Intended Use
The NewTom VG Computed Tomography X-ray System is a dedicated X-ray imaging device that acquires a 360-degree rotational X-ray sequence of images for use as diagnostic support in radiology of the dento-maxillo-facial complex and in the field of maxillofacial surgery. The NewTom VG accomplishes this task by reconstructing a three-dimensional matrix of the examined volume, producing two-dimensional views of this volume and displaying both two-dimensional images and three-dimensional renderings.
Device Description
The NewTom VG Computed Tomography X-Ray System (NewTom VG) is a dedicated X-ray imaging device that acquires a 360-degree rotational X-ray sequence of images. It then reconstructs a three-dimensional matrix of the examined volume and produces two-dimensional views of such volume, displaying both two- and three-dimensional images. The NewTom VG can measure distances and thickness on two-dimensional images. Such images can be printed or exported on magnetic and optical media. The NewTom VG hardware, including a scanner unit (comprised of an X-ray source, flat panel detector and a motorized arm) and a control box. facilitates the acquisition of a full X-ray sequence by the device software. The NewTom VG software runs on an x86 architecture based workstation. The NewTom VG reconstructs a three-dimensional model of x-ray images similar to the threedimensional model obtained using the parent NewTom 3G Computed Tomography X-Ray System (NewTom 3G).

No
The summary describes standard image reconstruction techniques for CT imaging and does not mention AI or ML.

No
The device is used for diagnostic imaging (acquiring X-ray images and reconstructing 3D models) to support diagnosis in radiology and maxillofacial surgery, rather than for treating or mitigating a disease or condition.

Yes.
The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" section explicitly states that the device is "for use as diagnostic support in radiology."

No

The device description explicitly states that the NewTom VG includes hardware components such as a scanner unit (X-ray source, flat panel detector, motorized arm) and a control box, in addition to the software.

Based on the provided information, the NewTom VG Computed Tomography X-ray System is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic) device.

Here's why:

  • IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostic devices are used to examine specimens (like blood, urine, or tissue) taken from the human body to provide information about a person's health. This testing is performed outside of the body (in vitro).
  • NewTom VG Function: The NewTom VG is an X-ray imaging device. It acquires images of the dento-maxillo-facial complex within the patient's body using X-rays. It does not analyze biological specimens.

The device's function is clearly described as an imaging system for diagnostic support in radiology and maxillofacial surgery, which falls under the category of medical imaging devices, not IVDs.

న్. INTENDED USE

The NewTom VG is a dedicated X-ray imaging device that acquires a 360-degree rotational X-ray sequence of images for use as diagnostic support in radiology of the dento-maxillo-facial complex and in the field of maxillofacial surgery. The NewTom VG accomplishes this task by reconstructing a three-dimensional matrix of the examined volume, producing two-dimensional views of this volume and displaying both two dimensional images and three-dimensional renderings.

6. TECHNOLOGICAL CHARACTERISTICS AND SUBSTANTIAL EQUIVALENCE

The technological characteristics of the NewTom Computed Tomography X-ray System and the parent NewTom 3G Computed Tomography X-ray Systems are substantially equivalent in that they are devices designed to provide images for use as diagnostic support in radiology of the dento-maxillo-facial complex and in the field of maxillofacial surgery. The proposed NewTom VG and the parent NewTom 3G are computer controlled dedicated x-ray imaging devices that construct three-dimensional models from images taken during a rotational x-ray sequence. It is optimized for bone morphology analysis of the maxillofacial region.

The proposed NewTom VG and the NewTom 3G both use an X-ray imaging system that acquires a 360 degrees rotational x-ray sequence and reconstructs a three-dimensional matrix of the examined volume and produces two-dimensional views of this volume, displaying both two- and three-dimensional images.

The proposed NewTom VG hardware, including a control box and framework comprised of an x-ray source, detector and either a fixed or rotating arm whereas the NewTom 3G system consists of the same components with only a fixed arm. The

2

proposed NewTom VG allows imaging to be performed in both a sitting and standing position and the parent NewTom 3G system only allows imaging to be performed in a supine position. The above differences do not impact safety or effectiveness since both the parent NewTom 3G and the proposed NewTom VG system are identical in that they are computer controlled dedicated x-ray imaging devices that constructs threedimensional models from images taken during a rotational x-ray sequence. The technological characteristics for both the proposed NewTom VG and the parent NewTom 3G devices provide the user with a method of constructing a threedimensional models from images taken during a rotational x-ray sequence. Therefore, the addition of hardware to improve image quality and flexibility of design represent minor technological differences that do not affect the overall safety or effectiveness of the proposed NewTom VG Computed Tomography X-ray System.

7. Performance Testing

Electrical safety, EMC/EMI testing, and verification and validation testing were performed to support the hardware and software modifications. The NewTom VG Computed Tomography X-Ray System met all requirements, and functioned as intended and is therefore safe and effective for its intended use.

Dear Ms. McNamra-Cullinane:

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.
