What FDA cleared it for
The Indications for Use statement, verbatim, from the decision document.
vascuCAP is a medical image analysis system that allows the processing, review, analysis, communication and media interchange of multi-dimensional digital images acquired with contrast from CT imaging devices. vascuCAP is intended to assist trained physicians in the stratification of patients identified to have atherosclerosis. The software post processes images obtained using a multidetector CT. The package provides tools for the measurement and visualization (color coded maps) of arterial vessels. Clinicians can select any artery to view the following anatomical references: the highlighted vessel in 3D, two rotatable curved MPR vessel views displayed at angles orthogonal to each other, and cross sections of the vessel. Cross-sectional measurements can be obtained using standard vascuCAP software measuring tools. Clinicians can semi-automatically determine contrasted lumen boundaries, stenosis measurements, and maximum and minimum lumen diameters. In addition, clinicians can edit lumen boundaries and examine Hounsfield unit or signal intensity statistics. Clinicians can also manually measure vessel length along the centerline in standard curved MPR views. The measurements provided by vascuCAP are not intended to provide a diagnosis or clinical recommendations. vascuCAP is intended as a tool to complement standard of care.
