LiverMultiScan

LiverMultiScan (LMSv3) is a standalone software device. The purpose of the LiverMultiScan (LMSv3) device is to assist the trained operator with the evaluation of information from Magnetic Resonance (MR) images from a single time-point (patient visit). The LiverMultiScan (LMSv3) is a post-processing software device, a trained operator uses tools such as automatic liver segmentation and region of interest placement upon previously acquired MR images, from which a summary report is generated. The summary report is then sent to an interpreting clinician. The interpreting clinician needs to take into consideration the device’s limitations and accuracy during clinical interpretation. LiverMultiScan (LMSv3) is not intended to replace the established procedures for the assessment of a patients liver health by an interpreting clinician, providing many opportunities for competent human intervention in the interpretation of images and information displayed. The device is intended to be used by a trained operator to generate metrics for subsequent interpretation by a clinician. The metrics are intended to be used as an additional diagnostic input to provide information to clinicians as part of a wider diagnostic process. It is expected that in the normal course of liver disease diagnosis, patients will present with clinical symptoms or risk factors which may indicate liver disease. Liver function tests, blood tests, ultrasound scanning as well as liver biopsy are all expected to be used at the discretion of a qualified clinician in addition to information obtained from the use of LiverMultiScan (LMSv3) metrics. The purpose of a LiverMultiScan (LMSv3) metrics is to provide imaging information to assist in characterizing tissue in the liver, which are additional to existing methods for obtaining information relating to the liver. LiverMultiScan (LMSv3) metrics are not intended to replace any existing diagnostic source of information, but can be used to identify patients who
