Intended Use
The GC70 Digital X-ray Imaging System is intended for use in generating radiographic images of human anatomy by a qualified/trained doctor or technician. This device is not intended for mammographic applications.
Device Description
The GC70 digital X-ray imaging 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 before 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

Not Found

No
The description focuses on standard digital X-ray imaging processes and does not mention AI or ML capabilities. While image processing is mentioned, it's a common feature in digital imaging and not necessarily indicative of AI/ML.

No
The device is an imaging system designed to generate radiographic images for diagnostic purposes, not to treat or cure any medical condition.

Yes
This device is a diagnostic device as it is used to generate radiographic images for the purpose of reading and evaluating human anatomy. The images are sent to a PACS server and can be used for "reading images," which implies diagnostic interpretation.

No

The device description clearly outlines hardware components like an X-ray generator, detector, and signal processing device, in addition to the operation 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 the device is for "generating radiographic images of human anatomy." This is a diagnostic imaging device, not a device used to examine specimens (like blood, urine, or tissue) in vitro (outside the body).
  • Device Description: The description details the process of capturing X-ray images of a patient's body and converting them into digital data for viewing and storage. This is consistent with an imaging system, not an IVD.
  • Input Imaging Modality: The input modality is X-ray, which is a form of medical imaging, not a method used for in vitro diagnostics.

IVD devices are used to perform tests on samples taken from the human body to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening. This device operates by imaging the body directly.

Intended Use / Indications for Use

Dear Mr. Kim:

We have reviewed your Section 510(k) premarket notification of intent to market the device referenced above and have determined the device is substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to legally marketed predicate devices marketed in interstate commerce prior to May 28, 1976, the enactment date of the Medical Device Amendments, or to devices that have been reclassified in accordance with the provisions of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (Act) that do not require approval of a premarket approval application (PMA). You may, therefore, market the device, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act. The general controls provisions of the Act include requirements for annual registration, listing of devices, good manufacturing practice, labeling, and prohibitions against misbranding and adulteration. Please note: CDRH does not evaluate information related to contract liability warranties. We remind you, however, that device labeling must be truthful and not misleading.

Description

The SimGrid is an additional image processing software option which is able to compensate the contrast loss due to scatter radiations, primarily acquisitions without a physical anti-scatter grid.

The Bone Suppression Software features that will be made to Samsung Digital X-ray imaging Systems are adding Samsung's new post image processing algorithm. This SW can provide companion images to assist diagnosis in addition to the images obtained from normal diagnosis protocol. The Bone Suppression software option suppresses bone anatomy to enhance visualization of chest pathology in a companion image that is delivered in addition to the original diagnostic image.
