The Slice Editor can replace the IMEX contouring utility as the component for contouring anatomes in all applications in which IMEX is currently utilized. ## Device Story Slice Editor is an image manipulation and contouring software utility designed for surgical and treatment planning systems. It functions as an upgraded replacement for the IMEX contouring utility. The software allows clinicians to create and modify anatomical structures within medical images. It integrates into existing workstation environments to provide anatomical data for treatment planning. By enabling precise contouring, it assists healthcare providers in defining target areas for surgical or radiological interventions, potentially improving the accuracy of treatment delivery. ## Clinical Evidence Bench testing only. No clinical data provided. ## Technological Characteristics Software-based image manipulation and contouring utility. Operates as an accessory to surgical and treatment planning workstations. Provides anatomical data for treatment planning. Compatible with existing RSA applications. ## Regulatory Identification A medical charged-particle radiation therapy system is a device that produces by acceleration high energy charged particles (e.g., electrons and protons) intended for use in radiation therapy. This generic type of device may include signal analysis and display equipment, patient and equipment supports, treatment planning computer programs, component parts, and accessories. ## Predicate Devices - IMEX software used in Radionics' XPlan-1 ([K972905](/device/K972905.md)) - StereoPlan ([K946252](/device/K946252.md)) ## Submission Summary (Full Text) > This content was OCRed from public FDA records by [Innolitics](https://innolitics.com).

The submitter of this premarket notification is: Lisa Misterka Benati Senior Regulatory Engineer Radionics Software Applications, Inc. 22 Terry Avenue Burlington, MA 01803 Tel: (781) 272 - 1233 Fax: (781) 272 - 2428 This summary was prepared on April 30, 1998. 2. The name of this device is the "Slice Editor" utility. It is an upgraded version of software intended for use in with surgical and treatment planning svstems where a graphical editing facility is used to create and modify anatomical structures. The common name is image editing software and its classification name is Stereotaxic instrument (accessory/utility). 3. The Slice Editor software is substantially equivalent to the IMEX software used in Radionics' XPlan-1 for radiology applications (K972905) and its StereoPlan used for neurology applications (K946252). 4. The Slice Editor software is totally compatible with IMEX in its applications. When installed, Slice Editor provides the same anatomical data to the workstation as previously supplied with IMEX. 5. The Slice Editor is intended to serve as an image manipulation and contouring package for use with existing and new RSA applications. There is no change to indications for use. 6. The technological characteristics are the same or similar to those found with the predicate devices where contouring sessions generate anatomical data to assist in the treatment planning process. {1}------------------------------------------------ DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH & HUMAN SERVICES · USA Food and Drug Administration 9200 Corporate Boulevard Rockville MD 20850 OCT - a 1998 Lisa Misterka Benati Senior Regulatory Engineer Radionics® Software Applications, Inc. 22 Terry Avenue Burlington, MA 01803 Re: K981597 Slice Editor Imaging Software Utility Dated: August 14, 1998 Received: August 17, 1998 Regulatory class: II 21 CFR 892.5050/Procode: 90 IYE Dear Ms. Benati: We have reviewed your Section 510(k) notification of intent to market the device referenced above and we have determined the device is substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to devices marketed in interstate commerce prior to May 28, 1976, the enactment date of the Medical Device Amendments, or to devices that have been reclassified in accordance with the povisions of the Federal Pood.
