The description focuses on standard CT technology, data acquisition, and image reconstruction using high-speed electronics, with no mention of AI or ML algorithms for image processing, analysis, or other functions.
No.
The 'Intended Use' states that the device is used to produce cross-sectional images of the body, which is a diagnostic function, not a therapeutic one. It describes the process of image acquisition, display, processing, and storage, all related to diagnosis.
Yes.
The device's intended use is to produce cross-sectional images of the body using x-ray transmission data, which are then displayed, processed, and stored. This process generates images that can be used by healthcare professionals to identify and evaluate medical conditions, which is the definition of a diagnostic device.
No
The device description explicitly lists hardware components such as a gantry, computer operator's console, patient table, high frequency x-ray generator, x-ray tube, x-ray detector, and a computer workstation. This indicates it is a hardware-based medical device with integrated software, not a software-only device.
Based on the provided information, the Pronto device is not an In Vitro Diagnostic (IVD).
Here's why:
- IVDs are used to examine specimens derived from the human body. The Pronto device uses x-ray transmission data to create images of the body itself, not to analyze biological samples like blood, urine, or tissue.
- The intended use describes imaging the body. The description clearly states the purpose is to "produce cross-sectional images of the body" using x-ray data.
- The device description details a CT system. Computed tomography (CT) is an imaging modality that visualizes internal structures of the body.
Therefore, the Pronto device falls under the category of medical imaging devices, not In Vitro Diagnostics.
N/A
Intended Use / Indications for Use
The intended use of the Pronto is to produce cross-sectional images of the body by using highspeed electronics to mathematically reconstruct axial slices using data produced by x-ray transmission data from the same axial plane taken at different angles. The system can then display, process and store the reconstructed slices.

Device Description
The Pronto is a computed tomography system consisting of a gantry, computer operator's console, patient table, high frequency x-ray generator and accessories. Computed tomography (CT) is a radiographic method that uses a computer to reconstruct an image of a cross sectional plane of an object. The Pronto system utilizes "Third Generation" geometry with the x-ray tube and x-ray detector mounted on a rotating frame. A fan beam of x-rays generated by an x-ray tube mounted in the gantry passes through the patient and is detected by a solid state x-ray detector. The rotating frame containing the x-ray tube and x-ray detector rotate concentrically about the patient utilizing slip ring technology. As the x-ray tube and detector move around the patient, data is collected at multiple angles. A cross-sectional image is then reconstructed using the collected data by specialized high speed electronics. The reconstructed images can then be viewed on the computer workstation, printed on a printer or transferred to an archive or remote viewing station. The high voltage required for the xray tube is generated on the rotating frame with a high frequency transformer. The x-ray detector is similar in design to the predicate device. The computer workstation is PC based utilizing the latest Intel Pentium technology. The operating system is Windows NT.

3.1. Function
The Pronto is a computed tomography system consisting of a gantry, computer operator's console, patient table, high frequency x-ray generator and accessories. Computed tomography (CT) is a radiographic method that uses a computer to reconstruct an image of a cross sectional plane of an object. The Pronto system utilizes "Third Generation" geometry with the x-ray tube and x-ray detector mounted on a rotating frame.

about the patient utilizing slip ring technology. As the x-ray tube and detector move around the patient, data is collected at multiple angles. A cross-sectional image is then reconstructed using the collected data by specialized high speed electronics. The reconstructed images can then be viewed on the computer workstation, printed on a printer or transferred to an archive or remote viewing station. The high voltage required for the xray tube is generated on the rotating frame with a high frequency transformer. The x-ray detector is similar in design to the predicate device. The computer workstation is PC based utilizing the latest Intel Pentium technology. The operating system is Windows NT.
Device Intended Use: 4.
- The intended use of the Pronto is to produce cross-sectional images of the 4.1. body by using high-speed electronics to mathematically reconstruct axial slices using data produced by x-ray transmission data from the same axial plane taken at different angles. The system can then display, process and store the reconstructed slices.
Device Technological Characteristics: 5.
- The characteristics of the Pronto Computed Tomography System compare 5.1. substantially with the Philips Medical Systems Secura predicate device, in both materials used, technology applied, and functional methodology. Differences of note do not affect safety and effectiveness of the device, intended use, or application methods. The device operates in a manner substantially equivalent to other cleared devices in this category, and performs as well as the predicate Secura.
5.2. Safety
The Pronto is a non-invasive device. It has been designed to comply with applicable safety standards and the applicable sections of 21CFR. An initial product report defined by 21CFR 1002.10 will be submitted prior to the first Pronto shipment.
The results of the hazard analysis indicate that the device is of minor level of concern as defined in the "Guidance for the Content of Premarket Submissions for Software Contained in Medical Devices".
