Intended Use
Intended for use by a qualified/trained doctor or technician on both adult and pediatric subjects for taking diagnostic radiographic exposures of the skull, spinal column, chest, abdomen, extremities, and other body parts. Applications can be performed with the patient sitting, standing, or lying in the prone or supine position. (Not for mammography)
Device Description
This is a complete stationary diagnostic x-ray system employing a digital x-ray panel coupled with image acquisition software. The acquisition software is installed on a Windows compatible workstation. The high frequency generator is available in four different power ratings. All components are either 510(k) exempt or previously cleared. The only difference between the two models is the configuration of the tube stand. Galaxy has a straight arm and the Galaxy+ Plus is in a U-Arm configuration. Generators are available in 40-50-65-or 80 kW (High Frequency) models.
More Information

No
The summary describes a standard digital x-ray system with image acquisition software. There is no mention of AI, ML, or any advanced image processing features that would suggest the use of these technologies. The performance studies focus on electrical safety, EMC, software validation, risk analysis, and image quality evaluation by radiologists, which are typical for conventional x-ray systems.

No
The device is described as a "complete stationary diagnostic x-ray system" used for "taking diagnostic radiographic exposures," indicating its purpose is for diagnosis, not therapy.

Yes
Explanation: The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" states the device is "for taking diagnostic radiographic exposures". The "Device Description" also refers to it as a "complete stationary diagnostic x-ray system".

No

The device description explicitly states it is a "complete stationary diagnostic x-ray system employing a digital x-ray panel coupled with image acquisition software" and includes hardware components like a high frequency generator and tube stand.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly states the device is for "taking diagnostic radiographic exposures" of various body parts. This is a process that happens in vivo (within the living body) to produce images for diagnosis.
  • Device Description: The description details a "stationary diagnostic x-ray system" that uses a digital x-ray panel and image acquisition software. This is consistent with medical imaging equipment used to visualize internal structures of the body.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: IVD devices are typically used to examine specimens (like blood, urine, or tissue) in vitro (outside the living body) to provide information for diagnosis. The description and intended use of this device do not involve the analysis of biological specimens.

The device is a medical imaging system used for diagnostic purposes, but it operates by generating and capturing X-rays of the patient's body, not by analyzing samples in a lab setting.

§ 892.1680 Stationary x-ray system.

(a)
Identification. A stationary x-ray system is a permanently installed diagnostic system intended to generate and control x-rays for examination of various anatomical regions. This generic type of device may include signal analysis and display equipment, patient and equipment supports, component parts, and accessories.(b)
Classification. Class II (special controls). A radiographic contrast tray or radiology diagnostic kit intended for use with a stationary x-ray system only is exempt from the premarket notification procedures in subpart E of part 807 of this chapter subject to the limitations in § 892.9.
