Device Description
The Aquilion CXL is a whole body multi-slice helical CT System, consisting of a gantry, patient couch and console. The system generates up to 128 slices per rotation using a selectable slice-thickness multi-row detector. Additionally, the Aquilion CXL will utilize the new dose-reduction technologies adopted from Aquilion ONE (currently under FDA review), the system substantially reduces patient exposure dose and improves image quality.
More Information

No
The summary describes a standard CT system with dose reduction technologies, but there is no mention of AI or ML in the device description, intended use, or performance studies.

No
The device is described as an imaging system (CT System) used for the acquisition and display of x-ray images, with an emphasis on reducing patient dose and improving image quality. Its purpose is diagnostic imaging, not therapeutic treatment.

Yes
The device is described as a "multi-slice helical CT System" used for "Acquisition and display of axial x-ray images of the whole body." CT scans are a common diagnostic imaging modality used by healthcare professionals to visualize internal structures for the diagnosis of medical conditions.

No

The device description clearly states it is a "whole body multi-slice helical CT System, consisting of a gantry, patient couch and console," which are hardware components.

Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is "Acquisition and display of axial x-ray images of the whole body to include the head." This describes an imaging device used to visualize internal structures of the body.
  • Device Description: The description details a CT system, which is a type of medical imaging equipment that uses X-rays to create cross-sectional images of the body.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: IVD 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 device directly images the body itself, not specimens taken from it.

Therefore, the Aquilion CXL is a medical imaging device, specifically a CT scanner, and does not fit the definition of an In Vitro Diagnostic device.

N/A

Intended Use / Indications for Use

This device is designed to produce cross-sectional images of a human body by reconstruction of x-ray transmission data from the same axial plane taken at different angles. These images have been proven to be clinically useful in the diagnosis of spine and head injuries, intracranial tumors, blood clots in the brain, eye trauma, soft tissue lesions in the extremities, gastro intestinal lesions, abdominal and pelvic malignancies and hepatic metastases. CT is also used to evaluate intestinal obstructions, as intra-abdominal abnormalities and to examine musculoskeletal degeneration. This device employs no intended uses that are not in cleared devices already found in the market place.

Dear Mr. Biggins:

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 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.
