Intended Use

The indications for use of the Fuji Computed Radiography (FCR) Velocity Image Reader with Image Plate (IP) reading is the identification, capture, digitization, and processing of diagnostic x-ray images, and associating palient and exam identification with the images.

Device Description

A Fuji Computed Radiography (FCR) system typically consists of an image reader (IR), palient ID terminal, imaging plates (IPs), IP cassettes, interface board, positioning monitor, laser printer for hard copy oulput, and optionally an image workstation, optical disk file, and network interface. This notification is for the image reader and associated imaging plates. IPs are used as twodimensional radiation detectors in place of radiographic film and intensifying screens to capture a portion of the projected x-ray patient image in space. In the image reader, the captured image data is associated electronically with patient and exam identification data and the latent image is read by laser emission by the phenomenon of photostimulable luminescence. The photostimulated fuminescence is collected, detected, sampled, and digitized. The image data is then digitally processed according to exam and user-specified parameters and may be displayed on a CRT monitor to confirm patient positioning, printed by a hard copy device (such as laser printer, or dry printer), or output to a workstation, optical disk file, or other destination. The device performs no lossy compression of image data. FCR Velocity consists of an Image Reader and an Imaging Plate (described below). The Image Reader is cassetteless because the Image Plate is built into the upright exam stand configuration of the FCR Velocity Image Reader. Imaging plates are exposed via conventional X-ray devices. The Xray irradiated IP is then moved from the exposure position to the reading position, and images are read. After reading, the IP is erased, and moved to the exposure position again. As with other FCR image readers, the FCR Velocity will feature a photostimulable phosphor imaging plate (IP) composed of europium activated barium fluorohalaid compounds in a crystal form held in an organic binder. The IP used with the subject device will have a rigid substrate, which enables it to be held in a constant plane. IPs are used as two-dimensional radiation detectors in place of radiographic film and intensitying screens to capture a portion of the projected x-ray palient image in space. In the image reader, the captured image data is associated electronically with patient and exam identification data and the latent image is read by laser emission by the phenomenon of photostimulable luminescence. The photostimulated luminescence is collected, sampled, and digitized. The image data is then digitally processed according to exam and user-specified parameters and may be displayed on a CRT monitor to confirm patient positioning, printed by a hard copy device (such as laser printer), or dry printer), or output to a workstation, optical disk file, or other destination. The device performs no lossy compression of image data.

AI/ML (Artificial Intelligence / Machine Learning)

No
The description focuses on standard digital image processing techniques and hardware components for capturing and digitizing X-ray images. There is no mention of AI, ML, or related concepts like neural networks, training data, or performance metrics typically associated with AI/ML algorithms.

Therapeutic

No
The device is described as an image reader used for capturing, digitizing, and processing diagnostic x-ray images, not for treating any medical condition.

Diagnostic

Yes

Explanation: The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" section states that the device is used for "identification, capture, digitization, and processing of diagnostic x-ray images." The term "diagnostic x-ray images" explicitly indicates its role in diagnosis.

SaMD (Software as a Medical Device)

The device description clearly outlines multiple hardware components, including an image reader, imaging plates, IP cassettes, interface board, positioning monitor, and laser printer. While it mentions digital processing of image data, it is not solely software.

IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic)

Based on the provided text, this device 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 Fuji Computed Radiography (FCR) Velocity Image Reader with Image Plate is used for capturing, digitizing, and processing diagnostic x-ray images of the patient's body. It works by detecting radiation that has passed through the patient.
No Sample Analysis: The device does not analyze biological samples taken from the patient. It interacts directly with the patient's body through the use of X-rays.

Therefore, the device falls under the category of medical imaging equipment, not in vitro diagnostics.
