No
The summary describes a digital radiography system that captures and transfers images, but there is no mention of AI or ML being used for image analysis or processing beyond basic digital handling. The "analysis" mentioned likely refers to human interpretation of the digital image.
No
The device is described as capturing x-ray images for analysis, archiving, and transmission, and does not mention any therapeutic function or direct treatment of a disease or condition.
No
This device captures x-ray images of the mouth but does not interpret or diagnose conditions from those images. Its function is to produce digital images for analysis by a human or other software, rather than to provide a diagnosis itself.
No
The device description explicitly mentions a "digital sensor" and a "USB controller" as components of the system, indicating the presence of hardware.
Based on the provided information, the Digirex™ Digital Dental 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.
- Digirex™ Function: The Digirex™ system captures images of a patient's mouth using x-rays from an external source. It does not analyze samples taken from the body. It is an imaging device used for diagnostic purposes, but it operates in vivo (within the living body) rather than in vitro (in glass/outside the body).
The description clearly indicates it's a dental radiography system, which is a type of medical imaging equipment.

Intended Use / Indications for Use
The Digirex™ Digital Dental Radiography System replaces the traditional film approach to x-ray imaging. A digital sensor rather than film is used to capture x-rays from an external source and produce digital images of a patient's mouth. The digital sensor and the USB controller allow the images to be transferred to a computer for analysis, archiving and electronic transmission.

§ 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.

Technological Characteristics and Substantial Equivalence:
The Digirex™ Digital Dental Radiography System has a number of substantially equivalent (SE) predicate devices. These predicate devices use the same technological methods to perform the task of digital image capture from an external x-ray source. A digital sensor and USB controller are the main components of the predicate devices.
Digital dental radiography eliminates the need for conventional film to produce images from an external x-ray source. The benefits of this are two-fold. First, images appear instantaneously. There is no longer a need for a dark room and chemicals to process the undeveloped x-ray film. Second, and more importantly, is that a much smaller dose of x-ray radiation is required to produce an image, benefiting the patient.

The seal features an abstract eagle design, with the words "DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH & HUMAN SERVICES (USA)" arranged in a circular pattern around the eagle. The eagle is depicted with stylized lines, giving it a modern and symbolic appearance. The overall design is simple, clean, and conveys a sense of authority and professionalism.

Dear Mr. Huang:
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 (Premarket Approval), it may be subject to such 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.
Image /page/2/Picture/10 description: The image shows a logo with the text "FDA Centennial 1906-2006" in a circular design. Below the logo, the text "Protecting and Promoting Public Health" is displayed in an elegant, cursive font. The logo commemorates the centennial of the FDA, highlighting its role in protecting and promoting public health.

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.
This letter will allow you to begin marketing your device as described in your Section 510(k) premarket notification. The FDA finding of substantial equivalence of your device to a legally marketed predicate device results in a classification for your device and thus, permits your device to proceed to the market.
If you desire specific advice for your device on our labeling regulation (21 CFR Part 801), please contact the Office of Compliance at one of the following numbers, based on the regulation number at the top of this letter:
| 21 CFR 876.xxxx | (Gastroenterology/Renal/Urology) | 240-276-0115 |
