Intended Use
The Saturn 9000 system generates digital X-ray images that can be used for general X-ray system not for Mammography. The Saturn 9000 system can interface to traditional X-ray generator and get digital X-ray image. The Saturn 9000 is intended to be used in same clinical application as traditional film-screen based general radiography system.
Device Description
The Saturn 9000 Is equipped with a digital detector, X-ray generator interface, and image acquisition workstation. The digital detector is a-Se deposited plat panel detector. The input X-ray photons are absorbed in a-Se layer that creates an electrical charge which is representation of the X-ray input. The charge is read-out by a matrix scan of the array that converts the charges into a modulated electrical signal. X-ray exposure is controlled by switch box, which also controls the acquisition timing of the detector. Saturn 9000 includes acquisition workstation ("AWS") monitor, keyboard and mouse, computer, electronics, and accessory storage. The resultant output signal can be transmitted to remote viewing sites. and/or it can be stored electronically for later viewing. The AWS is used for image acquisition, processing, and display. The AWS can also be used for database management and can send images to archive, review or filming,

No
The document describes a standard digital X-ray system with image acquisition, processing, and display capabilities. There is no mention of AI, ML, or any related concepts in the intended use, device description, or performance studies. The focus is on the digital detector technology and image processing, which are standard features of such devices.

No.
The device is used to generate digital X-ray images for diagnostic purposes, not for treating or rehabilitating a condition.

No

The device is an imaging system that generates X-ray images. While these images are used by medical professionals for diagnostic purposes, the device itself is a tool for image acquisition and processing, not for making a diagnosis. Its function is to produce the visual data.

No

The device description explicitly lists hardware components such as a digital detector, X-ray generator interface, acquisition workstation (monitor, keyboard, mouse, computer, electronics), and a switch box. This indicates it is a system with significant hardware components, not solely software.

Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostics are medical devices used to perform tests on samples taken from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue) to provide information about a person's health.
  • Device Function: The Saturn 9000 system is an X-ray imaging system. It generates digital images of the internal structures of the body using X-rays. It does not perform tests on biological samples.
  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly states it's for "general X-ray system not for Mammography" and is used in the "same clinical application as traditional film-screen based general radiography system." This is consistent with diagnostic imaging, not in vitro testing.
  • Device Description: The description details the components of an X-ray imaging system (digital detector, X-ray generator interface, image acquisition workstation) and how it captures and processes X-ray images. There is no mention of handling or analyzing biological samples.

Therefore, the Saturn 9000 system falls under the category of medical imaging devices, not In Vitro Diagnostics.
