The summary describes a standard digital x-ray system with a CCD detector and image acquisition capabilities, with no mention of AI or ML technologies.
No
The device is described as an "x-ray system" intended for "producing diagnostic x-ray radiographic images," indicating its use for diagnosis rather than therapy.
Yes
The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" section explicitly states that the device is "intended for producing diagnostic x-ray radiographic images".
No
The device description explicitly states it is a "digital x-ray system" and uses a "high resolution CCD detector," which are hardware components.
No, 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. They are used to examine these samples outside of the body.
- PaX-P&P Function: The PaX-P&P is a digital x-ray system. It uses radiation to create images of internal structures of the body (skull, dentition, oral structures). This is an in vivo (within the living body) imaging technique, not an in vitro test.
- Intended Use: The intended use clearly states it's for "producing diagnostic x-ray radiographic images of skull, dentition, and oral structures." This is a diagnostic imaging purpose, not an in vitro diagnostic test.
The description and intended use clearly indicate that this device is a medical imaging system, not an IVD.

Intended Use / Indications for Use
The Vatech system is intended as an extraoral digital xray system that allows for panoramic tomographic imaging and teleradiography. It essentially has the same use as the predicate devices for X-ray computed tomography of the head and neck for dental, oral, and related medical use imaging.
PaX-P&P is a digital x-ray system that uses a high resolution CCD detector for real time digital image acquisition. The system allows lower radiation dose, simple user interface, and produces high quality images. It is intended for producing diagnostic x-ray radiographic images of skull, dentition, and oral structures.

DEVICE NAME:
Name: Digital X-Ray Imaging System Proprietary Model: PaX-P&P Classification: System, Xray Extraoral Source Digital (code MUH) Class 2 - 872.1800
PREDICATE DEVICES:
Sinora Dental Systems Digital Xray System Model Orthophos 3/3 Ceph/3DS - K990528 Intrumentarium Corp. Digital Xray System Model Orthoceph OC100D - K001439
DESCRIPTION:
Vatech Model PaX-P&P is a digital panoramic dental imaging system. It uses high resolution CCD detector for real time digital image acquisition. It has lower radiation dose results, simple user interface and high quality producing capability.
INTENDED USE:
The Vatech system is intended as an extraoral digital xray system that allows for panoramic tomographic imaging and teleradiography. It essentially has the same use as the predicate devices for X-ray computed tomography of the head and neck for dental, oral, and related medical use imaging.
1
COMPARISON TO PREDICATE DEVICES:
The Vatech system has the same use and capability as both of the predicate devices named. The Vatech and Instrumentarium high voltage tubes are from the same Toshiba tube family and have the same fundamental electronic design. The CCD, radiographic, extraoral sensing and imaging methods are all similar characteristics used by these systems. They all have rotating image capability and similar chin rest positioning.
Small differences in methodology, technique, and cosmetic appearance offer no new concerns regarding safety and effectiveness. The Vatech system is technologically equivalent in concept, function and performance to the predicate devices.
CONCLUSION:
The Vatech model PaX-P&P has been developed and validated according to all applicable standards. Evaluations have proven that the system is safe and effective for the intended use. Risk analysis and safety certifications reveal that there are no new safety issues associated with this system as compared with the predicate devices.
