The document describes standard image reconstruction and processing techniques for Cone Beam CT and Panoramic X-ray systems. There is no mention of AI, ML, or any related terms or concepts in the provided text.
No
The device is described as an imaging system that provides diagnostic information through X-ray images, not as a device used for therapy.
Yes
The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" states that the device provides "diagnostic support" and the "Device Description" notes that when images are "interpreted by a trained physician, these images provide useful diagnostic information."
No
The device description explicitly lists multiple hardware components including the scanner, main affixed unit, overhead, gantry, tube head, X-ray source assembly and collimator, receptor panel, and an electric powered seat. While it includes a software package, it is part of a larger hardware system.
Based on the provided text, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostics are tests performed on samples such as blood, urine, or tissue that have been taken from the human body to detect diseases, conditions, or infections.
- Device Function: The description clearly states that the i-CAT family of devices are x-ray systems that produce images of the head area. They are used for diagnostic support and planning based on these images.
- No Sample Analysis: There is no mention of the device analyzing biological samples taken from the patient. Its function is to generate images of the patient's anatomy.
Therefore, the i-CAT FLX and other devices in the i-CAT family are medical imaging devices, not In Vitro Diagnostic devices.

Intended Use / Indications for Use
Devices of the i-CAT family consist of an x-ray system that uses a cone beam with a rotational sequence, providing two dimensional images and three dimensional volume reconstructions of the head area, which includes ENT and maxillofacial areas (such as TM Joint studies, mandible & maxilla for implant planning and diagnostic support in adult and pediatic care. Devices of the i-C AT family comprise a package of software modules capable of handling 2D and 3D data. This includes 3D reconstruction, storage, retrieval, viewing, and processing of 2D and 3D-image data.

Device Description
i-CAT FLX was developed as an upgrade to the existing i-CAT Scanner. i-CAT FLX, manufactured by Imaging Sciences International, is a Cone Beam Volumetric Tomography and Panoramic X-ray dental imaging system that consists of a scanner and a software package for image reconstruction. It is a device in the i-CAT Scanner family. The components of the system include the main affixed unit, the overhead, the gantry, the tube head, the X-ray source assembly and collimator, the receptor panel, and software package for image reconstruction. The system is an open design that allows patients to sit upright during a procedure. An electric powered seat is built into the scanner for proper patient positioning.
Cone Beam Volumetric Tomography is a medical imaging technique that uses X-rays to obtain crosssectional images of the head or neck. The proposed device utilizes cone beam X-ray technology, which generates conical x-ray beams that rotate around the patient's head and incident upon the receptor that generate sufficiently contrasted images. Quality of the images depends on the level and amount of X-ray energy delivered to the tissue. When interpreted by a trained physician, these images provide useful diagnostic information.

Summary of Performance Studies (study type, sample size, AUC, MRMC, standalone performance, key results)
Performance bench testing was conducted as part of design control to ensure the safety and effectiveness of i-CAT FLX is equivalent to the predicate devices. The safety and effectiveness of i-CAT FLX for the proposed indications for use is substantiated through verification and validation testing on two dimensional images and three dimensional volume reconstructions of the head area, which includes ENT and maxillofacial areas, for use in planning and diagnostic support in adult and pediatric care. The use of i-CAT FLX for pediatric care, including considerations for proper positioning of pediatric patients for image acquisition, has also been verified and validated.

generates conical x-ray beams that rotate around the patient's head and incident upon the receptor that generate sufficiently contrasted images. Quality of the images depends on the level and amount of X-ray energy delivered to the tissue. When interpreted by a trained physician, these images provide useful diagnostic information.
Indications for Use:
Devices of the i-CAT family consist of an x-ray system that uses a cone beam with a rotational sequence, providing two dimensional images and three dimensional volume reconstructions of the head area, which includes ENT and maxillofacial areas (such as TM Joint studies, maxilla for implant planning, sinuses), for use in planning and diagnostic support in adult and pediatric care.
Devices of the i-CAT family comprise a package of software modules capable of handling 2D and 3D data. This includes 3D reconstruction, storage, retrieval, viewing, and processing of 2D and 3D-image data.
The proposed indications for use above of i-CAT FLX include expansions into ENT (ear nose throat) region and pediatric care. The proposed device has been verified and validated to satisfy the requirements derived from the indications for use.
Summary of Technological Characteristics:
i-CAT FLX shares the same architectural components as both predicate devices including:
- An X-ray source on a motorized gantry .
- Collimation of X-ray ●
- . Two-dimensional (2D) X-ray detector
- . A patient positioning and support system to ensure stability of the patient during scan.
- A software package which prepares and displays three dimensional (3D) reconstructions of the . acquired data.
As evidenced through the Design Verification and Validation, i-CAT FLX can produce volumetric and panoramic images of the maxillofacial (including ENT) areas in the head, and they are of equivalent diagnostic quality as GALILEOS. The minor technological difference in the shape of image volumes does not affect imaging of the intended anatomical structures.
Based upon an analysis of the technological differences, and the substantiation through design verification and validation, ISI determines that the safety and effectiveness of the proposed i-CAT FLX is substantially equivalent to the predicate devices, i-CAT Scanner (K061284) and GALILEOS Comfort Plus (K123070) and does not raise any new concerns.

Non-Clinical Test Data:
Performance bench testing was conducted as part of design control to ensure the safety and effectiveness of i-CAT FLX is equivalent to the predicate devices. The safety and effectiveness of i-CAT FLX for the proposed indications for use is substantiated through verification and validation testing on two dimensional images and three dimensional volume reconstructions of the head area, which includes ENT and maxillofacial areas, for use in planning and diagnostic support in adult and pediatric care. The use of i-CAT FLX for pediatric care, including considerations for proper positioning of pediatric patients for image acquisition, has also been verified and validated. Biocompatibility evaluation was conducted on patient contacting accessory parts and found to be in conformance with ISO 10993-10. EMC and Electrical Safety testing on i-CAT FLX was performed by Intertek Testing Services and found to meet all the requirements in standards IEC 60601-1-6:2010, IEC 62366:2007, IEC 60601-2-63:2012 and IEC 60601-1-2:2007.
Clinical Test Data:
Sample clinical images acquired using i-CAT FLX were reviewed to be of acceptable clinical effectiveness for the proposed indications for use.
Conclusion:
Based on the comparison of intended use, design, technological characteristics, performance, safety, effectiveness, labeling, biocompatibility, standards, and other characteristics, the minor differences between i-CAT FLX device, and the predicate devices, i-CAT Scanner (K062184) and GALILEOS Comfort Plus (K123070), do not raise new concerns in safety and effectiveness for the proposed indications of use. ISI concludes that i-CAT FLX is substantially equivalent to the predicate devices.
