The document describes a web-based image viewing and processing software with no mention of AI or ML capabilities. The focus is on remote access and basic image manipulation tools.
No.
The device is described as software for diagnostic image review, enhancing, annotating, comparing, and exporting images, which are diagnostic functions, not therapeutic.
Yes
The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" section explicitly states that Dexis Webview is "used for general dental and maxillofacial diagnostic image review." Additionally, the "Device Description" mentions, "The intended use of the device is to allow dentists to be able to diagnose remotely."
Yes
The device is described as a "web-based software" and a "web browser-based accessory software application" that accesses pre-existing image data. There is no mention of any hardware components being part of the device itself, only the software's function of accessing data and providing viewing/processing tools.
Based on the provided information, this device is NOT an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Definition of IVD: In Vitro Diagnostics (IVDs) are medical devices used to perform tests on samples taken from the human body, such as blood, urine, or tissue, to detect diseases, conditions, or infections. The tests are performed outside of the body ("in vitro").
- Dexis Webview's Function: Dexis Webview is a software application that processes and displays medical images (dental and maxillofacial X-rays, camera images, etc.) for diagnostic review. It does not perform tests on biological samples.
- Intended Use: The intended use is for "general dental and maxillofacial diagnostic image review" and allows users to "view, enhance, annotate, compare, and export images." This is clearly related to interpreting visual data, not analyzing biological samples.
- Input Modality: The input modalities are imaging modalities (X-rays, cameras, scanned films), not biological samples.
While the device is used for diagnostic purposes (interpreting images to aid in diagnosis), it does so by processing and presenting visual information, not by performing tests on biological specimens. Therefore, it falls under the category of a medical imaging device or accessory software, not an In Vitro Diagnostic device.

The Dexis Webview Software is a software program for general dental and maxillofacial diagnostic imaging. It provides the ability to view, enhance, annotate, compare, and export images by accessing an existing image database available in a distributed environment. It allows remote access to x-ray digital images acquired from digital imaging systems. It can also handle other types of images acquired by digitizing film with a flatbed scanner, or color images from intraoral dental cameras as long as they are stored in an accessible database.
6
Dexis Webview allows the following functionality remotely using a standard web-browser:
- . Access and analyze x-ray images acquired from imaging plates with the Photo-Stimulable Phosphor (PSP) scanners.
- . Access and analyze x-ray images acquired using from intra-oral and extra-oral sensors.
- . Access patient files remotely via a standard web-browser with established network connectivity.
- . Access and view color images from intra-oral and extra-oral cameras,
- . Access, export, and import digital images (such as those obtained by scanning a film) in several standard file formats.
- . Process images with dental specific tools, to enhance their diagnostic value.
- Analyze and enhance images in order to gather additional diagnostic information which may not be immediately apparent on initial visual inspection.
- . Print images and image-related information over the network.
Dexis Webview is typically utilized remotely using a web-browser over a networked environment.
Substantial Equivalence
The Dexis Webview web-browser Software with the updated Indications for Use and intended use described in this submission is substantially equivalent to the Dexis Software cleared under K140445. It also satisfies all criteria of substantial equivalence based upon the above comparisons in the sections and does not raise new concerns in safety and effectiveness: (1) Indications for Use, (2) Technological Characteristics, and (3) Theory of Operations. The new device does not introduce a fundamentally new scientific technology and the nonclinical tests demonstrate that the device is safe and effective. Thus, the Dexis Webview (proposed under K151941) is substantially equivalent to the cleared Dexis Software (K140445).
Performance Data
Whereas Dexis Software can capture digital images from various sensors (e.g. intraoral), Dexis Webview can only view, enhance, annotate, compare, and export already acquired images by remotely accessing such images over the network. The proposed device has the same fundamental scientific technology, has not been reclassified, and has an intended use which correlates with that of the predicate device. The safety and effectiveness of the Dexis Webview web-browser software was evaluated via bench testing. verification and validation testing, and conformance to international conformance standards. The Dexis Webview Software performs equivalently in functionality as the cleared Dexis Software (K140445) with regards to viewing, enhancing, annotating, comparing, and exporting images by remotely accessing an existing image database available in a distributed environment. Dexis Webview complies with the following relevant standard: ISO 14971 Second edition 2007-03-01. medical devices - application of risk management to medical devices. Performance data (Verification and Validation) demonstrate that Dexis Webview web-browser software functions equivalently to the Dexis Software predicate device.
