yes | Yes | | Functionality for processing images of two<br>radiotracer administrations during a single<br>scan | Yes | No | | Processing of rest and stress myocardial<br>perfusion images in preparation for review | Yes | Yes | | Kinetic modeling of tracer uptake over<br>time | Yes | Yes | | Quantification of myocardial blood flows | No | Yes | | Co-registration of volumetric cardiac<br>images | Yes | Yes | #### 4. Technological Comparison with Predicate Device The chart below compares the subject device MFI-Cardiac to the predicate device Corridor4DM v2010. Differences between the new and predicate devices do not raise different questions of safety and effectiveness. {5}------------------------------------------------ # 5. Performance Data The performance data provided in this submission in support of the substantial equivalence determination are described in the subsections below: ## Software Verification and Validation Software verification and validation testing were conducted and documentation was provided as recommended by FDA's Guidance for Industry and FDA Staff, "Guidance for the Content of Premarket Submissions for Software Contained in Medical Devices." The software for this device is considered to pose a "moderate" level of concern, since a failure or latent flaw in the software could directly result in minor injury to the patient. ## Performance Evaluations Three performance evaluation studies were completed with all acceptance criteria met: (1) Simulation studies to evaluate device performance across the full range of rest and stress myocardial blood flows that are anticipated to be encountered clinically; (2) Performance evaluation using patient dataset with synthesized rest+stress images to evaluate the performance of MFI-Cardiac for producing output (corrected) rest and stress images that are equivalent to rest and stress images obtained from separate scans: and (3) Evaluation of rest-stress image co-reqistrations performed by MFI-Cardiac for ensuring that the estimate for residual rest tracer activity is aligned with the stressphase images before the correction is applied. This evaluation was also performed using patient datasets with synthesized rest+stress images. # Human Factors / Usability Study Human factors engineering for MFI-Cardiac included preliminary human factors analyses, formative evaluations, implementation of design changes that mitigate or eliminate use-related hazards, and human factors validation testing. The results of validation testing indicate that MFI-Cardiac is safe and effective for the intended users, uses and use environments. Residual risks that remain would not be further reduced by modifications of user interface design or labeling (User Manual and Supporting Documents), and are outweighed by the benefits that may be derived from the device's use. #### Conclusion / Summary of Substantial Equivalence 6. The results of the non-clinical, human factors engineering, and simulated use tests and software verification and validation studies demonstrate the safety and effectiveness of the subject device and equivalence with the predicate device. Based on the information and data provided and analyzed in this 510(k) premarket notification, MultiFunctional Imaging, LLC concludes that MFI-Cardiac is substantially equivalent to the predicate device and is safe and effective for its intended use.
