No
The summary explicitly states "Mentions AI, DNN, or ML: Not Found" and the description focuses on standard digital radiography technology and a wireless feature.
No
The device is a digital radiography system intended for diagnostic imaging, not for treating or preventing disease.
Yes
The device is described as being "intended to replace radiographic film/screen systems in all general-purpose diagnostic procedures" and for "general radiographic images of human anatomy." This directly indicates its diagnostic purpose.
No
The device description explicitly states it is a "digital radiography system, featuring an integrated flat panel digital detector (FPD)" and mentions hardware components like the panel and wireless features, indicating it is a hardware device with associated software.
Based on the provided information, the ATAL 9 is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic) device.
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use clearly states it's for "general radiographic images of human anatomy" and is intended to "replace radiographic film/screen systems." This describes an imaging device used to visualize internal structures of the body, not a device used to examine specimens (like blood, urine, or tissue) outside the body.
- Device Description: The description details a "digital radiography system" with a "flat panel digital detector" that performs "digital radiographic examinations." This aligns with an imaging device.
- Input Imaging Modality: The input is "X-ray," which is a form of radiation used for imaging the body, not for analyzing biological samples.
- Anatomical Site: The device is used on "human anatomy," indicating it's applied directly to the patient.
- Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of analyzing biological samples, reagents, or any other components typically associated with in vitro diagnostics.
IVD devices are used to examine specimens obtained from the human body to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening. The ATAL 9 is an in vivo imaging device used to create images of the body itself.

Device Description
The ATAL 9 is a digital radiography system, featuring an integrated flat panel digital detector (FPD). ATAL 9 is designed to perform digital radiographic examinations as a replacement for conventional film. This integrated platform provides the benefits of PACS with the advantages of digital radiography for a filmless environment and improves cost effectiveness. The major functions and principle of operation of the modified panel are the same as our previous panel with a Wi-Fi wireless feature added.

Summary of Performance Studies
Clinical images collected demonstrate equal or better image quality as compared to our predicate.
IEC Standards were employed for: Electrical Safety and Electromagnetic Compatibility. MTF and DQE measurements, Risk Analysis and Software verification were conducted in accordance with FDA guidance documents. As expected the DQE and MTF measurements show minimal differences, and the limiting resolution is the same. The software remains the same as in K113812. Wireless communication testing was performed to verify wireless connectivity. The device was also found to comply with FCC requirements for wireless operation. Bench testing was performed in accordance with the FDA Guidance for the Submission of 510(k)'s for Solid State X-ray Imaging Devices.
Clinical images were acquired and evaluated by a board certified radiologist who concluded the images from the new panel are as good as or better than the images acquired with the predicate panel, as required by the FDA Guidance for the Submission of 510(k)'s for Solid State X-ray Imaging Devices. The core technology of the panel remains the same. The provided clinical data was not used to support a determination of substantial equivalence due to the minor modifications and adequate bench testing data.

- Description of the Device: The ATAL 9 is a MODIFICATION of our clearance K113812 wherein we have changed panel to a wireless version of the previously cleared panel/software combination. Going wireless with battery operation are the ONLY modifications. The available scintillators (CsI or GOS) remain the same. The triggering methods (AED or manual trigger) remain the same. When used with an electrical synchronization circuit the following generators are known to properly synchronize: Sedecal SHF Series and CPI 200 Series.
The ATAL 9 is a digital radiography system, featuring an integrated flat panel digital detector (FPD). ATAL 9 is designed to perform digital radiographic examinations as a replacement for conventional film. This integrated platform provides the benefits of PACS with the advantages of digital radiography for a filmless environment and improves cost effectiveness. The major functions and principle of operation of the modified panel are the same as our previous panel with a Wi-Fi wireless feature added.

- Safety and Effectiveness, comparison to predicate device. The results of clinical image inspection, bench, and test laboratory results indicates that the new device is as safe and effective as the predicate device. Clinical images collected demonstrate equal or better image quality as compared to our predicate.

- Summary of Bench Testing Conducted: IEC Standards were employed for: Electrical Safety and Electromagnetic Compatibility. MTF and DQE measurements, Risk Analysis and Software verification were conducted in accordance with FDA guidance documents. As expected the DQE and MTF measurements show minimal differences, and the limiting resolution is the same. The software remains the same as in K113812. Wireless communication testing was performed to verify wireless connectivity. The device was also found to comply with FCC requirements for wireless operation. Bench testing was performed in accordance with the FDA Guidance for the Submission of 510(k)'s for Solid State X-ray Imaging Devices.
-
- Summary of Clinical Testing: Clinical images were acquired and evaluated by a board certified radiologist who concluded the images from the new panel are as good as or better than the images acquired with the predicate panel, as required by the FDA Guidance for the Submission of 510(k)'s for Solid State X-ray Imaging Devices. The core technology of the panel remains the same. The provided clinical data was not used to support a determination of substantial equivalence due to the minor modifications and adequate bench testing data.
-
- Conclusion: After analyzing bench, clinical image, and external laboratory testing to applicable standards, it is the conclusion of Atlaim that the ATAL 9 (Wireless) is as safe and effective as the predicate device. The Atlaim ATAL 9 has the same intended use as the legally marketed predicate device. Although the ATAL 9 has different technological characteristics, including the addition of wireless technology to the digital image receptor, those differences do not raise different questions of safety and effectiveness from the predicate device. The effects of these differences were adequately documented with bench testing data which showed that the ATAL 9 is substantially equivalent to the predicate device.
