Intended Use

VEX-P300 is an extraoral diagnostic dental X-ray source to produce X-ray images using intraoral image receptors. It is indicated for use by a dental technician for both adult and pediatric patients.

Device Description

VEX-P300, a portable dental X-ray system, operates on 22.2V DC supplied by a rechargeable Li-ion polymer battery pack. The portable x-ray system is an x-ray generating device which is mainly designed for dental examination (teeth and jaw). The portable X-ray system is composed of an x-ray generating part with an x-ray tube including a device controller, a power controller, a user interface, a beam limiting part, a back scattering shield, and an optional remote exposure switch. VEX-P300 is designed to diagnose tooth and jaw through X-ray exposure using intraoral image receptors.

AI/ML Overview

The document describes the EzRay Air (Model VEX-P300), an extraoral diagnostic dental X-ray source, and compares it to a predicate device, the NOMAD Pro X-ray System (K081664). The focus of the provided text is on demonstrating substantial equivalence to the predicate device, rather than defining specific acceptance criteria for a new AI/ML-driven diagnostic device. Therefore, much of the requested information regarding AI/ML-specific acceptance criteria, ground truth, and expert evaluation is not present in this document.

However, I can extract the information related to the device's technical performance and the studies conducted to establish its equivalence.

1. A table of acceptance criteria and the reported device performance

The document does not explicitly present a table of acceptance criteria with corresponding performance values in the way one might expect for a diagnostic accuracy assessment of an AI device. Instead, it focuses on demonstrating compliance with federal and international standards for X-ray systems and verifying similar performance to the predicate device. The "acceptance criteria" here are implied by adherence to these standards and comparable performance to the predicate.

2. Sample size used for the test set and the data provenance

The document describes "Performance Bench Testing" conducted on the subject device (EzRay Air VEX-P300) and the predicate device (NOMAD Pro X-ray System). This testing involved physical measurements and evaluations of the X-ray systems' output and safety characteristics. It does not refer to a "test set" in the context of diagnostic images or data for an AI algorithm.

  • Sample size for test set: Not applicable in the context of images or diagnostic data for AI. The "test set" here refers to the devices themselves and the conditions under which they were tested. The assessment was done on one subject device and one predicate device.
  • Data provenance: Not applicable in the context of retrospective/prospective diagnostic data. The "data" comes from physical measurements and evaluations of the devices' X-ray output and safety in a laboratory or testing environment. The country of origin of the data is implied to be from the testing facilities that generated the compliance reports, likely associated with the manufacturer (VATECH Co., Ltd. in Korea) or accredited testing bodies.

3. Number of experts used to establish the ground truth for the test set and the qualifications of those experts

This is not applicable as the study described is a technical performance and safety validation of an X-ray hardware device, not a diagnostic AI algorithm that requires expert-established ground truth for image interpretation. The "ground truth" for this type of device relates to adherence to physical parameters and safety standards.

4. Adjudication method (e.g., 2+1, 3+1, none) for the test set

Not applicable. The evaluation focused on objective physical measurements and compliance with technical standards, not on expert adjudication of diagnostic interpretations.

5. If a multi reader multi case (MRMC) comparative effectiveness study was done, If so, what was the effect size of how much human readers improve with AI vs without AI assistance

Not applicable. This submission is for an X-ray device, not an AI algorithm. Therefore, no MRMC study or assessment of human reader performance with or without AI assistance was conducted or discussed.

6. If a standalone (i.e. algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) was done

Not applicable. This submission is for an X-ray device, not an AI algorithm.

7. The type of ground truth used (expert consensus, pathology, outcomes data, etc.)

The "ground truth" for this submission is based on established engineering principles, international and federal safety and performance standards for X-ray generating equipment (e.g., IEC 60601 series, 21 CFR 1020.30 and 1020.31), and the technical specifications of the predicate device. It's about verifiable physical properties and output, not diagnostic outcomes from patient data.

8. The sample size for the training set

Not applicable. This document pertains to the performance and safety testing of an X-ray hardware device, not an AI or machine learning algorithm that requires a training set.

9. How the ground truth for the training set was established

Not applicable, as there is no training set mentioned or used in the context of this device submission.

9. Performance Data

- Summary of Performance Testing

The performance test for the subject device, VEX-P300 and the predicate device, NOMAD Pro X-ray System (K081664) confirmed that the focal spot to skin distance for both devices were longer than the minimum length of 20 cm. Accuracy of loading factors and reproducibility of Air KERMA for both X-ray systems also met the essential performance requirements (ex. kVp ≤ ±10 %). Both devices demonstrated similar performance outcomes in terms of HVL, limitation of the x-ray field and leakage radiation test which rendered satisfactory X-ray performance results in accordance with Federal Standard (21CFR 1020.30 and 31) requirements.

- Safety, EMC and Performance Data

The subject device complies with the safety and performance standards listed in the chart above, 'Substantial Equivalence Chart'. Test reports were provided to demonstrate conformance. All test results were complied with the requirements.

10. The differences between the subject device and the predicate device

The VEX-P300 Portable X-ray system described in this traditional 510(k) is similar to the predicate device in its indications for use, design, technology, functions, and principle of operation. The differences between the subject device and the predicate device are as follows:

① Device Size Subject device-280 x 165 x 296 mm Predicate device-266.7 x 133.35 x 304.8 mm હી ટેટા

Subject device-200 mm Predicate device-210 mm

3 Backscatter radiation protection size (diameter):

Subject device-165 mm dia. Predicate device-171.45 mm dia.

(4) Exposure time Subject device-0.05 - 0.5 seconds in 0.01 increments Predicate device-0.02 - 1.00 seconds in 0.01 increments

ട്ര Tube voltage (kVp), Tube current(mA)

Subject device-2.5 mA fixed, 60 or 65 kVp fixed Predicate device-2.5 mA fixed, 60 kVp fixed

The Performance Bench Testing demonstrated that these differences do not raise new questions of safety and effectiveness in comparison with the predicate device.

11. Conclusions

The subject device and the predicate device have similar indications for use and demonstrated similar design, technology, functions, and principle of operation. As demonstrated in the performance bench testing, X-ray performance and X-ray Safety and Image evaluation of the new and predicate devices were tested in accordance with Federal standard 21CFR Part 1020.30 and 31 as well as international standards such as IEC 60601-1, 60601-2-65, and 61223-3-4. Both the subject and predicate devices met the essential performance parameters

{7}------------------------------------------------

including accuracy of loading factors, Reproducibility of Air KERMA, Focal Spot to Skin Distance, Leakage radiation, and Low Contrast & Line Pair performance requirements.

Quality assurance procedures are adhered to, and the specifications and functional requirements were met as the test results indicated.

In accordance with the Federal Food, Drug and Cosmetic Act, 21 CFR Part 807 and based on the information provided in this premarket notification. VATECH Co., Ltd. concludes that VEX-P300 is substantially equivalent to predicate device as described herein.
