No
The summary describes standard digital image processing and enhancement techniques, not AI/ML. There is no mention of AI, ML, or related concepts like training or test sets for algorithmic development.
No
The device is described as generating and processing radiographic images for diagnostic purposes, not for treating a condition or disease.
Yes
The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" section explicitly states that the device is "intended to replace radiographic film/screen systems in all general-purpose diagnostic procedures." This clearly indicates its role in diagnosis.
No
The device description explicitly states the system consists of a CR Reader, a QC Workstation with software, cassettes, and image plates, indicating it includes hardware components beyond just software.
Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use is "generating radiographic images of human anatomy" and replacing "radiographic film/screen systems in all general-purpose diagnostic procedures." This clearly describes an imaging device used for diagnostic purposes on the human body, not for testing samples in vitro (outside the body).
- Device Description: The description details a Computed Radiography (CR) system that reads image plates exposed by X-rays. This is consistent with medical imaging equipment, not IVD equipment which typically involves analyzing biological samples like blood, urine, or tissue.
- Input Imaging Modality: The input is X-ray, which is a medical imaging modality, not a method used in IVD testing.
IVD devices are used to examine specimens derived from the human body to provide information for diagnostic, monitoring, or compatibility purposes. This device does not perform such analysis on biological samples.

Device Description
The Alara CRystalView® R200 is a desktop Computed Radiography (CR) system designed to generate digital x-ray images by reading photostimulable phosphor image plates exposed using standard X-ray systems and techniques. The system consists of a CR Reader, a OC Workstation with software, cassettes, and image plates. Image data is sent via a dedicated connection from the Reader to the CRystalView R200 QC Workstation, where it is processed and displayed for review. The system outputs images and patient information to a PACS using the standard DICOM 3.0 protocol. The fully configured CRystalView R200 System includes acquisition console software and post-processing image enhancement software. A reseller may alternatively provide these two software components or appropriately cleared equivalents, as well as the QC Workstation hardware. The modification reported in this submission replaces the integrated third-party image enhancement software with image enhancement software developed by Alara.

Summary of Performance Studies (study type, sample size, AUC, MRMC, standalone performance, key results)
Alara has performed laboratory and clinical studies to demonstrate that the modified CRystalView R200 performance characteristics and diagnostic capabilities are equivalent to the predicate. The results of these studies show that the modified CRystal View R200 performance characteristics are comparable with those of the predicate device. Clinically, no statistically significant difference was found in image quality ratings from CRystalView images processed with the predicate third-party image enhancement software and with Alara image enhancement software when images were judged by a radiologist.

Product Description:
The Alara CRystalView® R200 is a desktop Computed Radiography (CR) system designed to generate digital x-ray images by reading photostimulable phosphor image plates exposed using standard X-ray systems and techniques. The system consists of a CR Reader, a OC Workstation with software, cassettes, and image plates.

Indications for Use:
CRystalView R200 is indicated for use in generating radiographic images of human anatomy. It is intended to replace radiographic film/screen systems in all general-purpose diagnostic procedures.

Rationale for Substantial Equivalence:
CRystalView R200 with the Alara image enhancement software has the same indication for use as the unmodified predicate device. The Alara image enhancement software shares the same technological characteristics as the previously integrated third-party image enhancement software. However, the descriptive characteristics are not sufficiently precise to assure substantial equivalence. Therefore, Alara has carried out verification and image quality performance testing, including a confirmatory clinical concurrence study. The results of this testing demonstrate that the modified CRystal View with integrated Alara image enhancement software is substantially equivalent to the predicate CRystalView with integrated third-party image enhancement software.
Safety and Effectiveness Information:
CRystalView R200 is a Class II medical device and a Class I laser product. CRystalView R200 complies with applicable FDA and international standards pertaining to electrical, mechanical, EMC, and laser safety of medical and/or laser devices.
Alara has performed laboratory and clinical studies to demonstrate that the modified CRystalView R200 performance characteristics and diagnostic capabilities are equivalent to the predicate. The results of these studies show that the modified CRystal View R200 performance characteristics are comparable with those of the predicate device. Clinically, no statistically significant difference was found in image quality ratings from CRystalView images processed with the predicate third-party image enhancement software and with Alara image enhancement software when images were judged by a radiologist.
Conclusion:
CRystal View performance tests and clinical studies have demonstrated that the modified 'CRystalView R200 incorporating Alara image enhancement software is substantially equivalent to the predicate device.

Dear Ms. King:
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 is a black and white circular logo. The logo contains the text "1906-2006" at the top and the word "Centennial" in a stylized font in the middle. The letters "FDA" are prominently displayed in the center of the logo. Three stars are located at the bottom of the logo.

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.xxx | (Gastroenterology/Renal/Urology) | 240-276-0115 |
