Intended Use
The GR40CW Digital X-ray Imaging System is intended for use in general projection radiographic applications wherever conventional screen-film systems or CR systems may be used. This device is not intended for mammographic applications.
Device Description
The GR40CW digital X-ray imaging system consists of Detector, Power supply box, Battery pack, Battery charger, Access point, CIB(Control Interface Box), Workstation, Barcode scanner and Main cable. This system is used to capture images by transmitting X-ray to a patient's body. The X-ray passing through a patient's body is sent to the detector and then converted into electrical signals. These signals go through the process of amplification and digital data conversion in the signal process device being sent to the S-Station (Operation Software) and saved in DICOM file, a standard for medical imaging. The captured images are sent to the Picture Archiving & Communication System (PACS) server, and can be used for reading images.
More Information

No
The document describes a standard digital X-ray imaging system and does not mention any AI or ML components or functionalities.

No
The device is an X-ray imaging system, which is used for diagnostic purposes (capturing images). It does not provide any therapeutic intervention.

No

Explanation: The device is an X-ray imaging system used to capture images for reading, not to diagnose a condition itself. It provides images that can be used by professionals for diagnostic purposes.

No

The device description explicitly lists multiple hardware components including a Detector, Power supply box, Battery pack, Battery charger, Access point, CIB(Control Interface Box), Workstation, Barcode scanner, and Main cable, in addition to the software.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly states "general projection radiographic applications." This involves capturing images of the internal structures of the body using X-rays.
  • Device Description: The description details a system for capturing and processing X-ray images. It describes the flow of X-rays through the patient, conversion to electrical signals, and processing into digital images.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: An IVD is a medical device used to perform tests on samples taken from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue) to provide information about a person's health. This device does not perform any such tests on biological samples.

The device is an X-ray imaging system, which is a type of medical imaging device, not an in vitro diagnostic device.

Device Description

The GR40CW digital X-ray imaging system consists of Detector, Power supply box, Battery pack, Battery charger, Access point, CIB(Control Interface Box), Workstation, Barcode scanner and Main cable. This system is used to capture images by transmitting X-ray to a patient's body.

The X-ray passing through a patient's body is sent to the detector and then converted into electrical signals. These signals go through the process of amplification and digital data conversion in the signal process device being sent to the S-Station (Operation Software) and saved in DICOM file, a standard for medical imaging. The captured images are sent to the Picture Archiving & Communication System (PACS) server, and can be used for reading images.

This is a retrofit system consisting of Detectors, Power supply box, Battery charger, Access point, CIB (Control Interface Box), Workstation, Barcode scanner and Main cable. This retrofit system is designed to generate a digital image while using the current analoque X-ray system by upgrading only the part of an analogue cassette film to the digital panel(detector), and does not get involved in controlling X-ray radiation related parameters, which is still controlled by the existing X-ray system.

The GR40CW retrofit system can be applied to the existing analogue X-ray system by two ways (CIB and AED modes). 1) In CIB mode, CIB is only connected to a signal line of a hand switch for passively detecting the signal, as On or Off, coming out from the hand switch to the X-ray Generator Console, to make the digital detector ready to active or inactive to receive X-ray radiation. 2) In AED (Automatic Exposure Detection) mode, without CIB, the detector is sensing of radiation exposure. Once it recognizes the exposure, it become active right away to receive X-ray radiation. This whole process is independently operated from the existing analogue X-ray system.

Summary of Performance Studies

Clinical data: Clinical images were obtained in accordance with FDA guidance for the submission of 510(k)'s for Solid State X-Ray Imaging Devices. They were evaluated by a professional radiologist, and shown equivalent and better than the 2nd predicate device. The provided clinical data were determined to be not necessary to establish substantial equivalence with the predicate devices.

Non-clinical data: Non-clinical testing data was provided in conformance to the FDA "Guidance for the Submission of 510(k)'s for Solid-State X-ray Imaging Devices", which includes MTF and DQE measurements as tested by IEC 62220-1. The proposed device shows no difference in non-clinical testing data such as MTF and DQE measurements from the predicate device.

Image /page/5/Figure/2 description: The image shows a diagram of the GR40CW Retrofit Kit and the existing X-ray system. The GR40CW Retrofit Kit includes a detector, workstation, and CIB. The existing X-ray system includes an X-ray generator console and a hand switch. The hand switch has two steps: the first step sends a READY signal to the X-ray generator console, and the second step sends an EXPOSURE signal.

In conclusion, this retrofit kit does not either require a modification / alteration or control in the part of X-ray radiation control of the current X-ray system in anyway.

8. Intended Use

The GR40CW Digital X-ray Imaging System is intended for use in general projection radiographic applications wherever conventional screen-film systems may be used. This device is not intended for mammographic applications.
