No
The device description explicitly lists multiple hardware components including the Gantry, X-ray System, Data Management System, Patient Table, Console, Power Supply Cabinet, and Image Processing Computer, in addition to the software. This indicates it is a hardware system with integrated software, not a software-only medical device.
Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- IVD Definition: In vitro diagnostics are tests performed on samples taken from the human body, such as blood, urine, or tissue, to detect diseases, conditions, or infections. They are used to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening.
- Device Function: The description clearly states that the uCT Computed Tomography X-ray System uCT 530/550 is an imaging system that uses X-rays to produce cross-sectional images of the body. It works by reconstructing data from X-ray transmission through the body.
- No Sample Analysis: The device does not analyze any samples taken from the body. It directly interacts with the body using X-rays.
Therefore, this device falls under the category of medical imaging devices, not in vitro diagnostics.

Device Description
The uCT 530/uCT 550 is a multi-slice X-ray computed tomography scanner which features a continuously rotating tube-detector system and functions according to the fan beam principle. The system provides the filter back-projection (FBP) algorithm to reconstruct images in DICOM format. which can be used by post-processing applications.
The system consists of the Gantry, X-ray System, Data Management System, Patient Table, Console, Power Supply Cabinet, Image Processing Computer, and Software. The system software is a program used for patient management, data management, Xray scan control, image reconstruction, and image archive.
A motorized patient table moves the patient through a circular opening in the Gantry. As the patient passes through the Gantry, a source of x rays rotates around the inside of the circular opening. Detectors on the exit side of the patient record the X rays exiting the section of the patient's body being irradiated as an X-ray "snapshot". Many different "snapshots" (angles) are collected during one complete rotation. The data are sent to a computer to reconstruct all of the individual "snapshots" into a crosssectional image (slice) of the internal organs and tissues for each complete rotation of the source of x rays.
There are two features for denoising and reduce metal artifact, which are KARL iterative denoising reconstruction algorithm and MAC Metal artifact correction algorithm.

Note 4 | Provides the smaller detector element number per row that induces less data sampling for CT imaging but provides sufficient data sampling for reconstruction which does not affect safety and effectiveness. |
---|---|
Note 5 | The number of detector rows is determined by Z-plane coverage and size of detector element in Z-plane, which does not affect safety and effectiveness. |
Note 6 | With a reconstruction process, 40 slices or 80 slices can be achieved from the 40 rows detector. Provides the smaller slice number in one rotation induces longer scanning time for CT imaging, which does not affect safety and effectiveness. |
Note 7 | Minimum slice thickness is determined by size of detector element in Z-plane, which does not affect safety and effectiveness. |
Note 8 | Tube anode storage capacity is a kind of measurement about the maximum throughput of CT scanner. When an independent scan is implemented, the tube is heated and if the time interval between two independent scans is long enough, the heat can be dissipated timely but for short scan time interval, the heat which has not been dissipated timely should be stored within tube device and thus for the continuous scans (for short scan time intervals), higher storage capacity means that more continuous scan numbers can be supported. However, tube anode storage capacity has no effect on each independent scan. |
Note 9 | Maximum cooling rate is a kind of measurement about the maximum throughput of CT scanner. For the continuous scans, higher maximum cooling rate means that the tube heat can be dissipated faster and thus shorter scan time interval and more continuous scan numbers can be supported. However, it has no effect on each independent scan. |
Note 10 | Focus spot size has effect on image spatial resolution and smaller size is helpful for resolution improvement. However, the image spatial resolution between the two kinds of devices is equivalent substantially. |
Note 11 | Provides the smaller power output that induces lower ability of x-ray penetration when scanning the object with high BMI with higher possibility of photon starvation, and the safety has been evaluated by the related testing and verification. |
Note 12 | Provides the smaller mA output that induces lower ability of x-ray penetration when scanning the object with high BMI with higher possibility of photon starvation, and the safety has been evaluated by the related testing and verification. |
Note 13 | Provides slower rotation speed that induces longer scan time for examination which does not affect safety and effectiveness. |
Note 14 | With 120 kV and 5mm slice thickness, the image noise for typical head is 3HU on CTDIvol 28.9 mGy. The image noise level is equivalent substantially considering the proposed device has measured its noise based on the smaller CTDIvol than the Predicate Device. |
Note 15 | Provides the more slice thickness that induce more choice for various clinical scan situations and thinner slice thickness should bring higher |
spatial resolution in z-plane, which does not affect safety and | |
effectiveness. |
