Intended Use
Edlen Imaging's Gemini DUSB sensor is a USB-driven digital X-ray sensor that acquires dental intra-oral X-ray images. The sensor will be operated by trained dental and related healthcare professionals to acquire dental intra-oral radiographs. The Gemini sensor can be used either in combination with special positioning devices, to facilitate alignment with the x-ray beam, or it may also be positioned manually.
Device Description
The Gemini sensor is an indirect light converting digital X-ray detector. Incident X-rays are converted to visible light by a scintillating device, (material) such as Csl (Cesium lodide), the light is coupled optically to a light detection imager which is based on CMOS technology. The design of the sensor allows for automatic detection of incident X-rays to generate a digital data which when coupled with a software program will display images used for dental intra-oral applications. The Gemini Digital x-ray sensor supports USB 2.0 Direct connectivity to personal computers and or laptops, hence the name Gemini DUSB. The Gemini sensors employ built-in dedicated electronics and sensor software driver, to allow connectivity to a variety of software packages. The Gemini sensors are coupled with the currently marketed software, Apteryx XrayVision, K983111.
More Information

No
The summary describes a standard digital X-ray sensor and its associated software for image display. There is no mention of AI, ML, or advanced image processing beyond basic acquisition and display. The description of the technology (scintillator, CMOS) and connectivity (USB) aligns with conventional digital radiography.

No
The device is an X-ray sensor used to acquire dental intra-oral images, which are then displayed for diagnostic purposes. It does not provide any therapeutic effect or treatment.

No

The device is described as an X-ray sensor that acquires dental intra-oral X-ray images, which are then displayed by a software program. Its purpose is to capture images, not to provide a medical diagnosis itself.

No

The device description clearly details hardware components (digital X-ray detector, scintillating device, CMOS imager, built-in electronics) and physical connectivity (USB 2.0). While it uses software, it is fundamentally a hardware device that acquires images.

Based on the provided information, the Edlen Imaging's Gemini DUSB sensor is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • IVD devices are used to examine specimens derived from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue) to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening.
  • The Gemini DUSB sensor is a digital X-ray sensor used to acquire images of the inside of the mouth (intra-oral). It directly interacts with the patient's body using radiation, not by analyzing a biological specimen.

The device description clearly states its function is to acquire dental intra-oral X-ray images for display and use in dental applications. This falls under the category of medical imaging devices, not in vitro diagnostics.

Intended Use / Indications for Use

Edlen Imaging's Gemini DUSB sensor is a USB-driven digital X-ray sensor that acquires dental intra-oral X-ray images. The sensor will be operated by trained dental and related healthcare professionals to acquire dental intra-oral radiographs.

The Gemini sensor can be used either in combination with special positioning devices, to facilitate alignment with the x-ray beam, or it may also be positioned manually.

The Gemini sensor is a dedicated USB-driven device intended to acquire dental intraoral radiographic images. The sensor is operated by Radiologists, Dentists, Dental Assistants and or like healthcare professionals, who are duly trained and competent to both operate the Gemini sensors and take Dental X-ray radiographs. Intra oral positioning of the sensor is accomplished by the use of dedicated intra-oral positioning devices that facilitate the accurate alignment of the X-ray beam.

Dear Dr. Hoysepian:

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. Iisting of devices, good manufacturing practice. labeling, and prohibitions against misbranding and adulteration.

If your device is classified (see above) into class II (Special Controls), it may be subject to such additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in Title 21, Code of Federal Regulations (CFR), Parts 800 to 895. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register.

Please be advised that FDA's issuance of a substantial equivalence determination does not mean that FDA has made a determination that your device complies with other requirements of the Act or any Federal statutes and regulations administered by other Federal agencies.
