The description focuses on the hardware components, image acquisition process, and basic image reconstruction software. There is no mention of AI, ML, or advanced image processing techniques that would typically indicate the use of such technologies. The performance studies also focus on basic image quality metrics and comparisons to a predicate device without mentioning AI/ML-specific evaluations.
No.
The device is an extraoral X-ray system for diagnostic imaging, not for treating diseases or conditions.
Yes
The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" section explicitly states that the device is suitable for "production of orthopanoramic images of the maxillofacial region, diagnostic examination of the dentition (teeth), arches and other structures of the oral cavity." The key phrase "diagnostic examination" directly indicates its use for diagnosis.
No
The device description clearly outlines significant hardware components including a rotating arm, support column, motorized movement, patient positioning means, laser positioning lights, an x-ray generator, and a CMOS solid state x-ray image detector. While software is mentioned for image creation and processing, it is integral to a larger hardware system.
Based on the provided information, the HYPERION X5 is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic) device.
Here's why:
- IVD devices are used to examine specimens derived from the human body. The intended use and device description clearly state that the HYPERION X5 is an extraoral X-ray system used to produce images of the maxillofacial region, dentition, and other structures within the patient's body. It does not analyze samples taken from the patient.
- The device description focuses on imaging technology. The description details the X-ray generation, detection, and image formation process, which are characteristic of medical imaging devices, not IVD devices.
- The performance studies are based on imaging quality and geometric accuracy. The studies described compare the image resolution, geometric performance, and ability to maintain information level under different exposure conditions. These are relevant metrics for imaging devices, not IVD devices which would typically focus on analytical performance metrics like sensitivity, specificity, etc.
Therefore, the HYPERION X5 is a medical imaging device, not an In Vitro Diagnostic device.

Device Description
The HYPERION X5 is manufactured by Cefla S.C. but it can be sold under two different brands and commercial name Hyperion X5 and NewTom GO. The device can be set in three different installation configurations: Suspended version, Floor version with column and wall bracket and Floor version with column and standard base.
The Hyperion X5 apparatus consists of one rotating arm attached to the support column. The powered rotating arm is capable of rotating for about 210° and translating thereby allowing the x-ray emission system and image detector to be moved around the patient according to complex orbits that follow the morphological profile. The rotating arm is attached to a support column capable of moving vertically through a motorized movement in order to allow it to perform the panoramic exposition.
The system provides patient positioning means such as handles and bite point with chin rest. The correct patient positioning is guided by 3 LASER positioning lights. The x-ray generator provides up to 85 kV, 15 mA to the x-ray tube, and the scanning process is performed by an independent axes cinematic unit. The system is equipped with CMOS solid state x-ray image detector, with associated electronics. The solid state CMOS detector contain a Cs(Tl) scintillator able to capture the radiation emitted by the x-ray generator, converting it in fluorescence and then in electric charge, accumulated by each pixel according to the light intensity. The accumulated charge in each row is sequentially selected by vertical shift registers for row scan, transferred to the amplifier and converted in voltage signal and than converted in a 14bit digital signal that transfered to the PC, trough the Ethernet connection, allow to create a set of by dimensional images acquired during the movement of the rotating arm along the designed orbits. These set of images suitably interconnected, allow at the software to create the panoramic standard image in order to show the exam result, store and evaluate it.

The non-clinical performance tests executed are:
-
- Comparison with QUART Technical Phantom (DIN 6868-5) on X9 and X5 Standard Panoramic X-rays. This test allow to demonstrate that both Hyperion X5 that the predicate device, together with their sensors and background software, are able to produce images with comparable level of resolution.
-
- Geometrical Comparison with Standard Technical CEFLA Phantom on 2D Dental Panoramic Projections. This test allow to demonstrate that both Hyperion X5 that the predicate device are able to produce images with comparable magnification of vertical and horizontal lines and orthogonality errors).
-
- Comparison between Hyperion X5 and X9 Panoramic Under- and Over-Exposed X-ray. This test allow to evaluate the behaviour of the two devices, and in particular the behaviour of the two 2D sensors and of the two reconstruction software used in the subject device and in the predicate device, when a PANORAMIC exposition is performed in extreme exposition (under and over exposition).
The non clinical performance tests allow to demonstrate that the images produced by the Hyperion X5 have similar resolution, similar geometrical performances (magnification of vertical lines and orthogonality errors), similar ability to maintain information level, also in very extreme exposition conditions, and are also comparable in term of clinical outcome.

The HYPERION X5 is regulated under the 21 CFR 872.1800 as "Extraoral source x-ray system" with product code MUH, these regulation number and product code are different from the regulation number and classification product code of HYPERION X9 (K123381) that is regulated under 21 CFR892.1750 "Computed tomography x-ray system" with classification product code OAS , but the product code of the Hyperion X5 is equal to the subsequent product code of the predicate device (MUH), since the Hyperion X5 is a simplified version of the HYPERION X9 (K123381) able to perform only panoramic function instead of panoramic, cephalometric and computed tomography functions, performed by Hyperion X9.
Since HYPERION X5 is a simplified version of the HYPERION X9, it performs only panoramic X-ray in 2D mode and it did not produce other radiographic exposition as Cephalometric and Computed tomography. For this reason, the indications for use of the HYPERION X5 are a subset of the indications for use of the predicate device only related to the 2D mode applications.
Both the predicate device, are indicated to be used on adult and paediatric population, in both the machines, is possible select PAN, DENT, SIN, TMJ expositions selecting the kind of patients between Male, female and child, and in case of male and female (adults) is possible also select the size between large, medium and small. In both machines the child exposition is unique and no further subdivision of size are allowed.
About X-ray emission the X-ray tube head voltage for the Hyperion X5 is selectable in steps of 1 kV from 60 to 85 kV as in the predicate device when it works in 2D mode, while 5 the anodic current is selectable from 4 to 15mA, instead of the range of the anodic current selectable for the HYPERION X9 (K123381) that is from 1 to 10mA. The other features related to the X-ray emission, as the X-ray beam and the type of emission are respectively fan-shaped and continuous emission, both for Hyperion X5 that for predicate device. Since the X-ray emission has been validated in compliance with the same standard (IEC60601-2-63) both for Hyperion X5 that for Hyperion X9 (K123381) and that the effectiveness of the x-ray emission together with the SSD Detector and the image acquisition process has been compared in the specific comparative performance bench tests described in the section 7 "Performance data, these differences are not considered relevant for the substantial equivalence of the two devices
About SSD Detector & Image acquisition, the HYPERION X5 uses a linear CMOS detector made of Cs| (Cesiume lodide) material with a pixel dimension of 100 um instead of the digital CCD sensor made of Csl used by the predicate device, but with a pixel dimension of 48 µm. The MTF value is very similar between the two sensor as the DQE. The path used to acquire the image, is different between the subject device and the predicate because the Hyperion X5 moves the rotating arm with a trajectory designed on 2 axis with a 210-degree rotation of the rotational arm, instead of the three axis with 360-degree rotation of the rotational arm, used by the Hyperion X9.
All these differences are not considered relevant for the substantial equivalence of the two devices because the images produced by the two sensors are considered comparable in term of technical features of the images (comparable resolution, distortion performances and with similar information in term of gray level, also in extreme exposition conditions) and also for the more significant clinical aspects required by a dentist
8
to this kind of device. These considerations are supported by the specific comparative performance bench tests described in the section 7 "Performance data".
As the predicate devices HYPERION X9 (K123381), the HYPERION X5 uses luminous laser traces to guide patient positioning. These traces are projected by the identical class I laser beamers.
The viewing and control software used on the subject device is substantially equivalent to the one used for the predicate device, "Hyperion X9 (K123381)", unless for the user interface used by the dentist to select the process parameters, that for the subject device has been developed with a specific Virtual Keyboard module that runs on a PC, and not directly installed into the firmware of the device.
The firmware and the software (VKB on PC) of the Hyperion X5, for the PAN, DENT, SIN, TMJ expositions, performs the same functions and algorithms of the predicate device, omitting all functions not related to the intended use as ie. CBCT exposition. Furthermore both the software has been validate in compliance to the IEC62304 and FDA Guidance on MD SW.
7. Performance Data
Since the "Guidance for the Submission of 510(k)'s for Solid State X-ray Imaging Devices" require to provide samples of test pattern images (SSXI and predicate) that show the device to provide images equivalent to those of a predicate device(s), CEFLA has performed some non clinical bench tests in order to compare the performances of the subject device with the Hyperion X9 (K123381). Furthermore
The non clinical performance tests executed are:
-
- Comparison with QUART Technical Phantom (DIN 6868-5) on X9 and X5 Standard Panoramic X-rays. This test allow to demonstrate that both Hyperion X5 that the predicate device, together with their sensors and background software, are able to produce images with comparable level of resolution
-
- Geometrical Comparison with Standard Technical CEFLA Phantom on 2D Dental Panoramic Projections. This test allow to demonstrate that both Hyperion X5 that the predicate device are able to produce images with comparable magnification of vertical and horizontal lines and orthogonality errors)
-
- Comparison between Hyperion X5 and X9 Panoramic Under- and Over-Exposed X-ray. This test allow to evaluate the behaviour of the two devices, and in particular the behaviour of the two 2D sensors and of the two reconstruction software used in the subject device and in the predicate device, when a PANORAMIC exposition is performed in extreme exposition (under and over exposition).
Furthermore the Hyperion X5 is designed according to the FDA "Guidance for the Submission of 510(k)'s for Solid State X-ray Imaging Devices" and also designed, tested and found to be compliant with IEC 60601-1, 60601-1-2, 60601-1-3, 60601-1-6 and 62366, 60601-2-63 and 62304, exactly as its predicate devices
The non clinical performance tests allow to demonstrate that the images produced by the Hyperion X5 have similar resolution, similar geometrical performances (magnification of vertical lines and orthogonality errors), similar ability to maintain information level, also in very extreme exposition conditions, and are also comparable in term of clinical outcome.
For these reasons the results of the non clinical performance together with the compliance to the same standards allow to demonstrate the substantial equivalence of the Hyperion X5 and the predicate device.
Conclusions
Do to all the above described reasons, we affirm that Hyperion X5 is substantially equivalent to the predicate device since it can be consider as safety and effectiveness as the predicate device.
