Read the full statement (184 words)
Hepatica (Hepatica v1) is a post-processing medical device software that presents quantified metrics which may
contribute to the assessment of a patient’s liver health.
Hepatica (Hepatica v1) uses image visualisation and analysis tools to process DICOM 3.0 compliant magnetic resonance
image datasets to produce semi-automatic segmented 3D models of the liver based on the work of Couinaud and the
Brisbane 2000 terminology. For each identified Couinaud segment, volumetric data is determined and reported.
Hepatica (Hepatica v1) may also report iron corrected-T1 (cT1) and PDFF calculated using the IDEAL method from
multi-slice acquisitions, on a per segment basis, over the whole liver. Both metrics present numerical values of different
fundamental liver tissue characteristics that can be used as measures of liver tissue health.
Hepatica (Hepatica v1) provides trained clinicians with additional information to evaluate the volume and health of a
patient’s liver on a segmental basis. It is not intended to replace the established procedures for the assessment of a
patient’s liver health. However, information gathered through existing diagnostic tests, clinical evaluation of the patient,
as well Hepatica (Hepatica v1), may support surgical decision making.
