More Information

Not Found

No
The summary describes standard digital X-ray imaging and image processing functionalities (acquisition, calibration, display, analysis, manipulation, archiving, transmittal) but does not mention any AI or ML techniques being used for these processes or for the primary function of rapid verification. The "Mentions AI, DNN, or ML" section explicitly states "Not Found".

No

Explanation: The device is an X-ray imaging system used for rapid verification of excised tissue during biopsy. Its purpose is diagnostic (imaging and verification), not therapeutic (treating a disease or condition).

Yes
The device is intended to provide rapid verification that the correct tissue has been excised during percutaneous biopsy, which involves examining anatomical regions to confirm the presence or absence of specific tissue, fulfilling a diagnostic function.

No

The device is described as a "cabinet digital X-ray imaging system" and mentions conforming to performance standards for "ionizing radiation emitting products" and "Cabinet X-ray systems," 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 to generate X-rays for examining anatomical regions and verifying excised tissue during biopsy. This is a radiological imaging function, not a diagnostic test performed in vitro (outside the body) on biological specimens.
  • Device Description: The device is described as a cabinet digital X-ray imaging system. This aligns with imaging equipment, not IVD devices which typically involve reagents, analyzers, or test kits for analyzing biological samples.
  • Mechanism of Action: The device uses X-rays to create images. IVD devices analyze biological samples (like blood, urine, tissue) to detect or measure substances or characteristics.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of analyzing biological samples, using reagents, or performing tests on specimens in vitro. The focus is on imaging the excised tissue.

The device is clearly intended for medical imaging to assist in a surgical procedure (biopsy verification), which falls under the category of medical devices, but not specifically In Vitro Diagnostics.
