Intended Use
OPTIMAX, COMPACT 2, OPTIMAX 2010, ECOMAX are all Automatic X-Ray Film Processors (Regulation No. 892.1900). The devices mentioned above are intended to be used to process films exposed for medical purposes. The automatic and continuous process contains developing, fixing, washing and drying of films. This may be used in all general radiographic, diagnostic imaging procedures.
Device Description
Due to the precise roller transport system, both sheet and roller films can be processed. The automatic film registration is activated immediately when a film is fed in. The transport system starts running. The film material is developed, fixed, rinsed and dried. With the easy to operate micro-processor, the processing conditions can be adjusted to suit the various film and chemical types. The developing solutions are temperature-regulated, circulated and automatically replenished. The feed width of the OPTIMAX®, OPTIMAX® 2010 and ECOMAX™ is 35 cm, the bigger COMPACT™ 2 has 45 cm feed with. The smallest film format of all processors is 10*10 cm. The photographic processing (developing) technique employed by the Automatic X-Ray Film Processor is the same as the predicate device. The film medium is mechanically transported for immersion in two chemical baths (developer and fixer), is rinsed in water, dried, and then ejected for viewing. The processors use mechanical rollers for transportation, the solutions are temperature-regulated, circulated and automatically replenished, and same additional functions (anti-crystallization cycle, stand-by mode). All are controlled by an integrated software.
More Information

Not Found

No
The description focuses on mechanical and chemical processes for developing X-ray film, controlled by a microprocessor and integrated software for basic automation and parameter adjustment. There is no mention of AI, ML, or any capabilities that would suggest learning or adaptive algorithms for image analysis or processing beyond standard film development.

No.
The device is an automatic X-ray film processor used to process films exposed for medical purposes, not to directly treat or diagnose a medical condition.

No

This device is an X-ray film processor, which develops films that have been exposed for medical purposes. It does not perform diagnostic functions itself, but rather prepares the images for diagnostic interpretation by medical professionals.

No

The device is a physical machine (Automatic X-Ray Film Processor) that uses software to control its mechanical and chemical processes. It is not solely software.

No, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostic devices are used to examine specimens taken from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue) to provide information about a person's health.
  • Device Function: This device is an Automatic X-Ray Film Processor. Its function is to process exposed X-ray films, which are images of the inside of the body, not specimens taken from the body.
  • Intended Use: The intended use is to process films exposed for medical purposes, specifically for general radiographic and diagnostic imaging procedures. This is related to imaging, not laboratory testing of biological samples.
  • Regulation Number: The regulation number provided (892.1900) is for "Automatic X-Ray Film Processor," which falls under the category of Radiology devices, not In Vitro Diagnostic devices.

Therefore, based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD.
