Device Description
The Horizon® Series Imagers are dry, thermal, grey scale (Gs model) and grey scale/color (Ci model) direct thermal printer/imagers. The devices produce continuous tone, diagnostic quality B/W images on transmissive film and reflective incident light viewed media. The color images produced via dye-diffusion technology are photographic medical color matched quality.
Mentions image processing
Digital images input directly or via Local Area Network is managed via communication i standards including however not limited to FTP, TCP/IP, and DICOM. Images of a variety of digital formats are managed via industry standard format conversion software and image rendering algorithms including however not limited to TIFF, GIF, PCX, BMP, PBM, PGM, PPM, XWD, JPEG, SunRaster, SGI, Targa, DICOM, DEFF, and Postscript. Interpolation and scaling of images without Lossy data compression is employed in this device to maintain data integrity. Validated digital linear and visual linear routines and verified industry/modality specific Look Up Tables (LUTs) are applied to optimize color and CRT image hardcopy display results.
Imaging is accomplished via directly-modulated discrete-element thin-layer linear thermal print head technology. The recording medium is either heat sensitive silver in the case of DV grey scale film and DV DirectView reflective record imaging, or thermal heat activated dye-diffusion of color in the case of CV DirectView and Transparency/film record imaging. The action of heat on the grey scale media produces a black dye in the medium. The action of heat on the dye-diffusion media produces a precision mixing of colors, which diffuse the medium top layer. The image formation is accomplished without wet chemistry processing common to many laser film imaging systems in use today.

3.2Scientific Concepts:
Digital images input directly or via Local Area Network is managed via communication i standards including however not limited to FTP, TCP/IP, and DICOM. Images of a variety of digital formats are managed via industry standard format conversion software and image rendering algorithms including however not limited to TIFF, GIF, PCX, BMP, PBM, PGM, PPM, XWD, JPEG, SunRaster, SGI, Targa, DICOM, DEFF, and Postscript. Interpolation and scaling of images without Lossy data compression is employed in this device to maintain data integrity. Validated digital linear and visual linear routines and verified industry/modality specific Look Up Tables (LUTs) are applied to optimize color and CRT image hardcopy display results.
Imaging is accomplished via directly-modulated discrete-element thin-layer linear thermal print head technology. The recording medium is either heat sensitive silver in the case of DV grey scale film and DV DirectView reflective record imaging, or thermal heat activated dye-diffusion of color in the case of CV DirectView and Transparency/film record imaging. The action of heat on the grey scale media produces a black dye in the medium. The action of heat on the dye-diffusion media produces a precision mixing of colors, which diffuse the medium top layer. The image formation is accomplished without wet chemistry processing common to many laser film imaging systems in use today.
3.3Physical And Performance Characteristics:
In the case of medical image hard copy devices, important performance characteristics, which affect the effectiveness and safety, relate to the fidelity of the modulation transfer function. Spatial frequency response, grey scale resolution, density response and full image field uniformity combine to affect the final image. Characteristic response of thermal print head and film response must be mapped and compensated for to achieve suitable performance.
Pixel size (79µ for the Horizon® Series Imagers) produces a pixel resolution of 12.6 pixels/mm or 320 dpi. The grey scale resolution produces a palate of 4096 levels of discernable grey, while the color palate produces 256 levels of 16.7 millions colors. The SMPTE resolution and contrast pattern and uniform density response function confirms quality suitable for the intended medical imaging use.

7 Hazard Analysis and Safety Concerns
7.1Hazard analysis on this product has been performed throughout the definition, design, and testing phases of the product development and implementation. This process has emphasized:
- Identification of potential hazards, their causes and their effects .
- . Development of methodologies to control the occurrence of hazards and to constrain their effects;
- . Determine any effect on patient safety and system effectiveness
The potential hazards associated with this software product are not different than those of other multiformat hardcopy image components. These are primarily related to the failure of computer system components, and may be variously obviated by decisions taken by the end users of the product. None of the failures are expected to materially contribute to patient death or injury.
It is our conclusion that no hardware or software component, operating in a properly configured environment, whose latent design defect would be expected to result in death or injury of the patient. Thus the "level of Concern" is "Minor".
