No
The summary describes a standard digital radiography system and does not mention any AI or ML capabilities, image processing beyond basic manipulation, or performance studies related to AI/ML.

No
The device is used to collect and process dental x-rays for diagnostic use, not for treating a disease or condition.

Yes
The device is used to collect dental x-ray photons and convert them into electronic impulses for "diagnostic use by dentists," indicating it is involved in diagnosis.

No

The intended use describes a system that collects dental x-ray photons and converts them into electronic impulses, which strongly implies the presence of hardware (a sensor or detector) to perform this conversion. A software-only device would typically process data already in electronic form.

Based on the provided information, the Suni Digital Radiography System is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • IVD definition: In vitro diagnostics are tests performed on samples taken from the human body, such as blood, urine, or tissue, to detect diseases, conditions, or infections.
  • Device function: The Suni Digital Radiography System collects dental x-ray photons and converts them into electronic impulses for diagnostic use. This process involves imaging the internal structure of the teeth and surrounding tissues using external radiation, not analyzing biological samples taken from the body.

Therefore, the device falls under the category of a medical imaging device, not an in vitro diagnostic device.

§ 872.1800 Extraoral source x-ray system.

(a)
Identification. An extraoral source x-ray system is an AC-powered device that produces x-rays and is intended for dental radiographic examination and diagnosis of diseases of the teeth, jaw, and oral structures. The x-ray source (a tube) is located outside the mouth. This generic type of device may include patient and equipment supports and component parts.(b)
Classification. Class II.

Trade/Device Name: Suni Intraoral Imaging System Regulation Number: 21 CFR 872.1800 Regulation Name: Extraoral source x-ray system Regulatory Class: II Product Code: 90 MUH Dated: May 13, 2002 Received: May 23, 2002

Dear Mr. Bettencourt:

We have reviewed your Section 510(k) premarket notification of intent to market the device referenced above and have determined the device is substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to legally marketed predicate devices marketed in interstate commerce prior to May 28, 1976, the enactment date of the Medical Device Amendments, or to devices that have been reclassified in accordance with the provisions of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (Act) that do not require approval of a premarket approval application (PMA), You may, therefore, market the device, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act. The general controls provisions of the Act include requirements for annual registration, listing of devices, good manufacturing practice, labeling, and prohibitions against misbranding and adulteration.

If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (PMA), it may be subject to additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 898. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register.

Please be advised that FDA's issuance of a substantial equivalence determination does not mean that FDA has made a determination that your device complies with other requirements of the Act or any Federal statutes and regulations administered by other Federal agencies. You must comply with all the Act's requirements, including, but not limited to: registration and listing (21 CFR Part 807); labeling (21 CFR Part 801); good manufacturing practice requirements as set forth in the quality systems (QS) regulation (21 CFR Part 820); and if applicable, the electronic product radiation control provisions (sections 531-542 of the Act); 21 CFR 1000-1050.
