Indications for Use

The Vereos PET/CT System is a diagnostic imaging device that combines Positron Emission Tomography (PET) and Xray Computed Tomography (CT) systems. The CT subsystem images anatomical cross-sections by computer reconstruction of x-ray transmission data. The PET subsystem images the distribution of PET anatomy-specific radiopharmaceuticals in the patient. The Philips Vereos PET/CT system is used for the purpose of detecting, localizing, diagnosing, staging and follow-up for monitoring therapy response of various diseases in oncology, cardiology and neurology. The system is intended to image the whole body, heart, brain, lung, gastrointestinal, bone, lymphatic, and other major organs for a wide range of patient types, sizes, and extent of diseases. Both subsystems can also be operated as fully functional, independent diagnostic tools including application of the CT scanner for diagnosis and for use in radiation therapy planning.

Device Story

Vereos PET/CT combines PET and CT subsystems for diagnostic imaging. CT uses X-ray transmission data for anatomical cross-sections; PET uses radiopharmaceuticals for metabolic/functional imaging. System includes gantry (X-ray tube, HV power supply, detectors), patient table, operating station, and reconstruction servers. New optional 'PET Adaptive Reconstruction' (PET AR) algorithm performs iterative reconstruction to full convergence. Used in clinical settings by physicians/technicians for disease staging, diagnosis, and radiation therapy planning. Clinicians use Philips fusion viewer software to overlay anatomical CT data with metabolic PET data, aiding disease severity and extent assessment. PET AR provides lower noise and improved low-contrast detectability compared to standard OSEM. Visual identifiers distinguish PET AR images from standard results.

Clinical Evidence

Bench testing only. No clinical studies were performed. Evidence includes design verification, image quality verification, and risk analysis. Performance of the PET AR algorithm was evaluated via simulated use testing and review of sample clinical images by certified board radiologists, who confirmed good image quality.

Technological Characteristics

Integrated PET/CT system. PET subsystem uses radiopharmaceutical detection; CT uses X-ray transmission. Software includes optional AI-powered PET Adaptive Reconstruction (AR) algorithm for iterative image reconstruction. Connectivity via reconstruction servers and operating station. Complies with IEC 60601-1, IEC 60601-1-2, IEC 60601-1-3, IEC 60601-2-44, IEC 62304, and ISO 10993-1.

Indications for Use

Indicated for detecting, localizing, diagnosing, staging, and monitoring therapy response in oncology, cardiology, and neurology patients of all ages and sizes. Used for whole-body, heart, brain, lung, gastrointestinal, bone, and lymphatic imaging.

Computerized Tomography (CT) is a medical imaging technique that uses X-rays to obtain cross sectional images of the head or body. The quality of the images depends on the level and amount of X-ray energy delivered to the tissue. CT imaging displays both high-density tissue, such as bone, and soft tissue. When interpreted by a trained physician, CT images provide useful diagnostic information. Positron Emission Tomography (PET) uses radiopharmaceuticals to obtain images by measuring the internal distribution of radioactivity within organs of the body. PET technology enables the practitioner to reconstruct high-resolution, three-dimensional imaqes of biochemical and metabolic processes of organs within the body. > The proposed Vereos PET/CT system utilizes the CT technology to obtain anatomic images of the human body and PET technology to obtain functional images of the human body. The clinical value of both technologies increases with the capability to fuse the CT and PET images using Philips fusion viewer Image Fusion software to create a composite image for therapeutic planning. The system also provides tools for quantifying results from the CT and PET images and provides the means for a simplified review of the CT, PET, and fused images. The integration of the anatomical data from CT with the metabolic data from PET gives clinicians the visual information necessary to define the severity, as well as the extent, of the disease. > The system is comprised of the following system components/subsystems: positron emission tomography (PET); X-ray computed tomography (CT); a patient table; Operating station; Reconstruction Servers. On the gantry, the main active components are the x-ray high voltage (HV) power supply, the x-ray tube, and the detection system. These components of the proposed Vereos PET/CT are identical to the currently marketed and predicate device, Vereos PET/CT (K210880) with respect to technological specifications. > The proposed Vereos PET/CT System includes a modification to the currently marketed and predicate device, Vereos PET/CT (K210880). The modification is limited to the addition of an optional Adaptive reconstruction algorithm ("PET AR") to be used as an additional reconstruction method for offline reconstructions. The interface of the PET AR with the Vereos system is additional protocols available to the user in the PET recon tool. In addition, a Software patch was released which limits the use of the PET AR reconstruction protocols for the scan type it's compatible with and enables identifying the PET AR reconstructed images with visual identifier to differentiate them from regular PET results. {5}------------------------------------------------ | PHILIPS<br>BG Diagnostic<br>Imaging<br>CT/AMI | SECTION 5 510(K) SUMMARY | HA300-006-05 Revision: 01 Status: Approved Page: 3 of 5 | |--------------------------------------------------|--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------| | Indications for Use /<br>Intended Use: | Vereos PET/CT system is a diagnostic imaging device that combines Positron Emission Tomography (PET) and X-ray Computed Tomography (CT) systems.
